Support Gradle 2.0

[RoryStraubel]

Gradle has recently upgraded to version 2.0 with some important updates. This makes the jmeter plugin impossible to install. Thanks.

[staleks]

Same here.

I have installed Gradle 2.2.1 and after setting things up, I have following error:

Could not find method add() for arguments [jmeterEditor, class com.github.kulya.gradle.plugins.jmeter.JmeterRunGuiTask] on task set.

[foragerr]

Are you guys talking about the bundled gradle wrapper version?

[staleks]

No.

I have downloaded latest Gradle version 2.3.

This is the build script:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath "com.github.kulya:jmeter-gradle-plugin:1.3.1-2.6"
    }
}

apply plugin: 'jmeter'

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'

sourceCompatibility = 1.8
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
}

jmeterRun.configure {
    jmeterTestFiles = [file("src/test/jmeter/test1.jmx")]
}

And here is the error:

A problem occurred evaluating root project 'gradle-jmeter'.
> Failed to apply plugin [id 'jmeter']
   > Could not find method add() for arguments [jmeterEditor, class com.github.kulya.gradle.plugins.jmeter.JmeterRunGuiTask] on task set.

I am not using task wrapper, just plain old gradle command from command line.

Any help would be appreciated.

NOTE: of course there is test1.jmx JMeter test in src/test/jmeter/ folder.

[foragerr]

Can you please try with 1.3.2-2.6 as well?

[staleks]

Hi, I will,

but that version I don't see as released version :)

Stay tuned. I will be back to you.

[foragerr]

It is. http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.github.kulya/jmeter-gradle-plugin

While you're at it, you should up your jmeter version as well :)

[staleks]

Ok, now we are moving :)

I see that new version is uploaded to central M2 repo.

But this version is not in github: https://github.com/kulya/jmeter-gradle-plugin/releases

Or maybe I am somewhere wrong?

Anyway, now I have different error when I run

$ gradle jmeterRun

Maybe you have some idea what is wrong here?

[staleks]

If I execute this task from Eclipse IDE,

here is the "Details log"

Could not execute build using Gradle distribution 'https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.2.1-bin.zip'.

I am pretty sure that I don't have Gradle 2.2.1.

As I said previously, I am using Gradle 2.3

That might put some light on the problem :)

Thank You

[foragerr]

Ah I see, the releases page needs to be updated.

Something goes wrong when we execute jmeter test.... Please see jmeter logs for more information

The problem isn't the plugin anymore, its jmeter :) This plugin runs jmeter as a separate process, jmeter logs aren't show in the build output. You should look at the jmeter log, I believe the default location is projectfolder/build/jmeter.

[staleks]

You should look at the jmeter log, I believe the default location is projectfolder/build/jmeter.

Does it means that I need to have jmeter installed in projectFolder/build/jmeter ?

[foragerr]

No, the plugin creates the folder, and then adds a jmeter.log to it when you run gradle jmeterRun

[staleks]

You are right,

there is folder projectFolder/build/jmeter created.

And plugin creates ext and junit folders in jmeter. And further more there are two properties files saveservice.properties and upgrade.properties. But nothing more :(

I think that problem still is in this error log

Something goes wrong when we execute jmeter test.... Please see jmeter logs for more information
Could not execute build using Gradle distribution 'https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.2.1-bin.zip'.

[foragerr]

Well, you're not getting the second line when running from commandline. Eclipse gradle plugin by default picks up the wrapper version from your project folder - not certain what version it uses if wrapper isn't present in the project.

I believe gradle version isn't your problem, unfortunately you're running into #40 during jmeter launch. How do you feel about building the plugin from source?

[staleks]

OK, sorry for delay, but I had some "burning" issues on my daytime project :)

Now, I've cloned repository, build from source and got following artifacts in ${PROJECT_HOME}/build/libs folder:

• jmeter-gradle-plugin-1.3.3-2.13-SNAPSHOT.jar,
• jmeter-gradle-plugin-1.3.3-2.13-SNAPSHOT-javadoc.jar and
• jmeter-gradle-plugin-1.3.3-2.13-SNAPSHOT-sources.jar

Can you help me now how to integrate this version now in my project build script ?

Thank You

[staleks]

Following "Maven logic" (as I am coming from this world and I am new to Gradle), I guess that I need to have this JAR in ~/.m2/repository (then I can have mavenLocal() as repository for this plugin)

But building this project from source, doesn't generate pom.xml and I am afraid that just placing this JAR "jmeter-gradle-plugin-1.3.3-2.13-SNAPSHOT.jar" in ~/.m2/repostiory/com/github/kulya/jmeter-gradle-plugin/1.3.3-2.13-SNAPSHOT without having proper pom.xml

won't work for me.

Any suggestions ?

Thank You

[foragerr]

@staleks 1.3.3 and 1.3.4 binaries are now built and published to maven central - except it may take some time for them to appear there. Meanwhile you can use them from this maven repo: https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/public

1.3.3 has a different defect, you should use 1.3.4

If you still want to build from source, you can add apply plugin: 'maven' to your build.gradle file and then you would be able to run task gradle install to push jars and poms correctly to your local repo.

[staleks]

Ok, this seems working :)

just for future users:

buildscript section:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath "com.github.kulya:jmeter-gradle-plugin:1.3.4-2.13"
    }
}

and repostiories:

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven {
        url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/public"
    }
}

At least until this version is publicly available on Maven Central.

Thnx for support.

[staleks]

Now I have other problem with jmeter report in HTML format.

But let's open another issue for this.

NOTE: this one can be closed, since starting problem is not more an issue.

Thnx

[jk1]

I'm facing the same problem with 1.3.4-2.13 and gradle 2.3. My buildscript is as follows:

apply plugin: 'jmeter'

buildscript {
    repositories {mavenCentral()}

    dependencies {
        classpath "com.github.kulya:jmeter-gradle-plugin:1.3.4-2.13"
    }
}

jmeterRun.configure {
     jmeterTestFiles = [file("req.jmx")]
 }

Running ./gradlew jmeterRun returns only "Something went wrong during jmeter test execution, Please see jmeter logs for more information" with no actual log to look into. Interestingly, jmeterListTestPlan works:

:testing:jmeterListTestPlan

Jmeter Test Plan
----------------
req.jmx

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

[foragerr]

@jk1 Where is your req.jmx file located? If it is in /src/test/jmeter, then can you please comment out the jmeterTestFiles = line in your build.gradle?

[jk1]

@foragerr, thanks for looking into this. I've tried with jmeterTestFiles = ... line removed, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. Here's the minimal example, that reproduces the problem in my environment: https://github.com/jk1/Jmeter-plugin-demo

[foragerr]

@jk1 Thank for the minimal example, certainly makes debugging easier :)

I ran jmeterrun on your example and got this:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not read JMeter properties file:\src\test\jmeter\jmeter.properties
    at org.apache.jmeter.util.JMeterUtils.loadJMeterProperties(JMeterUtils.java:193)

An error occurred: Could not read JMeter properties file:\src\test\jmeter\jmeter.properties
:jmeterRun FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

This is a known issue #38 , fix is waiting for a pull request #47 to be accepted.

The workaround is to add a jmeter.properties file in either /src/test/jmeter or using jmeterPropertyFile setting, to point to a properties file. Even a blank properties file is fine.

I'm more curious about why you didn't see the error stack trace when you ran jmeterRun. try running gradle with --info or --debug?

[jk1]

@foragerr, that's a good question. I've tried the same code in a clean virtual environment and it works exactly as you're describing, printing:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not read JMeter properties file:/home/user/test/jmeter.properties
        at org.apache.jmeter.util.JMeterUtils.loadJMeterProperties(JMeterUtils.java:193)
        at org.apache.jmeter.JMeter.initializeProperties(JMeter.java:527)
        at org.apache.jmeter.JMeter.start(JMeter.java:299)

so I suppose it's an issue with my laptop or OS configuration and not with the plugin. Thanks a lot for your helpful advice, with jmeter.properties in place it seems to be working quite fine.
