| |
| |
| <h2 class="ch_category">New Elements</h2> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">New Async BackendListener with Graphite implementation</h3> |
| <p>A new Async BackendListener has been added to allow sending result data to a backend listener. |
| JMeter ships with a GraphiteBackendListenerClient that allows sending results to a <a href="http://graphite.wikidot.com/" target="_blank">Graphite</a> server using Pickle or Plaintext protocols. |
| You can implement your own backend by extending <a href="./api/org/apache/jmeter/visualizers/backend/AbstractBackendListenerClient.html">AbstractBackendListenerClient</a>. This backend could be |
| a database (JDBC), a Message Oriented Middleware (JMS), a Webservice or anything you want. |
| </p> |

| <p>This is the kind of Live Dashboard you can obtain using <a href="http://grafana.org/" target="_blank">Grafana</a> and <a href="http://influxdb.com/" target="_blank">InfluxDB</a><br> |
| Read <a href="./usermanual/realtime-results.html">this</a> for more details.</p> |

| |
| <h2 class="ch_category">Core Improvements</h2> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">New connect time metric</h3> |
| <p>Starting with this version a new metric called connectTime has been added. It represents the time to establish connection. |
| By default it is not saved to CSV or XML, to have it saved add to user.properties:<br> |
| <span class="code"> |
| jmeter.save.saveservice.connect_time=true |
| </span> |
| </p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/connect_time_table.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/connect_time_table.png" width="1058" height="193" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |

| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Aggregate Graph and Report</h3> |
| <p>The listeners Aggregate Graph and Aggregate Report previously showed only the 90 percentile (historical behavior), the 95 percentile and the 99 percentile have been added and are customizable. |
| To setup the percentiles value you want, add to user.properties:<br> |
| <span class="code"> |
| aggregate_rpt_pct1=90<br> |
| aggregate_rpt_pct2=95<br> |
| aggregate_rpt_pct3=99 |
| </span> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/aggregate_graph_new_percentile.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/aggregate_graph_new_percentile.png" width="801" height="681" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder</h3> |
| <p>Now component is able to detect authentication schemes and automatically adds a pre-configured HTTP Authorization Manager with the correct Mechanism. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">HTTP Request</h3> |
| <p>The CalDAV verbs (Calendar extensions to WebDAV) REPORT and MKCALENDAR have been added in the HTTP Request sampler. |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/new_methods_caldav.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/new_methods_caldav.png" width="716" height="324" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">JDBC Request</h3> |
| <p>The ResultSet can be get as a object, this allows to handle more easily the results after in BeanShell, JSR223 scripts, … |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/jdbc_resultset_handler.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/jdbc_resultset_handler.png" width="683" height="628" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Distributed Testing</h3> |
| <p>To allow better usage of Distributed Testing in the cloud, retry behaviour has been added when starting test on servers. |
| Read <a href="./usermanual/remote-test.html#retries">this</a> for more details. |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/distributed_retry.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/distributed_retry.png" width="669" height="202" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Distributed Testing performance</h3> |
| <p>Since JMeter 2.13, Stripping modes (StrippingBatch being the default mode) now also strip responses from SubResults improving consumed network bandwidth. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Documentation refresh</h3> |
| <p>A new style for website (responsive and more up to date) has been created by Felix Schumacher. |
| Documentations have been refreshed particularly: |
| <ul> |
| <li><a href="./usermanual/build-ws-test-plan.html">Building a Webservice Test Plan</a></li> |
| <li><a href="./usermanual/best-practices.html">Best Practices</a></li> |
| <li><a href="./usermanual/boss.html">Help! My boss wants me to load test our application!</a></li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2 class="ch_category">GUI Improvements</h2> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Module Controller</h3> |
| <p>The Module Controller now shows the target controller in a tree view (instead of combo list). |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/module_controller_tree_view.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/module_controller_tree_view.png" width="306" height="372" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Toolbar</h3> |
| <p>JMeter's toolbar has been refreshed for some icons (start, toggle, etc.). Three sizes are now available for the icons: 22x22, 32x32 and 48x48.<br> |
| The property to define your preferred size is: |
| <pre>jmeter.toolbar.icons.size=value</pre> |
| with the value 22x22 (default size), 32x32 or 48x48.</p> |
| <p>The toolbar with 22x22 pixels icons |

| </p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder</h3> |
| <p>If your Test Plan does not contains a Recording Controller, a new warning message will appear if the |
| HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder is configured to send the samples into a Recording Controller. |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/warning_message_proxy.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.13/warning_message_proxy.png" width="858" height="386" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |

| <li>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |

| |
| <li> |
| The numbers that appear to the left of the green box are the number of active threads / total number of threads, |

| Note that there is a <a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6396599 ">bug in Java</a> |
| on some Linux systems that manifests itself as the following error when running the test cases or JMeter itself: |
| <pre> |
| [java] WARNING: Couldn't flush user prefs: |
| java.util.prefs.BackingStoreException: |
| java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Not supported: indent-number |
| </pre> |
| This does not affect JMeter operation. This issue is fixed since Java 7b05. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| Note that under some windows systems you may have this WARNING: |

| WARNING: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs at root 0 |
| x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(…) returned error code 5. |
| </pre> |
| The fix is to run JMeter as Administrator, it will create the registry key for you, then you can restart JMeter as a normal user and you won't have the warning anymore. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| With Java 1.6 and Gnome 3 on Linux systems, the JMeter menu may not work correctly (shift between mouse's click and the menu). |
| This is a known Java bug (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54477"> |
| Bug |

| A workaround is to use a Java 7 runtime (OpenJDK or Oracle JDK). |

| This is a known Java bug, see Bug <a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8000629">JDK-8000629</a>. |

| You may encounter the following error: <i>java.security.cert.CertificateException: Certificates does not conform to algorithm constraints</i> |
| if you run a HTTPS request on a web site with a SSL certificate (itself or one of SSL certificates in its chain of trust) with a signature |
| algorithm using MD2 (like md2WithRSAEncryption) or with a SSL certificate with a size lower than 1024 bits. |
| This error is related to increased security in Java 7 version u16 (MD2) and version u40 (Certificate size lower than 1024 bits), and Java 8 too. |
| <br> |
| To allow you to perform your HTTPS request, you can downgrade the security of your Java installation by editing |
| the Java <b>jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms</b> property. Remove the MD2 value or the constraint on size, depending on your case. |

| <h2 class="ch_section" id="New and Noteworthy">New and Noteworthy</h2> |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Java 8 support</h3> |
| <p>Now, JMeter 2.12 is compliant with Java 8.</p> |
| |
| <h2 class="ch_category">New Elements</h2> |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Critical Section Controller</h3> |
| <p>The Critical Section Controller allow to serialize the execution of a section in your tree. |
| Only one instance of the section will be executed at the same time during the test.</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/01_critical_section_controller.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/01_critical_section_controller.png" width="683" height="240" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">DNS Cache Manager</h3> |
| <p>The new configuration element <b>DNS Cache Manager</b>(see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56841"> |
| Bug |
| 56841</a>) improves the testing of: |
| <ul> |
| <li>CDN (Content Delivery Network)</li> |
| <li>DNS load balancing.</li> |
| <li>Load Balancers like Amazon Elastic Load Balancer</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/02_dns_cache_manager.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/02_dns_cache_manager.png" width="573" height="359" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| <h2 class="ch_category">Core Improvements</h2> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Smarter Recording of Http Test Plans</h3> |
| <p>Test Script Recorder has been improved in many ways</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Better matching of Variables in Requests, making Test Script Recorder variabilize your sampler during recording more versatile</li> |
| <li>Ability to filter from View Results Tree the Samples that are excluded from recording, this lets you concentrate on recorded Samplers analysis and not bother with useless Sample Results |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/14_recorder_filter.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/14_recorder_filter.png" width="1094" height="647" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </li> |
| <li>Better defaults for recording, since this version Recorder will number created Samplers letting you find them much easily in View Results Tree. |
| Grouping of Samplers under Transaction Controller will be smarter making all requests emitted by a web page be children as new Transaction Controller</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Support of Webdav requests</h3> |
| <p>You can now test against WebDav server using HttpClient4 Implementation of Http Request</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/13_webdav.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/13_webdav.png" width="989" height="406" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Better handling of embedded resources</h3> |
| <p>When download embedded resources is checked, JMeter now uses User Agent header to download or not resources embedded within conditional comments as per <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms537512%28v=vs.85%29.aspx" target="_blank">About conditional comments</a>.</p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Ability to customize Cache Manager (Browser cache simulation) handling of cached resources</h3> |
| <p>You can now configure the behaviour of JMeter when a resource is found in Cache, this can be controlled with <i>cache_manager.cached_resource_mode</i> property</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/12_cache_resource_mode.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/12_cache_resource_mode.png" width="1024" height="314" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">JMS Publisher / JMS Point-to-Point</h3> |
| <p> Add JMSPriority and JMSExpiration fields for these samplers.</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/04_jms_publisher.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/04_jms_publisher.png" width="877" height="314" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |

| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Mail Reader Sampler</h3> |
| <p>You can now specify the number of messages that want you retrieve (before all messages were retrieved). |
| In addition, you can fetch only the message header now.</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/03_mail_reader_sampler.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/03_mail_reader_sampler.png" width="814" height="416" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">SMTP Sampler</h3> |
| <p>Adding the Connection timeout and the Read timeout to the <b>SMTP Sampler.</b></p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/06_smtp_sampler.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/06_smtp_sampler.png" width="796" height="192" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Synchronizing Timer </h3> |
| <p>Adding a timeout to define the maximum time to waiting of the group of virtual users.</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/09_synchronizing_timer.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/09_synchronizing_timer.png" width="546" height="144" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Performance improvements</h3> |
| <p>A big improvement in performances of Functions has been made by lifting useless synchronization. It concerns all functions except __StringFromFile, __XPath and __BeanShell, see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57114"> |
| Bug |
| 57114</a></p> |
| <p>__jexl2 performances have been improved to avoid contention point, see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56708"> |
| Bug |
| 56708</a></p> |
| |
| <h2 class="ch_category">GUI Improvements</h2> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Undo/Redo support</h3> |
| <p>Undo / Redo has been introduced and allows user to undo/redo changes made on Test Plan Tree. This feature (ALPHA MODE) is disabled by default, to enable it set property <b>undo.history.size=25</b> </p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/10_undo_redo.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/10_undo_redo.png" width="1024" height="56" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">View Results Tree</h3> |
| <p>Improve the ergonomics of View Results Tree by changing placement of Renderers and allowing custom ordering |
| (with the property <i>view.results.tree.renderers_order</i>).</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/07_view_results_tree.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/07_view_results_tree.png" width="900" height="329" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Response Time Graph</h3> |
| <p>Adding the ability for the <b>Response Time Graph</b> listener to save/restore format its settings in/from the jmx file.</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/08_response_time_graph.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/08_response_time_graph.png" width="997" height="574" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">Log Viewer</h3> |
| <p>Starting with this version, the last lines of JMeter's log file (jmeter.log) can be viewed directly in GUI by clicking on Warning icon in the upper right corner. |
| This will unfold the Log Viewer panel and show logs.</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/11_log_viewer.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.12/11_log_viewer.png" width="1024" height="437" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">File Opening</h3> |
| <p>Now, "Open File dialog" uses last opened file folder as start folder, see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52707"> |

| <h3 class="ch_title">HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder improvements</h3> |
| <p> |
| Following improvements have been made since major changes introduced in JMeter 2.10 on HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder: |
| <ul> |
| <li>Better detection of missing or invalid configuration of keytool utility</li> |
| <li>New system property keytool.directory (see system.properties) lets you configure directory containing keytool in case on non-standard installation</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3 class="ch_title">JMS Publisher/Point to Point : Add ability to set typed values in JMS header properties</h3> |
| <p>In the samplers JMS Publisher and JMS Point-to-Point, you can now set up the class of values for the JMS header properties. Previously only String was possible.</p> |
| <p> |

| |
| <ul> |
| <li>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</li> |
| |
| <li>Listeners don't show iteration counts when a If Controller has a condition which is always false from the first iteration (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52496"> |
| Bug |
| 52496</a>). |
| A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller. |
| For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample), |
| or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size). |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| The numbers that appear to the left of the green box are the number of active threads / total number of threads, |
| the total number of threads only applies to a locally run test, otherwise it will show 0 (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55510"> |
| Bug |

| Note that there is a <a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6396599 ">bug in Java</a> |
| on some Linux systems that manifests itself as the following error when running the test cases or JMeter itself: |
| <pre> |
| [java] WARNING: Couldn't flush user prefs: |
| java.util.prefs.BackingStoreException: |
| java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Not supported: indent-number |
| </pre> |
| This does not affect JMeter operation. This issue is fixed since Java 7b05. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| With Java 1.6 and Gnome 3 on Linux systems, the JMeter menu may not work correctly (shift between mouse's click and the menu). |
| This is a known Java bug (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54477 "> |
| Bug |
| 54477 </a>). |
| A workaround is to use a Java 7 runtime (OpenJDK or Oracle JDK). |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| With Oracle Java 7 and Mac Book Pro Retina Display, the JMeter GUI may look blurry. |
| This is a known Java bug, see Bug <a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8000629">JDK-8000629</a>. |
| A workaround is to use a Java 7 update 40 runtime which fixes this issue. |

| |
| <ul> |
| <li>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</li> |
| |
| <li>Listeners don't show iteration counts when a If Controller has a condition which is always false from the first iteration (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52496"> |
| Bug |
| 52496</a>). |
| A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller. |
| For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample), |
| or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size). |
| </li> |
| |
| <li>Webservice sampler does not consider the HTTP response status to compute the status of a response, thus a response 500 containing a non empty body will be considered as successful, see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54006"> |
| Bug |
| 54006</a>. |
| To workaround this issue, ensure you always read the response and add a Response Assertion checking text inside the response. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| The numbers that appear to the left of the green box are the number of active threads / total number of threads, |
| these only apply to a locally run test; they do not include any threads started on remote systems when using client-server mode, (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54152"> |

| Note that there is a <a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6396599 ">bug in Java</a> |
| on some Linux systems that manifests itself as the following error when running the test cases or JMeter itself: |
| <pre> |
| [java] WARNING: Couldn't flush user prefs: |
| java.util.prefs.BackingStoreException: |
| java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Not supported: indent-number |
| </pre> |
| This does not affect JMeter operation. This issue is fixed since Java 7b05. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| With Java 1.6 and Gnome 3 on Linux systems, the JMeter menu may not work correctly (shift between mouse's click and the menu). |
| This is a known Java bug (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54477 "> |
| Bug |

| A workaround is to use a Java 7 runtime (OpenJDK or Oracle JDK). |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| With Oracle Java 7 and Mac Book Pro Retina Display, the JMeter GUI may look blurry. |
| This is a known Java bug, see Bug <a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8000629">JDK-8000629</a>. |
| A workaround is to use a Java 7 update 40 runtime which fixes this issue. |

| <ul> |
| <li><b>SMTP Sampler</b> now uses eml file subject if subject field is empty</li> |
| |
| <li>With this version autoFlush has been turned off on PrintWriter in charge of writing test results. |
| This results in improved throughput for intensive tests but can result in more test data loss in case |
| of JMeter crash (extremely rare). To revert to previous behaviour set <span class="code">jmeter.save.saveservice.autoflush</span> property to <span class="code">true</span>.</li> |
| |
| <li> |
| Shortcut for <b>Function Helper Dialog</b> is now <i>CTRL+SHIFT+F1 (CMD + SHIFT + F1 for Mac OS)</i>. |
| The original key sequence <i>(Ctrl+F1)</i> did not work in some locations (it is consumed by the Java Swing ToolTipManager). |
| It was therefore necessary to change the shortcut. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <b>Webservice (SOAP) Request</b> has been removed by default from GUI as Element is deprecated. (Use <b>HTTP Request</b> |
| with <i>Body Data</i>, see also the Template <i>Building a SOAP Webservice Test Plan</i>), if you need to show it, see property <span class="code">not_in_menu</span> in <i>jmeter.properties</i> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <b>Transaction Controller</b> now sets <i>Response Code</i> of <i>Generated Parent Sampler</i> |
| (if <i>Generated Parent Sampler</i> is checked) to response code of first failing child in case of failure of one of the children, in previous versions <i>Response Code</i> was empty. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| In previous versions, <b>IncludeController</b> could run Test Elements located inside a <b>Thread Group</b>, this behaviour (<i>which was not documented</i>) |
| could result in weird behaviour, it has been removed in this version (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55464"> |
| Bug |
| 55464</a>). |
| The correct way to include Test Elements is to use <b>Test Fragment</b> as stated in documentation of <b>Include Controller</b>. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| The retry count for the HttpClient 3.1 and HttpClient 4.x samplers has been changed to <b>0</b>. |
| Previously the default was 1, which could cause unexpected additional traffic. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li>Starting with this version, the <b>HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder</b> tries to detect when a sample is the result of a previous |
| redirect. If the current response is a redirect, JMeter will save the redirect URL. When the next request is received, |
| it is compared with the saved redirect URL and if there is a match, JMeter will disable the generated sample. |
| To revert to previous behaviour, set the property <span class="code">proxy.redirect.disabling=false</span> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li>Starting with this version, in <b>HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder</b> if Grouping is set to <i>Put each group in a new Transaction Controller</i>, |
| the Recorder will create <b>Transaction Controller</b> instances with <i>Include duration of timer and pre-post processors in generated sample</i> set |
| to false. This default value reflect more accurately response time. |
| </li> |
| |
| <li><span class="code">__escapeOroRegexpChars</span> function (which escapes ORO reserved characters) no longer trims the value (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55328"> |

| </li> |
| |
| <li>The <i>commons-lang-2.6.jar</i> has been removed from embedded libraries in <span class="code">jmeter/lib</span> folder as it is not needed by JMeter at run-time |
| (it is only used by Apache Velocity for generating documentation). |

| </p> |
| |
| <h4>* A new Regex User Parameters Pre-Processor that enables injecting input parameter names and values |
| using a reference extracted by Regular Expression Extractor from a previous response</h4> |
| <p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/13_regex_user_params.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/13_regex_user_params.png" width="727" height="138" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>* TCP Sampler: new options</h4> |
| <p>TCP Sampler has been enhanced with new options to allow setting <b>Close Connection</b>, |
| <b>SO_LINGER</b> and <b>End of line(EOL) byte value</b> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/03_new_options_tcp_sampler.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/03_new_options_tcp_sampler.png" width="1147" height="302" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |

| </p> |
| |
| <h4>* JMS Publisher: new option</h4> |
| <p>JMS Publisher can now send Bytes Messages</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/11_jms_publisher_bytes.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/11_jms_publisher_bytes.png" width="833" height="701" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <h4>* Memory and performance improvements</h4> |
| <p>Significant improvements have been done in this version on memory usage per Thread and CPU when more |
| than one Post Processor is used as child of a Sampler</p> |
| <p>JSR223 Elements (enable using Groovy, Scala, … as scripting languages) have been improved to enable caching |
| of Compilation results when scripts are passed in Text area</p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/12_jsr223_sampler.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/12_jsr223_sampler.png" width="841" height="470" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| |
| <p>Some configuration defaults have changed to improve performances by default(see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54412"> |
| Bug |
| 54412</a>), |
| see description in New and Noteworthy section. |
| <ul> |
| <li>Distributed testing now uses MODE_STRIPPED_BATCH, which returns samples in batch mode (every 100 samples |
| or every minute by default). Note also that MODE_STRIPPED_BATCH strips response data from SampleResult, |
| so if you need it change to another mode (mode property in jmeter.properties)</li> |
| <li>Result data are now saved to CSV by default (jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format in jmeter.properties)</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>* XPath Assertion now enables using a JMeter variable as input</h4> |
| <p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/14_xpath_assertion.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/14_xpath_assertion.png" width="800" height="317" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3><u>GUI and ergonomy Improvements:</u></h3> |
| <h4>* Search feature has been improved to search within more internal fields of elements and expand search results</h4> |
| <h4>* Copy/paste is now possible between 2 JMeter instances >= 2.9 version</h4> |
| <p>Copy element(s) from one JMeter instance: |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/06_copy_paste_between_2_jmeter1.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/06_copy_paste_between_2_jmeter1.png" width="618" height="262" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| <p>Paste element(s) into a second JMeter instance: |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/06_copy_paste_between_2_jmeter2.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/06_copy_paste_between_2_jmeter2.png" width="617" height="278" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| <h4>* HTTP Header Manager</h4> |
| <p>Allow copy from clipboard to HeaderPanel, headers are supposed to be separated by new line |
| and have the following form <i>name:value</i> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/07_header_panel_add_from_clipboard.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/07_header_panel_add_from_clipboard.png" width="661" height="263" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| <h4>* Module Controller</h4> |
| <p>Module Controller has been improved to better render referenced controller and expand it by clicking on a new button |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/08_module_controller_improvements.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/08_module_controller_improvements.png" width="832" height="274" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| <h4>* HTTP Proxy Server</h4> |
| <p>HTTP Proxy Server now has a button to add a set of default exclusions for URL patterns, |
| this list can be configured through property : <i>proxy.excludes.suggested</i> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/09_proxy_excludes_suggested.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/09_proxy_excludes_suggested.png" width="811" height="214" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| <h4>* Rendering of target controller has been improved in HTTP Proxy Server</h4> |
| |
| <h3><u>HTTP Proxy Server recording:</u></h3> |
| <p>* HTTP Proxy Server now automatically uses HTTP Request with Raw Post Body mode for |
| samples that only have one unnamed argument (JSON, XML, GWT, …)</p> |
| <p>* HTTP Proxy Server does not force user to select the type of Sampler in HTTP Sampler Settings, |
| this allows easier switch between implementations as Sampler do not have this information set anymore</p> |
| <p> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/10_http_proxy_dont_force_http_type.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.9/10_http_proxy_dont_force_http_type.png" width="484" height="307" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| <p>* SamplerCreator interface has been enriched to meet new requirements for plug-in providers</p> |
| <p>* It is now possible to create binary sampler for x-www-form-urlencoded POST request by |
| modifying <i>proxy.binary.types</i> property to add application/x-www-form-urlencoded </p> |
| <p>* Improved timestamp format auto-detection when reading CSV files</p> |
| |
| |
| |
| <h2>Known bugs</h2> |
| |
| <p>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p> |
| |
| <p>Listeners don't show iteration counts when a If Controller has a condition which is always false from the first iteration (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52496"> |
| Bug |
| 52496</a>). |
| A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller. |
| For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample), |
| or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size). |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Webservice sampler does not consider the HTTP response status to compute the status of a response, thus a response 500 containing a non empty body will be considered as successful, see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54006"> |
| Bug |
| 54006</a>. |
| To workaround this issue, ensure you always read the response and add a Response Assertion checking text inside the response. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Changing language can break part of the configuration of the following elements (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53679"> |
| Bug |
| 53679</a>): |
| <ul> |
| <li>CSV Data Set Config (sharing mode will be lost)</li> |
| <li>Constant Throughput Timer (Calculate throughput based on will be lost)</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The numbers that appear to the left of the green box are the number of active threads / total number of threads, |
| these only apply to a locally run test; they do not include any threads started on remote systems when using client-server mode, (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54152"> |
| Bug |
| 54152</a>). |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Note that there is a bug in Java on some Linux systems that manifests |
| itself as the following error when running the test cases or JMeter itself: |
| <pre> |
| [java] WARNING: Couldn't flush user prefs: |
| java.util.prefs.BackingStoreException: |
| java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Not supported: indent-number |
| </pre> |
| This does not affect JMeter operation. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| |
| <h2>Incompatible changes</h2> |
| |
| <p><b>JMeter requires now a Java 6 runtime or higher.</b></p> |
| |
| <p>Some configuration defaults have changed to improve performances by default (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54412"> |
| Bug |
| 54412</a>), |
| see description in New and Noteworthy section.</p> |
| |
| <p>Webservice sampler now adds to request the headers that are set through Header Manager, these were previously ignored</p> |
| |
| <p><i>jdbcsampler.cachesize</i> property has been removed, it previously limited the size of a per connection cache of Map < String, |
| PreparedStatement > , it also limited the size of this |
| map which held the PreparedStatement for SQL queries. This limitation provoked a bug <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53995"> |
| Bug |
| 53995</a>. |
| It has been removed so now size of these 2 maps is not limited anymore. This change changes behaviour as starting from |
| this version no PreparedStatement will be closed during the test.</p> |
| |
| <p>Starting with this version, there are some important changes on JSR223 Test Elements: |
| <ul> |
| <li>JSR223 Test Elements that have an invalid filename (not existing or unreadable) will make test fail instead of |
| making the element silently work</li> |
| <li>In JSR223 Test Elements: responseCodeOk, responseMessageOK and successful are set before |
| script is executed, if responseData is set it will not be overriden anymore by a toString() on script return value</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>View Results Tree now considers response with missing content type as text.</p> |
| |
| <p>In remote Test mode, JMeter now exits in error if one of the remote engines cannot be configured, |
| previously it started the test with available engines.</p> |
| |

| <h1>Version 2.8</h1> |
| |
| <h2>New and Noteworthy</h2> |
| |
| <h3>Core Improvements:</h3> |
| |
| <h4>Thread Group: New Option <i>Delay thread creation until needed</i></h4> |
| <p>New Option "Delay thread creation until needed" that will create and start threads when needed instead of creating them on Test startup<br> |
| <b>This new feature allows running tests with a huge number of short lived threads.</b> |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/12_delay_thread_creation.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/12_delay_thread_creation.png" width="817" height="296" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>HTTP Cookie Manager (IPv6 support)</h4> |
| <p>Add HTTPClient 4 cookie implementation in JMeter. <br> |
| Cookie Manager has now the default HC3.1 implementation and a new choice HC4 implementation (compliant with IPv6 address) |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/11_hc4_cookie.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/11_hc4_cookie.png" width="635" height="239" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>Memory and performance improvements</h4> |
| <p>Significant improvements have been done in this version on memory usage of JMeterThread</p> |
| <p>JSR223 Elements (enable using Groovy, scala, … as scripting languages) have been improved to enable: |
| <ul> |
| <li>usage of Compilable interface when available to boost CPU usage</li> |
| <li>caching of Compilation when scripts are used as Files</li> |
| </ul> |
| See <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/jmeter/JMeterPerformance">JMeter Performances across versions</a> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>OS Process Sampler</h4> |
| <p>Allow defining files for stdout/stderr/stdin. |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/06_os_sampler_stdout-err-in.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/06_os_sampler_stdout-err-in.png" width="820" height="531" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>HTTP Request: PATCH verb</h4> |
| <p>Add PATCH verb to HTTP sampler |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/01_http_patch_verb.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/01_http_patch_verb.png" width="615" height="340" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>HTTP Request: HTTPClient 4 is now the default implementation</h4> |
| <p>HTTPClient 4 is now the default HTTP Request implementation (and for Proxy element when generating HTTP requests).<br> |
| Previously the default was the HTTP Java implementation (i.e. the implementation provided by the JVM) |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/02_http_default_hc4.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/02_http_default_hc4.png" width="558" height="288" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>HTTP Request</h4> |
| <p>Add Embedded URL Filter to HTTP Request Defaults Control (it was already present for HTTP Requests) |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/05_http_defaults_url_filter.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/05_http_defaults_url_filter.png" width="586" height="682" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>Miscellanous</h4> |
| <ul> |
| <li>CSV Dataset : Embedded new lines are now supported in quoted data</li> |
| <li>JMX files now contain the version of JMeter that created the file</li> |
| <li>JMeter Version is now available as property "jmeter.version"</li> |
| </ul> |
| <h3>Reporting Improvements:</h3> |
| |
| <h4>Response Time Graph</h4> |
| <p>Add a new visualizer Response Time Graph to draw a line graph showing the evolution of response time for a test |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/09_resp_time_graph.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/09_resp_time_graph.png" width="993" height="549" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |

| </p> |
| |
| <h4>View Results in Table</h4> |
| <p>Add latency to View Result in Table listener |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/10_latency_view_results_table.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/10_latency_view_results_table.png" width="998" height="324" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>Aggregate Graph</h4> |
| <p>Small improvements: legend at left or right is now on 1 column (instead of 1 large line), … |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/07_aggregate_graph_legend_left_right.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/07_aggregate_graph_legend_left_right.png" width="989" height="418" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3>GUI and ergonomy Improvements:</h3> |
| <h4>HTTP Proxy Server simplifications</h4> |
| <p>HTTPS Spoofing options have been removed from Proxy as HTTPS recording is directly available since JMeter 2.4. |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/03_remove_https_spoofing1.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/03_remove_https_spoofing1.png" width="940" height="277" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>HTTP Proxy Server</h4> |
| <p>Allow URL Filters to be pasted from clipboard |
| <figure><a href="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/15_add_from_clipboard_filter.png"><img src="./images/screenshots/changes/2.8/15_add_from_clipboard_filter.png" width="707" height="614" alt=""></a><figcaption></figcaption></figure> |
| </p> |
| |

| <h2>Known bugs</h2> |
| |
| <p>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p> |
| |
| <p>Listeners don't show iteration counts when a If Controller has a condition which is always false from the first iteration (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52496"> |
| Bug |
| 52496</a>). |
| A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller. |
| For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample), |
| or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size). |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Changing language can break part of the configuration of the following elements (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53679"> |
| Bug |
| 53679</a>): |
| <ul> |
| <li>CSV Data Set Config (sharing mode will be lost)</li> |
| <li>Constant Throughput Timer (Calculate throughput based on will be lost)</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Note that there is a bug in Java on some Linux systems that manifests |
| itself as the following error when running the test cases or JMeter itself: |
| <pre> |
| [java] WARNING: Couldn't flush user prefs: |
| java.util.prefs.BackingStoreException: |
| java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Not supported: indent-number |
| </pre> |
| This does not affect JMeter operation. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| |
| <h2>Incompatible changes</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| When using CacheManager, JMeter now caches responses for GET queries provided header Cache-Control is different from "no-cache" as described in specification. |
| Furthermore it doesn't put anymore in Cache deprecated entries for "no-cache" responses. See <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53521"> |
| Bug |
| 53521</a> and <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53522"> |
| Bug |
| 53522</a> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| A major change has occurred on JSR223 Test Elements, previously variables set up before script execution where stored in ScriptEngineManager which was created once per execution, |
| now ScriptEngineManager is a singleton shared by all JSR223 elements and only ScriptEngine is created once per execution, variables set up before script execution are now stored |
| in Bindings created on each execution, see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53365"> |
| Bug |
| 53365</a>. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| JSR223 Test Elements using Script file are now Compiled if ScriptEngine supports this feature, see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53520"> |
| Bug |
| 53520</a>. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Shortcut for Function Helper Dialog is now CTRL+F1 (CMD + F1 for Mac OS), CTRL+F (CMD+F1 for Mac OS) now opens Search Dialog. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| By default, the TestCompiler now stores details of which pairs it has seen in Controller instances rather than in a static Set. |
| [<a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53796"> |
| Bug |
| 53796</a>] |
| This gives much better memory behaviour for delayed start test plans, as memory used is proportional to the number of concurrent threads. |
| With the static Set memory usage was proportional to the total thread count. |
| This change is very unlikely to cause a problem. |
| The original behaviour can be restored by setting the property <span class="code">TestCompiler.useStaticSet=true</span> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| HTTPS Spoofing options have been removed from Proxy as HTTPS recording is directly available since JMeter 2.4. |

| <pre>public boolean applies(ConfigTestElement configElement);</pre> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>New interface org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.proxy.SamplerCreator to allow plugging HTTP based samplers that differ from default HTTP Samplers through Proxy during Recording Phase (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52674"> |

| <h2>Known bugs</h2> |
| |
| <p>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p> |
| |
| <p>Listeners don't show iteration counts when a If Controller has a condition which is always false from the first iteration (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52496"> |
| Bug |
| 52496</a>). |
| A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller. |
| For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample), |
| or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size). |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| |
| <h2>Incompatible changes</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| When doing replacement of User Defined Variables, Proxy will not substitute partial values anymore when "Regexp matching" is used. It will use Perl 5 word matching ("\b") |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| In User Defined Variables, Test Plan, HTTP Sampler Arguments Table, Java Request Defaults, JMS Sampler and Publisher, LDAP Request Defaults and LDAP Extended Request Defaults, rows with |
| empty Name and Value are no more saved. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| JMeter now expands the Test Plan tree to the testplan level and no further and selects the root of the tree. Furthermore default value of onload.expandtree is false. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Graph Full Results Listener has been removed. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| When calling "Clear All" command, if Log Viewer is displayed its content will be cleared. |
| </p> |

| <h2>Known bugs</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Include Controller has some problems in non-GUI mode (see Bugs 40671, 41286, 44973, 50898). |
| In particular, it can cause a NullPointerException if there are two include controllers with the same name. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p> |
| |
| <p>Listeners don't show iteration counts when a If Controller has a condition which is always false from the first iteration (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52496"> |
| Bug |
| 52496</a>). |
| A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller. |
| For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample), |
| or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size). |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| |
| <h2>Incompatible changes</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| JMeter versions since 2.1 failed to create a container sample when loading embedded resources. |
| This has been corrected; can still revert to the <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51939"> |
| Bug |
| 51939</a> behaviour by setting the following property: |
| <span class="code">httpsampler.separate.container=false</span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Mirror server now uses default port 8081, was 8080 before 2.5.1. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| TCP Sampler handles SocketTimeoutException, SocketException and InterruptedIOException differently since 2.6, when |
| these occurs, Sampler is marked as failed. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Sample Sender implementations now resolve their configuration on Client side since 2.6. |
| This behaviour can be changed with property sample_sender_client_configured (set it to false). |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The HTTP User Parameter Modifier test element has been removed; it has been deprecated for a long time. |
| </p> |

| <h1>Version 2.5.1</h1> |
| |
| <h2>Summary of main changes</h2> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li>HttpClient4 sampler now re-uses connections properly (previously it would use one per sample, which could quickly cause resource exhaustion).</li> |
| <li>Various fixes to JMS samplers</li> |
| <li>Functions are no longer spuriously invoked when used with a Configuration element</li> |
| <li>WebService sampler GUI has been re-organized for better design and more user-friendliness. Some improments on WSDL configuration assistant</li> |
| <li>Better handling of test shutdown. System.exit now only called if there is no other option; even this can be disabled.</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| |
| <h2>Known bugs</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Include Controller has some problems in non-GUI mode. |
| In particular, it can cause a NullPointerException if there are two include controllers with the same name. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p> |
| |
| <p>The If Controller may cause an infinite loop if the condition is always false from the first iteration. |
| A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller. |
| For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample), |
| or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size). |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The menu item Options / Choose Language does not change all the displayed text to the new language. |
| [The behaviour has improved, but language change is still not fully working] |
| To override the default local language fully, set the JMeter property "language" before starting JMeter. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2>Incompatible changes</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| The HttpClient4 and Commons HttpClient 3.1 samplers previously used a retry count of 3. |
| This has been changed to default to 1, to be compatible with the Java implementation. |
| The retry count can be overridden by setting the relevant JMeter property, for example: |
| <pre> |
| httpclient4.retrycount=3 |
| httpclient3.retrycount=3 |
| </pre> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2>Bug fixes</h2> |

| ProxyControl.getSamplerTypeName() now returns a String rather than an int. |
| This is internal to the workings of the JMeter Proxy & its GUI, so should not affect any user code. |

| <h1>Version 2.4</h1> |
| |
| <h2>Summary of main changes</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>JMeter now requires at least Java 1.5.</li> |
| <li>HTTP Proxy can now record HTTPS sessions.</li> |
| <li>JUnit sampler now supports JUnit4 annotations.</li> |
| <li>Added JSR223 (javax.script) test elements.</li> |
| <li>MailReader Sampler can now use any protocol supported by the underlying implementation.</li> |
| <li>An SMTP Sampler has been added.</li> |
| <li>JMeter now allows users to provide their own Thread Group implementations.</li> |
| <li>View Results Tree now supports more display options, including search and Regex Testing.</li> |
| <li>StatCalculator performance is much improved; Aggregate Report etc. need far less memory.</li> |
| <li> |
| JMS samplers have been extensively reworked, and should no longer lose messages. |
| Correlation processing is improved. |
| JMS Publisher and Subscriber now support both Topics and Queues. |
| </li> |
| <li>Many other improvements have been made, please see below and in the manual.</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| <h2>Known bugs</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Include Controller has some problems in non-GUI mode. |
| In particular, it can cause a NullPointerException if there are two include controllers with the same name. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The menu item Options / Choose Language does not change all the displayed text to the new language. |
| [The behaviour has improved, but language change is still not fully working] |
| To override the default local language fully, set the JMeter property "language" before starting JMeter. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2>Incompatible changes</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| HTTP Redirect now defaults to "Follow Redirects" rather than "Redirect Automatically". |
| This is to enable JMeter to track cookies that may be sent during redirects. |
| This does not affect existing test plans; it only affects the default for new HTTP Samplers. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Avalon file format for JMX and JTL files is no longer supported. |
| Any such files will need to be converted by reading them in JMeter 2.3.4 and resaving them. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The XPath Assertion and XPath Extractor elements no longer fetch external DTDs by default; this can be changed in the GUI. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| JMSConfigGui has been renamed as JMSSamplerGui. |
| This does not affect existing test plans. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The constructor public SampleResult(SampleResult res) has been changed to become a true "copy constructor". |
| It no longer calls addSubResult(). This may possibly affect some 3rd party add-ons. |
| </p> |

| |
| <h1>Version 2.3.3</h1> |
| |
| <h2>Summary of main changes</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| The handling of test closedown is much improved. |
| The gradual "Shutdown" command now waits until all threads have stopped, |
| and does not report an error if threads don't stop within 5 seconds. |
| The immediate "Stop" command can now be used if "Shutdown" takes too long. |
| Also the immediate "Stop" command is able to interrupt samplers which support the new Interruptible interface (e.g. HTTP and SOAP, FTP). |
| This allows immediate completion of pending responses. |
| Non-GUI mode tests can also now be sent a "Shutdown" or "Stop" message. |
| <a href="./usermanual/component_reference.html#Test_Action">Test Action</a> now supports a "Stop Now" action, |
| as do the <a href="./usermanual/component_reference.html#Thread_Group">Thread Group</a> and <a href="./usermanual/component_reference.html#Result_Status_Action_Handler">Result Status Action Handler</a> Post Processor elements. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| HTTP Cookie handling is improved, and HTTP POST can now use variable file names correctly. |
| HTTP, SOAP/XML-RPC and WebService(SOAP) sampler character encodings updated to be more consistent. |
| HTTP Samplers now support connection and response timeouts (requires JVM 1.5 for the HTTP Java sampler). |
| Together with the closedown improvements described above, this should avoid most cases where a test run hangs. |
| Multiple Header Manager elements are now supported for a single HTTP sampler. |
| The Proxy Server is improved, and no longer stores "Host" headers by default. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| JDBC Request can optionally save the results of Select statements to variables. |
| JDBC Request now handles quoted strings and UTF-8, and can handle arbitrary variable types. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| There are several new <a href="usermanual/functions.html">functions</a>: |
| __char() function: allows arbitrary Unicode characters to be entered in fields. |
| __unescape() function: allows Java-escaped strings to be used. |
| _unescapeHtml() function: decodes Html-encoded text. |
| __escapeHtml() function: encodes text using Html-encoding. |
| A reference to a missing function - e.g. ${__missing(a)} - is now treated the same as a missing variable. |
| Previously the function name - and leading { - were dropped. This makes it easier to debug test plans. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Some Assertions can now be applied to sub-samples as well as (or instead of) just the parent sample. |
| There is a new <a href="./usermanual/component_reference.html#Random_Variable">Random Variable</a> Configuration element. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| JMS samplers are much improved (see details below). The <a href="./usermanual/component_reference.html#TCP_Sampler">TCP Sampler</a> now supports some additional clients and is a bit more flexible. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Client-server mode has been improved, and the server can optionally use a fixed RMI port, which should help with setting up firewalls. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Various I18N changes have been made; language change works better (though not perfect yet). |
| There are improved French translations as well as new Polish and Brazilian Portugese translations. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The BeanShell jar is now included with the binary archive; there is no need to download it separately. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| |
| <h2>Known bugs</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Include Controller has some problems in non-GUI mode. |
| In particular, it can cause a <span class="code">NullPointerException</span> if there are two include controllers with the same name. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The menu item <span class="menuchoice"><span class="guimenuitem">Options</span> → <span class="guimenuitem">Choose Language</span></span> |
| does not change all the displayed text to the new language. |
| [The behaviour has improved, but language change is still not fully working] |
| To override the default local language fully, set the JMeter property "<span class="code">language</span>" before starting JMeter. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2>Incompatible changes</h2> |
| <p> |
| When loading sample results from a file, previous results are no longer cleared. |
| This allows one to merge multiple files. |
| If the previous behaviour is required, |
| use the menu item <span class="menuchoice"><span class="guimenuitem">Run</span> → <span class="guimenuitem">Clear</span> |
| (<span class="keycombo"><span class="keysym">Ctrl</span> + <span class="keysym">Shift</span> + <span class="keysym">E</span></span>) |
| </span> or <span class="menuchoice"><span class="guimenuitem">Run</span> → <span class="guimenuitem">Clear All</span> |
| (<span class="keycombo"><span class="keysym">Ctrl</span> + <span class="keysym">E</span></span>) |
| </span> before loading the file. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The test elements "Save Results to a file" and "Generate Summary Results" are now shown as Listeners. |
| They were previously shown as Post-Processors, even though they are implemented as Listeners. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The Cookie Manager no longer saves incoming cookies as variables by default. |
| To save cookies as variables, define the property "<span class="code">CookieManager.save.cookies=true</span>". |
| Also, cookies names are prefixed with "<span class="code">COOKIE_</span>" before they are stored (this avoids accidental corruption of local variables) |
| To revert to the original behaviour, define the property "<span class="code">CookieManager.name.prefix= </span>" (one or more spaces). |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The Counter element is now shown as a Configuration element. |
| It was previously shown as a Pre-Processor, even though it is implemented as a Config item. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The above changes only affect the icons that are displayed and the locations in the GUI pop-up menus. |
| They do not affect test plans or test behaviour. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The PreProcessors are now invoked directly by the JMeterThread class, |
| rather than by the TestCompiler#configureSampler() method. (JMeterThread handles the PostProcessors). |
| This does not affect test plans or behaviour, but could perhaps affect 3rd party add-ons (very unlikely). |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Moved the Scoping Rules sub-section from Section 3. "Building a Test Plan" to Section 4. "Elements of a test plan" |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The While controller now trims leading and trailing spaces from the condition value before it is compared |
| with <span class="code">LAST</span>, blank or false. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The "threadName" variable in the _jexl() and __javaScript() functions was previously misspelt as "theadName". |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The following deprecated methods were removed from JOrphanUtils: booleanToString(boolean) and valueOf(boolean). |
| Java 1.4+ has these methods in the Boolean class. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The TestElement interface has some new methods: |
| <ul> |
| <li>void setProperty(String key, String value, String dflt)</li> |
| <li>void setProperty(String key, boolean value, boolean dflt)</li> |
| <li>void setProperty(String key, int value)</li> |
| <li>void setProperty(String key, int value, int dflt)</li> |
| <li>int getPropertyAsInt(String key, int defaultValue)</li> |
| </ul> |
| These are implemented in the AbstractTestElement class which all elements should extend so this is unlikely to cause a problem. |
| </p> |

| |
| <h2>Version 2.3.2</h2> |
| |
| <h3>Summary of main changes</h3> |
| |
| <h4>Bug fixes</h4> |
| <p> |
| Version 2.3.1 changed the way binary and text content types were determined as far as the View Results Tree Listener was concerned: |
| originally everything except "image/" content types were considered text, but 2.3.1 introduced a check |
| for specific content types. This has caused problems, |
| as several popular types were omitted and these were no longer shown by default in the Response tab. |
| Rather than try to list all the possible text types, JMeter now just checks for the following binary types: |
| <ul> |
| <li>image/*</li> |
| <li>audio/*</li> |
| <li>video/*</li> |
| </ul> |
| All other types are now assumed to be text. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| JMeter 2.3.1 introduced a bug in the Cookie Manager |
| - if "Clear Cookie each iteration" was selected, all threads would see the same cookies. |
| This bug has been corrected. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>Improvements</h4> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Proxy server can now record binary requests. |
| By default the content types |
| application/x-amf and application/x-java-serialized-object |
| will be treated as binary and saved in a file. |
| To change the content types, update the property <b>proxy.binary.types</b>. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The CSV Dataset configuration element has new file sharing options: per thread group, per thread, per identifier. |
| This allows for more flexible file processing, e.g. each thread can process the same data in the same order. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Switch Controller now works properly with functions and variables, |
| and the condition can now be a name instead of a number. |
| Simple Controller now works properly under a While Controller</p> |
| |
| <p>CSV fields in JTL files can now contain delimiters. |
| CSV and XML files can now contain additional variables (define the JMeter property <b>sample_variables</b>).</p> |
| |
| <p>Response Assertion can now match on substrings (i.e. not regular expression). |
| Regex extractor can operate on variables.</p> |
| |
| <p> |
| XPath processing is improved; Tidy errors are handled better. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Save Table Data buttons added to Summary and Aggregate reports to allow easy saving of the calculated data.</p> |
| |
| <p> |
| HTTP samplers can now save just the MD5 hash of responses, rather than the entire response. |
| As a special case, if the HTTP Sampler path starts with "http://" or "https://" then this is used as the full URL, |
| overriding the host and port fields. |
| The HTTP Samplers can now POST multiple files. |
| Webservice(SOAP) Sampler can now load local WSDL files using the "file:" protocol. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| A simple HTTP Cache Manager has been added. This needs further development. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| View Results Tree Listener now uses Tidy to display XML. |
| This should allow more content to be displayed succesfully. |
| It also avoids the need to download remote DTD files, which can slow the rendering considerably. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| MailReader sampler now supports POP3S and IMAPS protocols. Individual mails are now added as sub-samples. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Various improvements to the BSF Sampler: now supports Jexl, and Javascript bug works properly. |
| Added BSF PreProcessor, PostProcessor and Assertion test elements. |
| All now have access to "props" JMeter Properties object. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Number of classes loaded in non-GUI mode is much reduced.</p> |
| |
| <h3>Known bugs</h3> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Include Controller has some problems in non-GUI mode. |
| In particular, it can cause a NullPointerException if there are two include controllers with the same name. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Once Only controller behaves OK under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, |
| but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The menu item Options / Choose Language does not change all the displayed text to the new language. |
| To override the default local language, set the JMeter property "language" before starting JMeter. |
| </p> |
| <h3>Incompatible changes</h3> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| To reduce the number of classes loaded in non-GUI mode, |
| Functions will only be found if their classname contains the string |
| '.functions.' and does not contain the string '.gui.'. |
| All existing JMeter functions conform to this restriction. |
| To revert to earlier behaviour, comment or change the properties classfinder.functions.* in jmeter.properties. |
| </li> |
| <li>The reference value parameter for intSum() is now optional. |
| As a consequence, if a variable name is used, it must not be a valid integer.</li> |
| <li>The supplied TCPClient implementation no longer treats tcp.eolByte=0 as special. |
| To skip EOL checking, set tcp.eolByte=1000 (or some other value which is not a valid byte) |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Leading and trailing spaces are trimmed from variable names in function calls. |
| For example, ${__Random(1,63, LOTTERY )} will use the variable 'LOTTERY' rather than ' LOTTERY '. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Synchronization has been removed from the RunningSample class (it was not fully threadsafe anyway). |
| Developers of 3rd party add-ons that use the class may need to synchronize access. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |

| <h3>Version 2.3.1</h3> |
| <h4>Summary of changes</h4> |
| |
| <h5>JMeter Proxy</h5> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Proxy spoof function was broken in 2.3; it has been fixed. |
| Spoof now supports an optional parameter to limit spoofing to particular URLs. |
| This is useful for HTTPS pages that have insecure content - e.g. images/stylesheets may be accessed using HTTP. |
| Spoofed responses now drop the default port (443) from https links to make them work better. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Ignored proxy samples are now visible in Listeners - the label is enclosed in [ and ] as an indication. |
| Proxy documentation has been improved. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h5>GUI changes</h5> |
| |
| <p>The Add menus show element types in the order in which they are processed |
| - see <a href="usermanual/test_plan.html#executionorder">Test Plan Execution Order</a>. |
| It is no longer possible to add test elements to inappropriate parts of the tree |
| - e.g. samplers cannot be added directly under a test plan. |
| This also applies to Paste and drag and drop. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The File menu now supports a "Revert" option, which reloads the current file. |
| Also the last few file names used are remembered for easy reloading. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Options Menu now supports Collapse All and Expand All items to collapse and expand the test tree. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h5>Remote testing</h5> |
| |
| <p> |
| The JMeter server now starts the RMI server directly (by default). |
| This simplifies testing, and means that the RMI server will be stopped when the server stops. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Functions can now be used in Listener filenames (variables do not work). |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Command-line option -G can now be used to define properties for remote servers. |
| Option -X can be used to stop a remote server after a non-GUI run. |
| Server can be set to automatically exit after a single test (set property server.exitaftertest=true). |
| </p> |
| |
| <h5>Other enhancements</h5> |
| |
| <p> |
| JMeter startup no longer loads as many classes; this should reduce memory requirements. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Parameter and file support added to all BeanShell elements. |
| Javascript function now supports access to JMeter objects; |
| Jexl function always did have access, but the documentation has now been included. |
| New functions __eval() and __evalVar() for evaluating variables. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| CSV files with the correct header column names are now automatically recognised when loaded. |
| There is no need to configure the properties. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The hostname can now be saved in CSV and XML output files. |
| New "Successes only" option added when saving result files. |
| Errors / Successes only option is now supported when loading XML and CSV files. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| General documentation improvements. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h5>HTTP</h5> |
| |
| <p>PUT and DELETE should now work properly. |
| Cookie Manager no longer clears manually entered cookies. |
| </p> |
| <p>Now handles the META tag http-equiv charset</p> |
| |
| <h5>JDBC</h5> |
| |
| <p>JDBC Sampler now allows INOUT and OUT parameters for Called procedures. |
| JDBC Sampler now allows per-thread connections - set Max Connections = 0 in JDBC Config. |
| </p> |
| |
| <hr> |
| |
| |
| <h4>Incompatible changes</h4> |
| <ul> |
| <li>JMeter server now creates the RMI registry by default. |
| If the RMI registry has already been started externally, this will generate a warning message, but the server will continue. |
| This should not affect JMeter testing. |
| However, if you are also using the RMI registry for other applications there may be problems. |
| For example, when the JMeter server shuts down it will stop the RMI registry. |
| Also user-written command files may need to be adjusted (the ones supplied with JMeter have been updated). |
| To revert to the earlier behaviour, define the JMeter property: <b>server.rmi.create=false</b>. |
| </li> |
| <li>The Proxy server removes If-Modified-Since and If-None-Match headers from generated Header Managers. |
| To revert to the previous behaviour, define the property proxy.headers.remove with no value</li> |
| </ul> |
| |

| <h3>Version 2.3RC3</h3> |
| |
| <h4>Known problems/restrictions:</h4> |
| <p> |
| The JMeter remote server does not support multiple concurrent tests - each remote test should be run in a separate server. |
| Otherwise tests may fail with random Exceptions, e.g. ConcurrentModification Exception in StandardJMeterEngine. |
| See <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43168"> |
| Bug |
| 43168</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The default HTTP Request (not HTTPClient) sampler may not work for HTTPS connections via a proxy. |
| This appears to be due to a Java bug, see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39337"> |
| Bug |
| 39337</a>. |
| To avoid the problem, try a more recent version of Java, or switch to the HTTPClient version of the HTTP Request sampler. |
| </p> |
| <p>Transaction Controller parent mode does not support nested Transaction Controllers. |
| Doing so may cause a Null Pointer Exception in TestCompiler. |
| </p> |
| <p>Thread active counts are always zero in CSV and XML files when running remote tests. |
| </p> |
| <p>The property file_format.testlog=2.1 is treated the same as 2.2. |
| However JMeter does honour the 3 testplan versions.</p> |
| <p> |
| <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22510"> |
| Bug |
| 22510</a> - JMeter always uses the first entry in the keystore. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Remote mode does not work if JMeter is installed in a directory where the path name contains spaces. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| BeanShell test elements leak memory. |
| This can be reduced by using a file instead of including the script in the test element. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Variables and functions do not work in Listeners in client-server (remote) mode so they cannot be used |
| to name log files in client-server mode. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| CSV Dataset variables are defined after configuration processing is completed, |
| so they cannot be used for other configuration items such as JDBC Config. |
| (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40394"> |
| Bug |
| 40394</a>) |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>Summary of changes (for more details, see below)</h4> |
| <p> |
| Some of the main enhancements are: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Htmlparser 2.0 now used for parsing</li> |
| <li>HTTP Authorization now supports domain and realm</li> |
| <li>HttpClient options can be specified via httpclient.parameters file</li> |
| <li>HttpClient now behaves the same as Java Http for SSL certificates</li> |
| <li>HTTP Mirror Server to allow local testing of HTTP samplers</li> |
| <li>HTTP Proxy supports XML-RPC recording, and other proxy improvements</li> |
| <li>__V() function allows support of nested variable references</li> |
| <li>LDAP Ext sampler optionally parses result sets and supports secure mode</li> |
| <li>FTP Sampler supports Ascii/Binary mode and upload</li> |
| <li>Transaction Controller now optionally generates a Sample with subresults</li> |
| <li>HTTPS session contexts are now per-thread, rather than shared. This gives better emulation of multiple users</li> |
| <li>BeanShell elements now support ThreadListener and TestListener interfaces</li> |
| <li>Coloured icons in Tree View Listener and elsewhere to better differentiate failed samples.</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p> |
| The main bug fixes are: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>HTTPS (SSL) handling now much improved</li> |
| <li>Various Remote mode bugs fixed</li> |
| <li><span class="keycombo"><span class="keysym">Control</span> + <span class="keysym">C</span></span> |
| and <span class="keycombo"><span class="keysym">Control</span> + <span class="keysym">V</span></span> now work in the test tree</li> |
| <li>Latency and Encoding now available in CSV log output</li> |
| <li>Test elements no longer default to previous contents; test elements no longer cleared when changing language.</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h4>Incompatible changes (usage):</h4> |
| <p> |
| <b>N.B. The javax.net.ssl properties have been moved from jmeter.properties to system.properties, |
| and will no longer work if defined in jmeter.properties.</b> |
| <br> |
| The new arrangement is more flexible, as it allows arbitrary system properties to be defined. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| SSL session contexts are now created per-thread, rather than being shared. |
| This generates a more realistic load for HTTPS tests. |
| The change is likely to slow down tests with many SSL threads. |
| The original behaviour can be enabled by setting the JMeter property: |
| <pre> |
| https.sessioncontext.shared=true |
| </pre> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The LDAP Extended Sampler now uses the same panel for both Thread Bind and Single-Bind tests. |
| This means that any tests using the Single-bind test will need to be updated to set the username and password. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41140"> |
| Bug |
| 41140</a>: JMeterThread behaviour was changed so that PostProcessors are run in forward order |
| (as they appear in the test plan) rather than reverse order as previously. |
| The original behaviour can be restored by setting the following JMeter property: |
| <br> |
| jmeterthread.reversePostProcessors=true |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The HTTP Authorization Manager now has extra columns for domain and realm, |
| so the temporary work-round of using '\' and '@' in the username to delimit the domain and realm |
| has been removed. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="keycombo"><span class="keysym">Control</span> + <span class="keysym">Z</span></span> no longer used for Remote Start All - this |
| now uses <span class="keycombo"><span class="keysym">Control</span> + <span class="keysym">Shift</span> + <span class="keysym">R</span></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| HttpClient now uses pre-emptive authentication. |
| This can be changed by setting the following: |
| <pre> |
| jmeter.properties: |
| httpclient.parameters.file=httpclient.parameters |
| |
| httpclient.parameters: |
| http.authentication.preemptive$Boolean=false |
| </pre> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The port field in HTTP Request Defaults is no longer ignored for https samplers if it is set to 80. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>Incompatible changes (development):</h4> |
| <p> |
| <b>N.B.</b>The clear() method was defined in the following interfaces: Clearable, JMeterGUIComponent and TestElement. |
| The methods serve different purposes, so two of them were renamed: |
| the Clearable method is now clearData() and the JMeterGUIComponent method is now clearGui(). |
| 3rd party add-ons may need to be rebuilt. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Calulator and SamplingStatCalculator classes no longer provide any formatting of their data. |
| Formatting should now be done using the jorphan.gui Renderer classes. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Removed deprecated method JMeterUtils.split() - use JOrphanUtils version instead. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Removed method saveUsingJPEGEncoder() from SaveGraphicsService. |
| It was unused so far, and used the only Sun-specific class in JMeter. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| <h4>New functionality/improvements:</h4> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Add Domain and Realm support to HTTP Authorization Manager</li> |
| <li>HttpClient now behaves the same as the JDK http sampler for invalid certificates etc</li> |

| <h3>Version 2.2</h3> |
| |
| <h4>Incompatible changes:</h4> |
| <p> |
| The time stamp is now set to the sampler start time (it was the end). |
| To revert to the previous behaviour, change the property <b>sampleresult.timestamp.start</b> to false (or comment it) |
| </p> |
| <p>The JMX output format has been simplified and files are not backwards compatible</p> |
| <p> |
| The JMeter.BAT file no longer changes directory to JMeter home, but runs from the current working directory. |
| The jmeter-n.bat and jmeter-t.bat files change to the directory containing the input file. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Listeners are now started slightly later in order to allow variable names to be used. |
| This may cause some problems; if so define the following in jmeter.properties: |
| <br> |
| jmeterengine.startlistenerslater=false |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The GUI now expands the tree by default when loading a test plan. |
| This can be disabled by setting the JMeter property <b>onload.expandtree=false</b> |
| </p> |
| |
| <h4>Known problems:</h4> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Post-processors run in reverse order (see <a href="http://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41140"> |

| <li>Does not always handle non-default encoding properly</li> |
| <li>Spaces in the installation path cause problems for client-server mode</li> |
| <li>Change of Language does not propagate to all test elements</li> |
| <li>SamplingStatCalculator keeps a List of all samples for calculation purposes; |
| this can cause memory exhaustion in long-running tests</li> |
| <li>Does not properly handle server certificates if they are expired or not installed locally</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h4>New functionality:</h4> |
| <ul> |

| <h3>Version 1.5</h3> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Abstracted out the concept of the Sampler, SamplerController, and TestSample. |
| A Sampler represents code that understands a protocol (such as HTTP, |
| or FTP, RMI, SMTP, etc..). It is the code that actually makes the |
| connection to whatever is being tested. A SamplerController |
| represents code that understands how to organize and run a group |
| of test samples. It is what binds together a Sampler and its test |
| samples and runs them. A TestSample represents code that understands |
| how to gather information from the user about a particular test. |
| For a website, it would represent a URL and any information to be sent |
| with the URL.</li> |
| <li>The UI has been updated to make entering test samples more convenient.</li> |
| <li>Thread groups have been added, allowing a user to setup multiple test to run |
| concurrently, and to allow sharing of test samples between those tests.</li> |
| <li>It is now possible to save and load test samples.</li> |
| <li>… and many more minor changes/improvements …</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <b>Apache JMeter 1.4.1-dev</b> |
