 <body>
 <section name="&sect-num;. Building an LDAP Test Plan" anchor="building">
         <p>In this section, you will learn how to create a basic Test Plan to test an LDAP server.
 You will create four users that send requests for four tests on the LDAP server. Also, you will tell
 the users to run their tests 4 times. So,  the total number of requests is (4 users) x (4 requests) x
 repeat 4 times) = 40 LDAP requests. To construct the Test Plan, you will use the following elements:
 <a href="test_plan.html#thread_group">Thread Group</a>,
 <complink name="LDAP Request"/>,
 <complink name="LDAP Request Defaults"/>, and
 <complink name="View Results in Table"/>
 .</p>
         <p>This example assumes that the LDAP Server is available at ldap.test.com.</p>
 </section>
     <section name="&sect-num;.1 Adding Users" anchor="adding_users">
         <p>The first step you want to do with every JMeter Test Plan is to add a Thread Group element.
 The Thread Group tells JMeter the number of users you want to simulate, how often the users should send
 requests, and the how many requests  they should send.</p>
                 <p>Go ahead and add the ThreadGroup element by first selecting the Test Plan, clicking your
 right mouse button to get the <menuchoice><guimenuitem>Add</guimenuitem></menuchoice> menu, and then select
 <menuchoice>
   <guimenuitem>Add</guimenuitem>
   <guimenuitem>ThreadGroup</guimenuitem>
 </menuchoice>. You should now see the
 Thread Group element under Test Plan. If you do not see the element, then "expand" the Test Plan tree by
 clicking on the Test Plan element.

     <guimenuitem>Login Config Element</guimenuitem>

 Then,  select this new element to view its Control Panel.</p>
         <p>Like most JMeter elements, the <code>Login  Config Element</code>'s Control Panel has a name
 field that you can modify. In this example, leave this field with the default value.</p>

                 <p>In our Test Plan, we need to make four LDAP requests.</p>
