Mastering JMeter 5.0, published by Packt
This is the code repository for Mastering JMeter 5.0 [Video], published by Packt. It contains all the supporting project files necessary to work through the video course from start to finish.
JMeter has become an industry-standard tool for conducting functional, load, performance, and regression tests on web applications. It scales web development by helping you measure and analyze application performance.
In this course, you’ll learn to invoke key features of the latest version of this testing tool to achieve peak performance for your web applications, all the while improving the testing team’s productivity by developing realistic and scalable test plans and automation.
You'll start by mastering assertion types and scripts. Then you'll immerse yourself in the world of logic controllers and apply them to scripting. You'll get to grips with samplers, which help you send a request to the web server. You'll learn advanced scripting, work with test controllers, design test plans, and much more.
By the end of this course, you will be able to use JMeter 5.0 for performance and load testing.
