Web压力测试工具，JMeter 2.12 发布

jopen 10年前

当前JMeter 2.12已经兼容Java 8.
　JMeter 是一个流行的用于负载测试的开源工具， 具有许多有用的功能元件，如线程组（thread group）， 定时器（timer）， 和HTTP 取样 (sampler) 元件。用于对软件做压力测试，它最初被设计用于Web应用测试但后来扩展到其他测试领域。 它可以用于测试静态和动态资源例如静态文件、Java 小服务程序、CGI 脚本、Java 对象、数据库， FTP 服务器， 等等。JMeter 可以用于对服务器、网络或对象模拟巨大的负载，来自不同压力类别下测试它们的强度和分析整体性能。另外，JMeter能够对应用程序做功能/回归测试，通过创建带有断言的脚本来验证你的程序返回了你期望的结果。为了最大限度的灵活性，JMeter允许使用正则表达式创建断言。 Apache jmeter 可以用于对静态的和动态的资源（文件，Servlet，Perl脚本，java 对象，数据库和查询，FTP服务器等等）的性能进行测试。它可以用于对服务器，网络 或对象模拟繁重的负载来测试它们的强度或分析不同压力类型下的整体性能。你可以使用它做性能的图形分析或在大并发负载测试你的服务器/脚本/对象。 

New Elements


Critical Section Controller

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.

DNS Cache Manager

The new configuration element DNS Cache Manager (see Bug 56841 ) improves the testing of:

  • CDN (Content Delivery Network)
  • DNS load balancing.
  • Load Balancers like Amazon Elastic Load Balancer


Core Improvements


Smarter Recording of Http Test Plans

Test Script Recorder has been improved in many ways

  • Better matching of Variables in Requests, making Test Script Recorder variabilize your sampler during recording more versatile
  • 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

  • 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

Support of Webdav requests

You can now test against WebDav server using HttpClient4 Implementation of Http Request

Better handling of embedded resources

When download embedded resources is checked, JMeter now uses User Agent header to download or not resources embedded within conditionnal comments as per About conditional comments .


Ability to customize Cache Manager (Browser cache simulation) handling of cached resources

You can now configure the behaviour of JMeter when a resource is found in Cache, this can be controlled with cache_manager.cached_resource_mode property

JMS Publisher / JMS Point-to-Point

Add JMSPriority and JMSExpiration fields for these samplers.


Mail Reader Sampler

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.

SMTP Sampler

Adding the Connection timeout and the Read timeout to the SMTP Sampler.



Synchronizing Timer

Adding a timeout to define the maximum time to waiting of the group of virtual users.

Performance improvements

A big improvement in performances of Functions has been made by lifting useless synchronization. It concerns all functions except __StringFromFile, __XPath and __BeanShell, see Bug 57114

__jexl2 performances have been improved to avoid contention point, see Bug 56708



GUI Improvements


Undo/Redo support

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 undo.history.size=25



View Results Tree

Improve the ergonomics of View Results Tree by changing placement of Renderers and allowing custom ordering (with the property view.results.tree.renderers_order ).

Response Time Graph

Adding the ability for the Response Time Graph listener to save/restore format its settings in/from the jmx file.

Log Viewer

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.

File Opening

Now, "Open File dialog" uses last opened file folder as start folder, see Bug 52707



Known bugs

  • The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller, but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).
  • 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 Bug 55510 ).
  • 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:
     [java] WARNING: Couldn't flush user prefs:   java.util.prefs.BackingStoreException:   java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Not supported: indent-number
    This does not affect JMeter operation. This issue is fixed since Java 7b05.
  • Note that under some windows systems you may have this WARNING:
    java.util.prefs.WindowsPreferences   WARNING: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs at root 0  x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(...) returned error code 5.
    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.
  • 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 Bug 54477 ). A workaround is to use a Java 7 runtime (OpenJDK or Oracle JDK).
  • With Oracle Java 7 and Mac Book Pro Retina Display, the JMeter GUI may look blurry. This is a known Java bug, see Bug JDK-8000629 . A workaround is to use a Java 7 update 40 runtime which fixes this issue.
  • You may encounter the following error: java.security.cert.CertificateException: Certificates does not conform to algorithm constraints 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.
    To allow you to perform your HTTPS request, you can downgrade the security of your Java installation by editing the Java jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms property. Remove the MD2 value or the constraint on size, depending on your case.
    This property is in this file:
    JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/java.security
    See Bug 56357 for details.


Incompatible changes

  • Since JMeter 2.12, active threads in all thread groups and active threads in current thread group are saved by default to CSV or XML results, see Bug 57025 . This is usually the expected behaviour as you want to have the number of running threads during the test. But if you want to revert to previous behaviour, set property jmeter.save.saveservice.thread_counts=false
  • Since JMeter 2.12, Mail Reader Sampler will show 1 for number of samples instead of number of messages retrieved, see Bug 56539
  • Since JMeter 2.12, when using Cache Manager, if resource is found in cache no SampleResult will be created, in previous version a SampleResult with empty content and 204 return code was returned, see Bug 54778 . You can choose between different ways to handle this case, see cache_manager.cached_resource_mode in jmeter.properties.
  • Since JMeter 2.12, Log Viewer will no more clear logs when closed and will have logs available even if closed. See Bug 56920 . Read Hints and Tips > Enabling Debug logging for details on configuring this component.
