JMETER 4. 0 | JMeter distributed load testing | jp@gc - Stepping Thread Group

Question

I have set up a login->logout script using JMeter and performing load testing using a distributed machine. The username is dynamically populated in login using the user.CSV list while the password for the login is fixed and hardcoded in the login request.

• Master(My own machine)
• 2 slaves machines
• Thread: jp@gc - Stepping Thread Group
• Users: 10
• Hold Load: 120

When executing the script using NON-GUI mode with a command:

jmeter -n -t "c:\Login and Logout.jmx" -R slaveip1, slaveip2.

The summary report is generated is as below:

Summariser: summary = 0 in 00:00:00 = ******/s Avg: 0 Min: 9223372036854775807 Max: -9223372036854775808 Err: 0 (0.00%)

Can someone help me out to find out why the summary report is not getting populated?

Note: When the script is executed for a single user then the summary report is getting populated. Here in the login request both username and password are hardcoded and username not coming for CSV.

Answer 1

1. Make sure to copy the CSV file to the slave machines
2. Make sure to install Stepping Thread Group plugin to all the slave machines (this applies to any other plugins used in your test as well)
3. If anything goes wrong make sure to check jmeter.log on master and jmeter-server.log file on slaves - in case of error JMeter should report the cause via the log file.
4. According to JMeter Best Practices you should always be using the latest version of JMeter so consider upgrading to JMeter 5.0 (or whatever version is available at JMeter Downloads page) on next available opportunity.
