JMeter with sikulixapi

Question

I want to use sikulixapi with JMeter.

This is my code in the JMeter Beanshell sampler.

import org.sikuli.script.Pattern;
import org.sikuli.script.Screen;
import org.sikuli.script.FindFailed;
import org.sikuli.script.KeyModifier;
import org.sikuli.script.Match;
import java.io.IOException;
Screen screen = new Screen();
Pattern VNCviewer = new Pattern ("C:\\patterns\\openvncviewer\\eclipse.png");
screen.click(VNCviewer);

Im getting the below error while executing the JMeter script.

Response code:500
Response message:org.apache.jorphan.util.JMeterException:
Error invoking bsh method: eval Sourced file: inline evaluation of: 
`` import org.sikuli.script.Pattern; import 
org.sikuli.script.Screen; import org.s . . . '' 
Typed variable declaration : Object constructor

Im using sikulixapi-2.0.5.jar and this jar has copied to the lib/ext folder.

Please let me know what is wrong here.

Answer 1

1. You need to put the jar to "lib" folder, "lib/ext" is for JMeter Components and Plugins

2. sikulixapi-2.0.5.jar alone is not enough, you need to add its dependencies. Full list would be something like:

3. Since JMeter 3.1 it's recommended to use JSR223 Test Elements and Groovy language for scripting mainly because Groovy performance is much better, moreover Groovy has better Java compatibility and offers a lot of enhancements on top of normal Java SDK. See Apache Groovy - Why and How You Should Use It article for more information.
