From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
JMeter is an Apache Jakarta project that can be used as a load testing tool for analyzing and measuring the performance of a variety of services, with a focus on web applications.
JMeter can be used as a unit test tool for JDBC database connections, FTP, LDAP, Webservices, JMS, HTTP and generic TCP connections. JMeter can also be configured as a monitor, although this is typically considered an ad-hoc solution in lieu of advanced monitoring solutions.
While JMeter is classified as a "load generation" tool, this is not a complete description of the tool. JMeter supports assertions to ensure the data received is correct, per thread cookies, configuration variables and a variety of reports.
