It can be used only on web applications, consumption of memory is high in GUI Mode and performance testing like Load, Stress and Endurance with high user load are preferred to run in NON-GUI mode.

Apache Jmeter scripts are great for load testing. I like the parameterization strategy offered by JMeter because I can reproduce better the scenarios of real-life by introducing the variables and randomizing in my tests. Also, JMeter extensions are accessible in the open-source sector to extend current JMeter capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While installation is very simple, some problems may occur if it is not installed by someone with experience. These problems will force the client to set up a lot of things to access a condensed HTML document or will require him to uninstall the respective JMeter module.

Functional ,unit as well as performance testing is done very smoothely. Multiple options for testing and configuration of sample requests for load generation.Blaze meter is helpful to scale up high load withought enagaging own system.Script customization is quite staright forward.Elements such as listeners helps to visualize results and their comparison as well.Functional testing as it has set of assertions and extractors.

System resources are not that used.Bit difficult to write assertions or advanced script in jmeter.Transaction scenarios lack quality naming convention .Finding plugins are quite difficult some time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Large load handling is troublesome.Scripting for own assertions or advanced script emulating non preffered action is complex.Thread hold is limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Apache Jmeter is very useful for parameterizing tests and loading info, which means it has a great performance testing. JMeter will allow you to evaluate if you need to extend outside the existing hardware infrastructure. It can maximize the access to the CSV data by reading it correctly, as the I / O efficiency is overhead. It also offers a very simple user experience, many plug-in modules and a range of graphical maps and descriptive notes to the audience. You could even use the chrome BlazeMeter addon to capture, retrieve, and create JMSX files in HTML Cookie Manager for an app-based check. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

JMeter's set up is complicated. I had to disable it from the device manager and then install it from the edge, to cause a check at the app level. I wish this could be done automatically just like any other similar tool on the market. Also, I want to see a true JMeter application, not a JAR file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
