Run JMeter by Ant

1. download Jmeter ( the version of mine is Jmeter 2.4.)

2. I use Ant in Eclipse( version of eclipse is 3.5.2, which has ant)

3. Create the buid xml of your project.

 

Please note, your project should include ant-jmeter.jar(this file is under the Jmeter_home/extras directory)

 

example of my project build xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!-- WARNING: Eclipse auto-generated file.
              Any modifications will be overwritten.
              To include a user specific buildfile here, simply create one in the same
              directory with the processing instruction <?eclipse.ant.import?>
              as the first entry and export the buildfile again. -->
<project name="antjmeter" default="run" basedir="." >
<property name="testplan_path" value="D:/JMeter" />
<property name="resultlog_path" value="D:/resultlog" />
<property name="test_fail_flag" value="flase" />
<property name="true" value="true" />

<property name="jmeter_home" value="D:/jakarta-jmeter-2.4/" />
  
     <path id="TestingFrameWork.classpath">
          <pathelement location="bin"/>
        <pathelement location="lib/ant-jmeter.jar"/>
   </path>
<target name="test">
<taskdef name="jmeter" classname="org.programmerplanet.ant.taskdefs.jmeter.JMeterTask" />
  <jmeter jmeterhome="${jmeter_home}" testplan="${testplan_path}/Query.jmx"
      resultlogdir="${resultlog_path}" failureProperty="test_fail_flag" >  
  <!-- <testplans dir="${testplan_path}" />-->
    <jvmarg value="-Dgroup1.threads=10"/>

  </jmeter>
<echo message="jmeter test finished"/>

<echo message="test_fail_flag=${test_fail_flag}"/>

<condition property="test_fail_flag_ture">
                     <equals arg1="${test_fail_flag}" arg2="true" />
        </condition>

<antcall target="ShowBuildFail" />
</target>

<target name="ShowBuildFail" if="test_fail_flag_ture">
              <fail message="test result fail" />
</target>


<target name="interval">
<echo message="sleep 1 seconds"/>
<sleep seconds="1"/>
<echo message="continue"/>
</target>
<xslt
    in="${resultlog_path}/Query.jtl"
    out="${resultlog_path}/index.html"
    style="${resultlog_path}/jmeter-results-report.xsl"/>

<target name="run" depends="test,interval"/>

</project>

 

4.  <xslt
    in="${resultlog_path}/Query.jtl"
    out="${resultlog_path}/index.html"
    style="${resultlog_path}/jmeter-results-report.xsl"/> This code convert your testplan result file(which ends with jtl) to html file. jmeter-results-report.xsl is necessary to do convert from jtl file to html file. jmeter-results-report.xsl is under Jmeter_home/extras directory.

 

5. Ok, till now, you can use Ant to run the test plan of Jmeter.
