Apache JMeter Run

Apache JMeter Run

To run Jmeter go to Apache-JMeter-4.0\bin directory and click on jmeter.bat for Windows OS and Linux and Mac click on Jmeter.sh
After a slight pause Jmeter GUI should appear as seen in the following screenshot:

Now we see an option called Test Plan. Test Plan describes a set of steps that Jmeter will do when run.
A complete Test Plan consists of more than one Thread Groups, Listeners, Assertions, samplers, generating controllers, timers and configuration elements.
Now first, we need to add a Thread Group to the Test Plan.
Thread Group: A Thread Group is the starting point of any Jmeter Test Plan. All elements in Test Plan must be defined under Thread Group. In simple words, Jmeter stores the configuration required for Jmeter script execution.
