JMeter Script with Proxy Support
Posted on October 3rd, 2005 1 commentJMeter comes with several launch scripts:
- jmeter.bat - GUI execution with proxy support:
-H [proxy server hostname or ip address]
-P [proxy server port]
-u [username for proxy authentication - if required]
-a [password for proxy authentication - if required] - jmeter-n.bat - background mode with no proxy support
- jmeterw.bat - GUI mode using javaw with proxy support
For some reason proxy is NOT supported in the unattended script, jmeter-n.bat . An easy way to add proxy support to jmeter-n.bat is to change the launch statement in the following way:
rem See the unix startup file for the rationale of the following parameters,
rem including some tuning recommendations
set HEAP=-Xms256m -Xmx256m
set NEW=-XX:NewSize=128m -XX:MaxNewSize=128m
set SURVIVOR=-XX:SurvivorRatio=8 -XX:TargetSurvivorRatio=50%
set TENURING=-XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=2
set EVACUATION=-XX:MaxLiveObjectEvacuationRatio=20%
set RMIGC=-Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=600000
set PERM=-XX:PermSize=64m -XX:MaxPermSize=64m
set DEBUG=-verbose:gc -XX:+PrintTenuringDistribution
set PROXY=-H my.proxy.server -P my.proxy.port
set ARGS=%HEAP% %NEW% %SURVIVOR% %TENURING% %EVACUATION% %RMIGC% %PERM% %DEBUG%
java %JVM_ARGS% %ARGS% -jar ApacheJMeter.jar %PROXY% %JMETER_CMD_LINE_ARGS%Notice that various launch options such as memory, garbage collection and debug mode can also be changed from this file.
