JMeter script creation using JMeter API & Java code through IntelliJ IDE - jmeter

How to create a JMeter script using JMeter API's and Java Code through IntelliJ IDE ??

First of all, be aware that this way of creating a JMeter script is not officially supported so you won't be able to get any help so may be it worth reconsidering your approach before moving forward.
If you still want to do this:
Open IntelliJ IDE
Add the JMeter API .jars (they live in "lib/ext" folder of your JMeter installation as dependencies
Create a JMeter script according to your test scenario
More information: JMeter Command Line Overview: 5 Ways To Launch a Test
Example project you can use as a basis: jmeter-from-code
There is also JMeter Java DSL, it doesn't support all JMeter features but it provides handy way of creating and running a basic test plan via simple API

JMeter - NonGUIDriver java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

I have a test in which I need to use Thread scheduling. For now I am using Ultimate Thread Group. But, then its throwing "NonGUI error" when I run the test -Is there a way where i can solve this issue? If not, can someone help me out how to do Thread schedule in non-GUI mode.
Note: My JMeter setup is in Kubernates server inside influxdb.
Make sure to install Custom Thread Groups plugins bundle before running your test. The recommended way of installing JMeter plugins and keeping them up-to-date is using JMeter Plugins Manager
Also be make sure to upgrade to the latest JMeter version which is JMeter 5.0 as of now (check out JMeter Downloads page for the latest stable release)
If after the plugins installation you will still be experiencing problems - consider updating your question to include the generated XML otherwise no one will be able to help

TheIntern set up and configuration

I'm trying to get theIntern up and running on a project, I've managed to get Webdriver.io running but need to demo theIntern for web automation. But I can't seem to get the set up right.
I'm using Node and NPM
The Intern dependency is outlined in my package.JSON file
I've ran an Npm install - and all is ok there.
I have a test file
And selenium standalone is running but I can't seem to get it to work, any suggestions or steps I'm missing would be great thanks for your help.
Intern includes support for everything you need to do WebDriver tests, including a Selenium manager and its own WebDriver library. (Note that you will need Java installed to run Selenium, but it sounds like you've already taken care of that.)
To run WebDriver tests, you'll want to write functional tests. A functional test will call methods on "remote" (this.remote), which is an object implementing a WebDriver API, and return the result.
To actually run the functional tests, use node_modules/.bin/intern-runner, or intern run -w if you've installed intern-cli. In your Intern config, set the tunnel property to 'SeleniumTunnel' to let Intern download and manage Selenium, or to 'NullTunnel' to use your own running instance of Selenium.

JMeter software under test

I am doing a seminar on JMeter and I need to demo on some software. My professor say we need an open source software. So that we can set it up on local host and testing against it
The problem is I don't know which open source software should be used. I am new to JMeter and saw some examples with testing a website only
So can anyone tell me some open source software that can be put under test with JMeter?
Thanks in advance.
Yes, start with this GitHub project and then, since the project includes Groovy, and requires Maven to run, then you have 2 additional open source projects involved. All you have to do is run JMeter using the included .bat script and then create a TestPlan with a JSR223-Groovy sampler in it. (The project I mention above will launch a certain version of Jmeter 2.11)
You could also go one step further and install PostgresSQL (also open source) and then create a JDBC sampler that connects to it using Jmeter (because the Jmeter project I mentioned above also includes the postgres jdbc driver by default).
If you need a REST api to test against, then install Jenkins on your local computer and you can get Jmeter to perform rest queries against it.

Automated way to run jmeter tests

I have a bunch of jmeters that I would like to run in an automated way.
Are there any available solutions for this?
Also is it possible to invoke jmeter tests in a particular location from java ? I would happily write a web app for running them from there.
JMeter can be invoked in multiple ways:
Command-line mode (like from shell script)
Apache Ant Task
Apache Maven Plugin
Jenkins Performance Plugin
Execution from Java code via JMeter API
See 5 Ways To Launch a JMeter Test without Using the JMeter GUI for extended information on above and more. It also contains some code snippets on existing .jmx scripts execution and even creating new test using only API.

Programming with JMeter API's

I have worked with Jmeter for Perfromance testing. And had some hands on Experience with GUI.
Now Problem is Each and every time if i need to start performance testing , i need to load JMeter GUI and load my test plans [JMX] created and so..on..
So Now i am Planning to enhance my test Plans to next level as to make use of JMeter API's and write my own test plans and execute them..Which has to be Automated..
Can someone please suggest how to setup my IDE Environment [ANT , MAVEN , JAR's Required] for JMeter programming ?
And is there any sample test program on web application trough Jmeter Java programming ?
please suggest if there are any links for sample programming jmeter test plans.
I think its better to use eclipse IDE with ant for Jmeter development. You can either build jmeter source code by ant command line or using Eclipse with ant. Refer the links provided which will help you to understand more about setup jmeter development environment. 1) Jmeter-custom-build or 2) how-to-build-jmeter-from-sources-in-eclipse
Last 2 chapters of the 5 Ways To Launch a JMeter Test without Using the JMeter GUI guide demonstrate how to use JMeter's API to run existing test and to create a new test from scratch from Java code.
There is a sample project on Bitbucket which you should be able to use as a skeleton or reference.
