Jmeter test status on non-gui mode - jmeter

How can i get jmeter test status in non-gui mode.
Jenkins install jmeter helm chart on kuberntes and start the test as part of the installation, meaning that after the chart installed a script entry point will run automatically inside the container, jenkins is only trigger the chart. i want to know when the test is finished and get back the status to jenkins from the pod to publish the report test result on jenkins.

When JMeter's non-gui test execution is finished it returns a normal exit code which can be obtained:
%errorlevel% environment variable in Windows
$? environment variable in Unix and derivatives
Not knowing the details of how you launch JMeter it is quite hard to come up with exact Jenkins configuration but I'm pretty much sure that you can utilize the aforementioned variables to get the JMeter execution status

if you are triggering jmeter scripts via jenkins , you can have a post build operation after script execution using jenkins.
I am using powershell in jenkins to run jmeter in non gui mode, once test is done doing other post build operations.

Execute a file using OS sampler in JMeter on a RHEL 8 Machine

Have a .net core library Linux compatible on a Linux machine. I can execute it locally from terminal and getting the expected result. But while executing from JMeter using a OS sampler it is failing.
From Terminal: Running Fine
JMeter Settings:
Fetching the Response Body: (which should be 352 for example from the above terminal)
JMeter it is failing:
Check the file location and permission, everything is in place. What I have missed here any help ?
After change:
I changed as suggested and still facing the issue,
Error details,
I think you need to invoke a shell instead of trying to execute your command directly, something like:
Also if you open the OS Process Sampler in the View Results Tree listener you will see the output or in case of failure the failure reason

I guess you misinterpret both Dimtri and User729 comment, you need to add both places and it should work.

JMeter plugin not working with jmeter-server

I have a test suite that uses the Webdriver Sampler plugin (https://jmeter-plugins.org/wiki/WebDriverSampler/) configured with Chromedriver. If I run my tests in "regular" non-gui mode the plugin works, i.e. starts the chromedriver and performs the test script.
When I try to run the test in distributed mode, the chromedriver doesn't seem to start, and no errors are found in logs.
I've tried to run the tests from my master node targeting the slave node, as well as running them from the slave node itself (targeting the running jmeter-server that is running on the slave).
Running tests without the above plugin works (e.g. running a HTTP-request based test suite from master targeting the slave)
Do I have to configure the plugin for jmeter-server too somehow?
You need to:
Install WebDriver Sampler plugin to all slave machines (jmeter-servers) using JMeter Plugins Manager
Install chromedriver binary to all slave machines at the same place
Make sure that Chrome browser is installed at all slaves and it's in operating system PATH
When you run JMeter test in distributed mode the master machine transfers only .jmx test script to slaves and collects results from them, any other extra files like:
plugins
CSV files used for parameterization
properties files
etc.
should be copied over from the master machine manually or using a script
It turns out that the plugin actually worked, but in order for chromedriver to run properly a display variable has to be set on each slave node.
Install xvfb
run commands:
Xvfb :1 -screen 5 1024x768x8 &
export DISPLAY=:1.5
As described in: Running Chrome WebDriver on a linux server with no display

JMETER_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly but build is successful and the script works fine in Jmeter GUI and cmd prompt

I have created a jmeter jmx script and it is getting executed perfectly in GUI and non GUI mode. I have configured the same in Jenkins but I am getting the build success with an error message as "The JMETER_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly
This environment variable is needed to run this program"
I have also tried setting the JMETER_HOME as E:\apache-jmeter-4.0 in User variables and Path as E:\apache-jmeter-4.0\bin in System Variables and it didn't work.
I tried the below Questions but no luck.
'jmeter' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
JMETER_HOME environment variable is not defined
Here is my command and error from jenkins
E:\apache-jmeter-4.0\bin\jmeter -jjmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=xml -n -t E:\JMeter Tutorial\JenkinsIntegration.jmx -l E:\JMeter Tutorial\JenkinsIntegrationResult.jtl
The easiest way of setting an environment variable is defining it under Manage Jenkins - Configure System - Global properties:
The better way would be using Environment Injector plugin
And last but not the least, you're getting this message because you're sitting at outdated JMeter 4.0, if you upgrade to i.e. JMeter 5.2.1 you won't be seeing this warning, moreover according to 9 Easy Solutions for a JMeter Load Test “Out of Memory” Failure article you should always be using the latest version of JMeter so in any case upgrade does make sense, check out what is the latest stable JMeter version and switch to it
I removed Jenkins and reinstalled as well as i deleted the old job and created a new job with default settings in jenkins (i dint do anything in the manage Jenkins) and it worked charm with both jmerer 4.0 and 5.3. java 1.8.0_251
with 5.3
with 4.0
as far i remember i just removed the space and added underscore in the below command from folder name JMeter Tutorial to Jmeter_Tutorial
E:\apache-jmeter-4.0\bin>E:\apache-jmeter-4.0\bin\jmeter.bat -Jjmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=xml -n -t E:\JMeter_Tutorial\JenkinsIntegration.jmx -l E:\JMeter_Tutorial\JenkinsIntegrationResult.csv

Not able to run jmeter script in non gui mode. It is recorded using blazemeter and running on jmeter 5 version

When Running the JMX script from terminal on MAC IN NON-GUI Mode, it returns an error saying "Could not open"
Below are the things i have tried :
1) jmeter -n -t "ABSOLUTE PATH.jmx" -l ABSOLUTE-PATH for results.jtl
2) Set the jmeter path and tried again.
I get the same error every time.
I don't think you can run the recording using JMeter as BlazeMeter Chrome Extension exports recorded scripts in YAML format suitable for Taurus tool
So you can run it using Taurus tool as
bzt test-Combined-JMeter-and-Selenium.yaml
If you want to convert it to "vanilla" JMeter - execute the following command:
bzt test-Combined-JMeter-and-Selenium.yaml -gui
JMeter GUI will open where you will be able to modify and save generated JMeter script as .jmx file which can be executed using JMeter.

How to stop the jmeter server from command line

We are implementing CI for performance testing, As a part of this we have to run scripts from 3 different machines, I am facing an issue while stoping the Jmeter server in slave machines after the execution.
I am executing the shutdown.bat, stoptest.bat but no luck.
Please help me, How to stop the Jmeter server from the command prompt which is currently running.
Thanks in Advance.
Configure your jmeter.properties file like this server.exitaftertest=true. It will stop the JMeter-server after the test execution.
