Execution of threads with different certificate reference present in jks keystore.
When i am trying to execute jmeter script having multiple thread groups and want every individual thread group should pickup different certificate from key store its not working at all.
If I provided individual certificate 1st thread group and its loops execution is working fine.
Scenario are:
1.Thread group should have multiple users(threads) and some https upload request in multiple loop (working fine if single certificate details provided in system properties)
2.Multiple Thread group should have multiple users(threads) and some https upload request in multiple loop execution of thread should call different certificate details from jks keystore provided in system. properties
Please suggest solutions
There is Keystore Configuration element which scans the keystore for certificates so given you have multiple aliases there you should be able to use different SSL certificate for different virtual users.
Make sure to set the following properties:
in system.properties
javax.net.ssl.keyStore=path_to_keystore
javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType=your keystore type (JKS or PCKS12)
javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=password_of_keystore
in user.properties
https.use.cached.ssl.context=false

I need to perform a load run with 100 User Load for an API with certificate-based authentication. I had SIX different certificates in JKS format. I would like to know how can we use all these six certificates while performing a load run. Can we have some configurations like we use CSV Data config for parameterizing data?
I tried by mentioning the path of all six certificates under Keystore properties of the System property file and when I run, Jmeter starts taking the SIX certificates in a sequel, but it didn't work
Is there any other configurations I can use?
Can you please help me in achieving this
Put all your certificates into a Java Keystore
Point JMeter to use the keystore by manipulating javax.net.ssl.keyStore and javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword system properties
Add Keystore Configuration element which will traverse the certificates in the keystore and use the different certificates for each thread (virtual user)
You can take a look at How to Use Multiple Certificates When Load Testing Secure Websites article which contains step-by-step instructions on setting up keystore and JMeter
Hey I am having an issue with renewing the Certificate (also a very new user to JMeter). I have tried the suggestions from isue, but none of the solutions worked for me. When I try to add the temporary certificate, I get the message: "This personal certificate can’t be installed because you do not own the corresponding private key which was created when the certificate was requested." and when I try to use the proxycert.cmd file as a certificate, It says that I need to input a password, I tried with "password" because that's what I saw when I opened the file in an editor, but it didn't work either. I get the message that either the password wrong is, or that the format is wrong or corupt.
Can anyone help me out?
I believe you're using incorrect storage, if you want to use JMeter as system-wide certificate to capture traffic not only from browsers but also from 3rd-party applications - you should put it to Trusted Root Certification Authorities
If you want to avoid doing this funny exercise each week you can ramp-up that validity time frame by adding the next line to user.properties file:
proxy.cert.validity=365
which will make JMeter certificates valid for 1 year.
password is the default password when you specify your own keystore, when JMeter creates its proxyserver.jks it generates a random password each time, theoretically it's possible to get it by attaching debugger session to JMeter process, however this way is not too optimal.

Hi I am integrating the Jmeter with the opeshift pipeline using Jenkins to test my API(https). When the Jmeter is trying to send the request to the API I am getting following error:
Non HTTP response code: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException - Non HTTP response message: java.security.cert.CertificateException: No name matching <> found
I have tried steps to ignore the SSL certificate verification but I am unable to bypass the process.
I have created a spring boot project to run the load test as a pipeline. I am using <groupId>com.lazerycode.jmeter</groupId> and using the the jmeter file with extension .jmx to run in jenkins.
As per SSL Encryption chapter of JMeter Documentation:
The JMeter HTTP samplers are configured to accept all certificates, whether trusted or not, regardless of validity periods, etc. This is to allow the maximum flexibility in testing servers.
If the server requires a client certificate, this can be provided.
So by default JMeter will trust all certificates no matter of their validity, incomplete chain, subject not matching dns hostname, etc.
If might be the case that your application requires JMeter to send client certificate for security reasons, it can be done either using SSL Manager or providing the relevant system properties pointing to the keystore where the certificate lives.

I am new to Jmeter. I wanted to setup jmeter to stress test my server (tomcat) serving APIs. As part of which my backend server is MASSL enabled and hence i need to configure the same in jmeter. I have .cert and .key files (with a pass phrase) which I configure in postman to trigger the API endpoints.
How to setup these certificate configurations in Jmeter?.
You need to convert these certificates into something JMeter can understand (a .jks or .p12 Java Keystore), the conversion can be made using OpenSSL tool or a GUI-based solution like KeyStore Explorer
Once you have the Java Keystore with your certificate(s) you can "tell" JMeter to use this keystore for sending client-side certificates by following JMeter Properties:
javax.net.ssl.keyStore=/path/to/your/keystore
javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=your keystore password
javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType= your keystore type (JKS or PKCS12)
the settings need to go into system.properties file or can be passed to JMeter via -D command-line argument like:
jmeter -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=/path/to/your/keystore -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=your keystore password ....

We set up Jmeter for performance testing over HTTPS with client certificates (via SSL Manager). It works like a charm if we run it from GUI. But, if we start distributed testing we get a bad certificate error.
How to pass the certificates & password to the slaves?
You can configure the certificates using Java SSL System Properties
I.e. add the following lines to system.properties file on each remote slave machine:
javax.net.ssl.keyStore=certificate.p12
javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=secr3t
javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType=pkcs12
amend above values to match your settings
JMeter restart will be required to pick the properties up.
You can also pass the values via -D command-line arguments like:
jmeter -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=certificate.p12 -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=secr3t -s ...
