Run http sample in Jmeter for 1 minute and generate only 200 requests - jmeter

Please help me to achieve this type of load testing in Jmeter,i have configured Scheduler configuration but it is not running as per Duration as 60 minutes with in 10 seconds it is completing the requests and my Vusers -5 and Loop Count-50
Please help how to prepare this type of scenarios.

If you need 200 requests - decrease loops count to 40 (5 users x 40 loops == 200 total requests)
Also consider using Constant Throughput Timer or Throughput Shaping Timer to limit the throughput to 200 requests per minute (something like 3.3 requests per second).

Jmeter test scenario setup with target transactions per hour

My Jmeter script have 2 requests Login and Logout with response time around 13-15 sec together (Login is 12-14 sec and Logout is 0.5sec). I need to run these 2 requests one after other to reach N transactions(for each request exactly) in one hour.So together 2N transactions/hour. How can I achieve this.
The most straightforward approach is just to increase number of threads in the Thread Group. If 1 user can execute both requests in 15 seconds it means that he can execute 4 requests per minute or 240 requests per hour.
However given your response times are fluctuating between 13 and 15 you might want to reduce JMeter's throughput slightly using i.e. Constant Throughput Timer or Precise Throughput Timer

Jmeter - Calculating Ramp-up period

I am trying to send 1100 requests per minute to my API endpoint for a period of 5 minutes, so in total, I will make 5500 requests to the endpoint.
Based on the above requirement, Here is how I have set up my Jmeter:
It seems like I have misconfigured Jmeter, because in the end I can see Jmeter has made 8401 requests to the API instead of 5500.
What have I missed in the configuration?
Does the "Infinite" check-box need to be checked or unchecked?
The number of requests you're expecting (which is 5500) for this test plan is wrong.
As per your expectation, I think, you are making confusion between the Threads and Requests.
Ramp up is the time in which all the users arrive on your tested application server.
Requests are simulated by samplers but threads are the simulation of users.
According to your test plan:
- Total Number of Threads: 1100 vitual users
- Ramp-up time: 60 (1 min)
- Loop count: Infinite
- Test duration: 300 sec (5 min)
- No of requests/sampler in Test Plan: Unknown, assuming it 1
JMeter Execution:
JMeter will kick off those 1100 virtual users in 60 seconds according to the ramp-up time. So, (1100/60)~ 18 users will be active in every second for the first minute of your test. Each thread/user will execute the requests or samplers you have defined in your test plan hierarchy. As you have defined the loop count to infinite, each thread will execute the requests repeatedly until the test finishes. After 60 seconds, all of your 1100 users will be actively hitting those samplers/requests for the remaining 4 mins.
So the total number of requests you will be able to make through JMeter depends on your application response time.
If the avg response time of your requests is 1 second (assuming you have only 1 requests in your test plan), then you will be able to hit total 264000 (264000/240 = 1100 requests per second) for the last 4 mins (when all of your 1100 users are active) of your tests. You can also verify this accordingly by using Active Threads Over Time and Hits Per Second listeners.
So, Please double check the avg response time of your application or the requests/samplers you are using in your test plan.
If you want to control JMeter's throughput to 1100 per minute, you can use a Constant Throughput Timer at your test plan level and use target throughput value as 1100.
Do not forget to add the count of ramp-down time in your test duration. Yes, when you ramp up i.e. in the first minute generally you get more requests as threads are starting. In your case, your test duration should be 7 mins (60 seconds for the ramp-up 1100 users + 300 seconds for 5500 requests + 60 seconds for the ramp down for 1100 users).
You can also check this thread for more : How should I calculate Ramp-up time in Jmeter.
Please note- The total number of requests is related to throughput, Whereas the number of active threads performing the same activity is related to concurrency.
I am trying to send 1100 requests per minutes to my API endpoint for a period of 5 minutes, so in total I will make 5500 requests to the endpoint.
I don't know how you came with this 5500 number but this is not very correct.
Your setup means that:
JMeter will add 18 virtual users each second for 60 seconds
After 60 seconds pass JMeter will run 1100 users for another 4 minutes
The total number of requests JMeter will be able to make will mostly depend on application response time.
If you want to limit JMeter's throughput to 1100 requests per minute consider using Constant Throughput Timer or Precise Throughput Timer
If you don't want to limit JMeter's throughput but want 5500 executions either:
Set "Loop Count" to 5 (but in that case you might fail to get 1100 concurrent users)
Or use Throughput Controller in Total Executions mode so JMeter would stop after executing 5500 requests

Jmeter Throughput Shaping Timer sending more requests then desired

I am using Jmeter 4.0 with Throughput Shaping Timer and I have mentioned my configuration as follows:
bzm - Concurrency Thread Group:
Target Concurrency 1000
ramp up time : 1
ramp up steps: 1
Hold Target Rate: 100 min
jp#gc - Throughput Shaping Timer
Start RPS: 333 || End Rps: 333 || Duration(sec): 1200
Since the test duration is mentioned as 1200 seconds and Rps is 333/sec so number of request hits through the test should be (333*1200) = 399600. But actual number of hits coming in range of 400000 - 410000 Requests per second.
How can Throughput Shaping Timer be restricted to not send extra requests?
Your Total test duration isn't 1200 seconds. Looking into your Concurrency Thread Group Configurations, your test duration is exactly 6001 seconds (Ramp up for 1000 user is 1 sec and the Hold Target Rate time is 6000 seconds).
To get your desired RPS, You have to follow the below formula to define the number of threads in Concurrency Thread Groups:
Threads pool size can be calculated like RPS * <max response time> / 1000
If your response time is 1 second, then 333 Threads are enough to achieve this RPS. You have used more threads in this case I guess.
According to your given test plan, it is working like 1000 users are active in 1 second and then they will try to achieve 333 RPS for 1200 seconds and then they will maintain 1000 users requests for remaining time (6001-1220=4801 seconds) as you mentioned 1000 users will hold the load for 100 mins. For this reason, you are getting extra requests than desired.
So, Define number of threads and ramp up time accordingly in your Thread groups and also sync your test duration properly (in this case hold load time could be 20 mins not 100 mins).
JMeter is not capable of immediately stopping 1000 threads when the Throughput Shaping Timer reaches its duration limit, JMeter "tells" threads to stop one 1200 seconds pass and it might take a while to gracefully shut the threads down.
Given your setup the only way of having exactly 399600 samplers is using Throughput Controller in Total Executions mode like:
This way you will get confidence that not more than 339600 samplers will be executed (the number can be less by the way if your application response time will be higher than 300 ms)

Jmeter:- How to achieve fluctuated TPS in jmeter

I want to get fluctuation in TPS using JMeter like given below
1 TPS to 10 TPS -- 60 minutes
2 TPS to 4 TPS -- next 60 minutes
10 TPS to 15 TPS -- for next 60 Minutes
1 TPS to 3 TPS -- for next 60 minutes
How to achieve such various TPS with respect to time.
I am using jmeter 4.0
My Requests are like
Login Application
Create Order
Active Order
Disconnect order
Cancel Order
Users: 300
Ramp Up: 300 seconds
Duration 4 Hours (14400 seconds)
Application can handle upto 45 TPS (Already Tested this)
Here we want to Check Semaphore and Server Res. memory are increasing/decreasing as per TPS increase/Decrease. (This is my target of this test)
For Your case you can use below link to understand the tree to create and use of throughput controller-
Purpose of Throughput Controller?
And I would suggest you to use multiple Once only controller and apply throughput controller with each of them and define the throughput values you want to achieve one by one, For Example
Thread Group
Runtime Controller (60 minutes)
once only controller
HTTP Sampler
Throughput controller (1 TPS to 10 TPS)
Run-time Controller (next 60 minutes)
Once Only Controller
HTTP Sampler
Throughput Controller (2 TPS to 4 TPS)
You can see the progress in listeners( In graphical form).
Hope It works :)
You should work with Ultimate Thread Group
In your case 3 lines with Hold Load For 3600 seconds
Each line will have different Initial delay, first is 0, second is 3600 (hour) and third is 7200 (2 hours)

How to correctly configure number of requests in JMeter?

My performance test strategy is to use JMeter to send 3 different requests to a linux server continually. They are Init, Calculate and Apply.
The number of active users of peak hour is 40 and the number of each request per hour is 200. The load test should be conducted with the peak usage with no less than one hour.
If my understanding is correct, running the test for two hours eventually there will be 1200 samples shown in the result table (200 requests * 3 * 2 hours). However, with the following configuration there are much more samples sent to the server.
Thread Group:
- Number of threads: 200
- Ramp-up time: 3600 seconds
- Duration: 7200 seconds
I have also tried setting the number of threads 50, the result is still far more than my expectation.
May I know how to configure the JMeter correctly ?
Your configuration should be:
Number of threads : 40
Ramp-up time: Should be short in your case, its value tells in how much time threads will go from 0 to 40.
Duration is ok
Finally, as you want 200 requests per hour, which would be 600 for the 3 ones, it would be 10 per minute, you need to use Constant Throughput Timer inside a Test Action:
