            Bug ID: 62192
           Summary: Starting the load test at a specifies time.
           Product: JMeter
           Version: 4.0
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Main
          Assignee: issues@jmeter.apache.org
          Reporter: ASF.Software.Timo@Leefers.eu
  Target Milestone: ---

Since JMeter Version 4.0 it is not possible to configure Thread-Group to start
at a specified time (s. Bug 61549).

It would be great to have the option to start the load-test at a specified time
at least via command-line option like --startAT that support e.g. these
formats: YYYY-mm-ddTHH:MM:SS" (2018-31-12T23:40:20) and "HH:MM:SS" (23:40:20).

The start of a specified thread-group depend on this given startTime and the
configured delay.

The end of the test is specified by the thread-groups duration parameter.

We want jmeter to start loadtests at a later (e.g. in the night). Up to jmeter
4.0 we could do this via start-time in the Thread-Groups but we need a tool for
doing this.

Best regard.

--- Comment #1 from Philippe Mouawad <p....@ubik-ingenierie.com> ---
Hello,
There are a lot of ways to schedule start of a test:
- Basically in a script add sleep
- Use Jenkins
- Use System schedulers

JMeter feature was bloated and confusing with the scheduling based on duration
and rampup.

So I am afraid I'll have to close this one as WONTFIX.

Regards
