This is not a suitable application for JMeter; it will involve a lot
of unnecessary work.
You would be much better off using a Java HTTP library such as Apache
HttpClient (http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client/index.html) or
perhaps HttpUnit (http://httpunit.sourceforge.net/)

JMeter assumes synchronous requests, so this would be another difficulty.

Re: How can I develop Java classes, to prepare and execute a .jmx
file (JMeter scenario) and retrieve wanted texts from its response?

Hello,
I did find JMeter's API rich and complex.
However the example I explained (login & password) is just a simplified
scenario.
In fact, it may take a long time (up to several hours) to retrieve a credit
report, so I need an asynchronous mechanism, between my j2ee web app (I
forgot to explain that it should be a j2ee web app) and credit agencies' web
app.
Besides, the way of searching conclusion in a credit report in HTML, is
specific to each credit agency, and I would like to code them in different
"use cases", and use the JMeter's variable and regular expression extractor
to retrieve the credit report id, its issue date and its status (accepted or
refused), and at last store them in the database that backs also my j2ee web
app.
Given these requirements, should I use JMeter or simply a pure simple Java
HTTP client, and what examples in JMeter can I learn from, in order to
fullfill these requirements?
