[ANNOUNCE] Apache JMeter 5.2 released
The Apache JMeter team is pleased to announce the availability of Apache
JMeter 5.2 (38eb2be8fb).
This release brings a lot of new and improved features for developers to
deliver load tests faster as part of continuous development factory.
This release brings also two major changes for the distributed
version-control system and the building tool:
- migration from Subversion (svn) to Git repository (compliant with
GitHub and ASF GitBox)
- migration from Apache Ant to Gradle build system
You can read the New and Noteworthy section to view improvements and
full list of changes at:

JMeter 5.2 requires Java 8+ to run.
== All users are highly recommended to upgrade ==
The Apache JMeter application is a 100% pure Java application designed
to test server applications.
It can be used to:
* generate test loads
* measure performance.
* test functional behavior
It includes support for protocols such as HTTP(S), JDBC, JMS, FTP, LDAP,
TCP, native calls and others.
It can also be easily extended with user-written code.
