Howto: set "duration" or schedule by command line ?
Hi there,
I wasn't able to find this in the docs though I might have missed it. Is
there a way to specify via command line the duration for the test? I've had
trouble getting the scheduler to work accurately from the GUI in regards to
duration.
./jmeter -n -t someTestScript.jmx -? what flag to specify duration?
I thought I might be able to set this in the properties file and then pass
the properties file via command line?
Feedback appreciated.

Of course.
Setting the duration overrides the end time, and there's no need to
provide the startup delay if the start time has already passed.

According to the manual, you are right. But in practice, I am right.
The two are not mutually exclusive, and the manual does not fully
describe how the scheduler works. Admittedly, undocumented features can
change at anytime. I use this "bug" to do what the OP was asking
about. Set both start and end to some time in the past, and set the
duration to how long I'd like the test to run. Works like a charm.

Not quite, the rule is as follows:
Duration (seconds)
IIf the scheduler checkbox is selected, one can choose a relative end
time. JMeter will use this to calculate the End Time, and ignore the
End Time value.
Startup delay (seconds)
If the scheduler checkbox is selected, one can choose a relative
startup delay. JMeter will use this to calculate the Start Time, and
ignore the Start Time value.
Please see the manual where this is described:

If the start and end time are in the past, then they are ignored and
only duration is respected.

RE: Howto: set "duration" or schedule by command line ?
Posted by santiagoloso <sa...@gmail.com>.
I've tried this solution, and didn't worked out. Just to be sure, from the
command line, the only thing I need to do is to include the flag
-Jduration=600 (if I want it to last 10 minutes). Is that correct?
If not, I've thought another workaround (which I'm not able to test yet, due
to environment permissions), and I would like second opinion:
>From the GUI, I've selected the Scheduler and setted up duration from there
(but, GUI does not allow me just to set the duration, and keeps asking for
the Start Time and End Time that I'm managing with Windows Task Scheduler
-cuz the JMeter's scheduler does not seems to be working).
After saving my jmx file, I've looked up for ThreadGroup.Duration propertie,
and erased ThreadGroup.Start_Time and ThreadGroup.End_Time (dunno if that's
the exact name, but it was something like that).
Then, double-checked that ThreadGroup.Scheduler value was true (once again,
I don't remember the name, but all this are listed together) and saved the
jmx file once again (the edition performed on Notepad).
Is it a valid way to solve this problem?
Thanks for your time.

That I am not sure of because I never have used this scheduler
functionality. I make my tests run a fixed # of iterations, or based on
other criteria determined during the test itself.

Steve,
Thanks for the quick reply, I had tried setting it through the GUI, and
found that Jmeter hung, perhaps I was settting something wrong.
If I want test X to run for 4 hours, is it necessary to check the [x]
loop
forever ?
or by passing the jduration = 14400 is it implied that the test will
continue to run (loop) until 14400 seconds of execution has occurred?
Thanks.

No, but you must ensure that the number of loops is sufficient to last
at least 14400 seconds.

JMeter will stop the thread group when it reaches either the number of
loops or the duration (or end-time).
You can use a simple test plan with a Java Request sampler to
experiment with this without needing to access a server.

RE: Howto: set "duration" or schedule by command line ?
Posted by Steve Kapinos <St...@tandberg.com>.
You could define the value in the test plan using a property.. and then
set the property via the command line using -J
The property could also be defined in a properties fil
If the property is 'duration' in the test plan use
${__P(duration,300)}
300 is a default value you would use if the property was not defined
At the command like use
Jmeter -Jduration=500

Subject: Howto: set "duration" or schedule by command line ?
Hi there,
I wasn't able to find this in the docs though I might have missed it. Is
there a way to specify via command line the duration for the test? I've
had
trouble getting the scheduler to work accurately from the GUI in regards
to
duration.
./jmeter -n -t someTestScript.jmx -? what flag to specify duration?
I thought I might be able to set this in the properties file and then
pass
the properties file via command line?
Feedback appreciated.
Mordechai
