JMeter Best Practices during Script Creation, script run & after load run

During Script Creation:


1. Script Name: The script Name should have:
a. Application Name
b. Application Version
c. Name of subtab or Module(not required if covers all scenarios)
d. Script Version
these parts should be followed by an underscore. eg. MNewsV2_1.8_Search_Ver1.jmx
2. Comments: In the JMeter Test Plan Window Comments Box enter the following comments:
/*
###################################################
# Created by - XXXXXX
# Application - XXXXXX
# Release - XXX
# Version - XX
# Data file location: XXXXX
# Creation date : XXXXX
# Last Modified Date - XXXXX
# Script flow---> Launch-->Login--->search-->Save-->Logout
# QA Comments - Inserted think time, comments and parameterized BaseURL
##################################################
*/
If required comments can also be added in other JMeter components.
3. Add Transaction Controllers: Each and every transaction should follow the correct naming
conventions. Eg Launch Application, Login Application, Agent Tab etc.
4. Grouping: Proper Grouping should be done so that the script and reports are readable.
5. Data file Location: Keep script and supporting data files in the same folder.
6. Domain Name: Make domain name/base URL as a Parameter so that the same script can be
used in different(staging as well as production) environments.
