Hello, I noticed that newbies are often lost at start when using jmeter and search how to add a sampler for example, or don't know where to find some particular component in tree menu.
1) I suggest that we add a Thread group by default to a new test plan. As long as a view results tree. Afaik, I always end up having those 2 elements. 2) In the future we should think about a way to simplify gui. I think we discussed this in the past but test profile seem to be useful: - expert : as today - http : keep only http protocol related elements + usual pre/post processors, listeners ... -jms same but for http -jdbc - java - ldap ... There would be a visible component (toolbar) to switch between profiles. 3) Third idea(needs to be improved) add a palette on the right with a selectable number of components. Users could drag them on tree, this would avoid the unfolding of tree menu at different levels. Other ideas ? Thoughts ? Regards -- Cordialement. Philippe Mouawad.
