Hi, Unless there is a nogo, I'll commit this evening the patch that on test creation add a Thread Group and a View Results tree.
I think this eases a bit first experience. Regarding this thread, I still see unfortunately on stackoverflow and twitter users running load test in gui mode and complaining about JMeter not scaling. This I think is an issue for Jmeter reputation, it's unfair but ignoring it is not a good idea I think. We discussed this in the past but didn't do anything yet: - warning on start (i don't know if we discussed a threads threshold : 50 threads) - limit View Results tree and table size in memory (patch exists but no agreement) - Have a dedicated Load Testing page on Home Page ? which would mention non gui mode, heap settings , os tuning ... I also wonder if we should not remove the default Xmx and Xms settings in jmeter file. When using Java8 , default settings may be better as they adapt to machine memory, but it can also be a problem...
