### The documentation URL https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/get-started.html ### Feedback Here is my situation: I have a list of URLs in a file. Imagine the file looks something like this, but it would be trivial to change it to any reasonable input format: ``` GET https://hostname.com/api/endpoint1?client=client1 GET https://hostname.com/api/endpoint2?client=client2 POST https://hostname.com/api/endpoint3?client=client1 GET https://hostname.com/api/endpoint4?client=client4 .......many more such examples ``` I wanted to use JMeter to generate a script that, roughly speaking, hits each of these URLs in order so that I could upload the script to a cloud-based load testing tool. If I could get it to do something fancy like let me configure the hostname with a variable, or adjust the timing or parallelization dynamically, that would have been great. But for a minimum proof-of-concept here, a script that executes each request one at a time in order would have been perfectly adequate. This feels to me like, roughly, the minimum possible thing I could be asking from your load testing tool. If load testing tools had a "Hello World" tier of basic intro example, it seems like "make a series of requests in order" should be it. Your docs could not be less approachable for questions like this. I'm sure there are people coming to this tool who already know 95% of the functionality of this tool and are just looking for clarification on how to import a Java library, or whatever, but you should consider possibly providing information for the rest of us too. I've spent too long writing this up already when I could be looking for different, less newbie-hostile tools to use, but in conclusion, would it kill you to write up something like a step-by-step guide to building an example script? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
