Dear jMeter list,  (-user list included due to amount of commit
msgs on -dev, followup set to -dev)

We are using jMeter to perform conformance and regression tests
periodically (typically every 15 minutes, for a large number of tests),
and are looking for ways to push integration a bit further. We are
investigating whether it is possible to develop the option described below:

---
The ability to POST a .jmx file to a running jMeter server over an
HTTP connection using a REST (or SOAP) interface and return the results,
either directly (in the same connection) or via a call-back URL. This
would be the equivalent of using -t and -l options on the command-line
with the benefit that the server runs continuously and the client-side
calls for executing a script become very cheap (i.e. no Java startup
time). The API should be documented and specs made available to the
community.
---

We would like to know if this is in fact feasible (or even sensible)
project. And if so, we are hoping to be able to sponsor a large part of
the development costs for any jMeter developer who likes to develop
this. The goal of this project is to have this included in vanilla
jMeter in a way such that the jMeter community is able to support and
maintain the code (with us) after the initial development. Therefore,
naturally, the implementation would be licensed under the same license
as jMeter.

Please let us know your opinion.

Kind regards,
