you can specify a time on the ThreadGroup. Check the scheduler box and you will get options to specify the time.
However what I meant use windows Task scheduler to start up separate jmeter instances at a predefined time on different machines (or perhaps at exactly the same time). This means not using the distributed test functionality of Jmeter , you will run each jmeter instance by itself >i got connection refused error. You really need to provide better information if you expect people to diagnose your problems. What did you do , where did you get this error, at what step , what log did you see. regards deepak On Thu, Oct 1, 2009 at 11:21 AM, nanduri <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > Can u tell me where is task scheduler in jmeter i already tried with the > below document but im not aable to succeded i got connection refused > error.please help me in this.How do i this in linux and windows. > > Thanks, > kirann > > Deepak Shetty wrote: > > > > > http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/jmeter_distributed_testing_step_by_step.pdf > > > > You can also run jmeter as standalone on separate instances (use > > taskscheduler in windows or cron in unix to start all the tests at the > > same > > time) , write the output to a CSV file and then simply combine the > > results. > > > > regards > > deepak > > > > > > On Thu, Oct 1, 2009 at 10:33 AM, nanduri <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > >> > >> Hi,\Can u tell me ho do we run the scripts in btch mode im new to > >> jmeter.Please help me out.Actually i want to generate 2000 threads as i > >> read > >> form documentation distributed testing is best could u please help me, > >> > >> Thanks, > >> kirann > >> > >> Voarick Fabrice wrote: > >> > > >> > Hi Oliver, > >> > > >> > Thanks for your reply, I guess you are right , this distributed > testing > >> is > >> > really problematic when addressing more than one nic. > >> > > >> > Best Regards, > >> > Fabrice > >> > > >> > > >> > Fabrice Voarick > >> > > >> > Architecture & Live Media > >> > > >> > UEFA Media Technologies SA > >> > > >> > Tel. +41 (0)22 707 25 19 > >> > Mobile +41 (0)79 292 66 37 > >> > Email: [email protected] > >> > > >> > Route de St-Cergue 9 > >> > CH-1260 Nyon 1, Switzerland > >> > Tel. +41 (0)848 00 25 25 > >> > Fax +41 (0)848 01 25 25 > >> > > >> > > >> > Europe's football website: http://www.uefa.com > >> > > >> > -----Original Message----- > >> > From: Oliver Erlewein (DSLWN) [mailto:[email protected]] > >> > Sent: vendredi, 11. août 2006 07:26 > >> > To: JMeter Users List > >> > Subject: RE: Distributed testing > >> > > >> > Hi Fabrice, > >> > > >> > Save yourself a lot of trouble, start the tests in batch mode on all > >> > machines time synchronised and then collate the results after the test > >> > and evaluate them.
