There are several different approaches to integrate JMeter and Maven. We needed to use one of them to integrate our JMeter test automation suite with our continuous integration server. There are two plugins available: JMeter Maven Plugin Chronos Maven Plugin I decided to use Chronos Maven plugin. It requires explicit installation of JMeter. I've successfully configured pom.xml for running our test automation suite and reporting of the test results. You need to perform the following steps: 1. Install Apache Maven 2. Create pom.xml file and put it in a directory of your choice 3. Set your local JMeter installation directory path in jmeter.home in pom.xml file 4. Set the path to your JMeter script in pom.xml 5. Set assertions in pom.xml file if required (I didn't need this, so they are not present in the example below) 6. Create a JMeter project and copy it to test subdirectory of the directory where you stored pom.xml file. Your directory structure should
test automation, scripting, system administration, etc.
