How to Run JMeter Script Using Ant

In this post you will learn How to Run JMeter Script Using Ant,Apache JMeter providing Ant xml file in this path F:\apache-jmeter-3.1\extras, and build.xml file have below details.

<project name="ant-jmeter" default="all">
<description>
Jmeter Ant build description Default Value is "Load Test Results"
</description>
<property name="testpath" value="${user.dir}"/>
<property name="jmeter.home" value="${basedir}/.."/>
<property name="report.title" value="Load Test Results"/>

Function Mode:

<echo>funcMode = ${funcMode}</echo>
<delete file="${testpath}/${test}.html"/>
<jmeter
jmeterhome="${jmeter.home}"
testplan ="${testpath}/${test}.jmx"
resultlog="${testpath}/${test}.jtl">

XSLT Report:

<target name="xslt-report" depends="_message_xalan">
<tstamp><format property="report.datestamp" pattern="yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm"/></tstamp>
<xslt
classpathref="xslt.classpath"
force="true"
in="${testpath}/${test}.jtl"
out="${testpath}/${test}.html"
style="${basedir}/jmeter-results-detail-report${style_version}.xsl">
<param name="showData" expression="${show-data}"/>
<param name="titleReport" expression="${report.title}"/>
<param name="dateReport" expression="${report.datestamp}"/>
</xslt>
</target>

Condition:

<!-- Check that the xalan libraries are present -->
<condition property="xalan.present">
<and>
<!-- No need to check all jars; just check a few -->
<available classpathref="xslt.classpath" classname="org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl"/>
<available classpathref="xslt.classpath" classname="org.apache.xml.serializer.ExtendedContentHandler"/>
</and>
</condition>
<target name="_message_xalan" unless="xalan.present">
<echo>Cannot find all xalan and/or serialiser jars</echo>
<echo>The XSLT formatting may not work correctly.</echo>
<echo>Check you have xalan and serializer jars in ${lib.dir}</echo>
</target>

As you see in above build.xml file i have given three parameters xml values because you need to change those three values as below,please follow below steps to configure.

Build.xml file Configuration:

1.Open build.xml file with notepad or notepad++ and search with " ${test} " and rename with your jmx file name as below.

${test}.jmx - softwaretesting.jmx

${test}.html - softwaretesting.html

${test}.jtl - softwaretesting.jtl

In Function Mode , XSLT report parameter values as below.

Function Mode:

<target name="run">
<echo>funcMode = ${funcMode}</echo>
<delete file="${testpath}/SoftwareTestingdemo.html"/>
<jmeter
jmeterhome="${jmeter.home}"
testplan ="${testpath}/SoftwareTestingdemo.jmx"
resultlog="${testpath}/SoftwareTestingdemo.jtl">

XSLT Report:

<target name="xslt-report" depends="_message_xalan">
<tstamp><format property="report.datestamp" pattern="yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm"/></tstamp>
<xslt
classpathref="xslt.classpath"
force="true"
in="${testpath}/SoftwareTestingdemo.jtl"
out="${testpath}/SoftwareTestingdemo.html"
style="${basedir}/jmeter-results-detail-report${style_version}.xsl">
<param name="showData" expression="${show-data}"/>
<param name="titleReport" expression="${report.title}"/>
<param name="dateReport" expression="${report.datestamp}"/>
</xslt>
</target>

2.Save the build.xml file.

3.Now Copy softwaretesting.jmx file in F:\apache-jmeter-3.1\extras folder as below.

4.Now open Command Prompt.

5.Go to F:\apache-jmeter-3.1\extras folder path

6.Enter ant and press enter,once BUILD is successful then it will display below details in command prompt.

7.Now go to F:\apache-jmeter-3.1\extras folder ,it will generate softwaretesting.jtl,softwaretesting.html files.

8.Now open Softwaretesting.html file ,below reports will display all samples related HTML reports.
