JMeter doesn't support providing URL for a script. – Kiril S.

As far as I know JMeter doesn't support scripts to be added and run via a URL. For example, Try to open a script from the same GitHub location in the GUI mode. I guess you won't be able to! It will allow you to select script from your system or your local network only. Same principle applies for Non-GUI mode as well. Your test script needs to be on the system or on the same local network from where you are running your tests.

Method 1:

You can do it if you use Jmeter from the Java code as specified here: " RUN A JMETER TEST THROUGH A PROGRAM (FROM JAVA CODE)" for an existing jmx.

Instead of a FileInputStream you can use URL.openStream as described in this other post here.

Method 2:

Use Jmeter from the Java code as specified, but instead of specifying an existing jmx you can define it in the code.

    // Test Plan
    TestPlan testPlan = new TestPlan("Create JMeter Script From Java Code");

    // Construct Test Plan from previously initialized elements
    testPlanTree.add("testPlan", testPlan);
    testPlanTree.add("loopController", loopController);
    testPlanTree.add("threadGroup", threadGroup);
    testPlanTree.add("httpSampler", httpSampler);

    // Run Test Plan
    jmeter.configure(testPlanTree);
    jmeter.run();
