Run Apache Jmeter though command line and generate "view result tree" file

Question

I'm running apache jmeter 3.3 on centos command line and generating ".jtl" Summary Report file using following command

./jmeter -n -t requests.jmx -l log.jtl

Can I generate some file and view result tree by importing file to apache jmeter GUI. If yes , then how.

Answer 1

To do that, just add a View Result Tree to your test and fill in the filename field:

Ensure you check the fields you want by clicking on "Configure":

Note that the more you save things the more you impact performances of JMeter

Answer 2

You can run your test as:

./jmeter -Jjmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=xml -Jjmeter.save.saveservice.response_data=true -Jjmeter.save.saveservice.samplerData=true -Jjmeter.save.saveservice.requestHeaders=true -Jjmeter.save.saveservice.url=true -Jjmeter.save.saveservice.responseHeaders=true -n -t requests.jmx -l log.jtl

Alternatively you can add the next lines to user.properties file (lives in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation)

jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=xml
jmeter.save.saveservice.response_data=true
jmeter.save.saveservice.samplerData=true
jmeter.save.saveservice.requestHeaders=true
jmeter.save.saveservice.url=true
jmeter.save.saveservice.responseHeaders=true

This way JMeter will store results in a way they could be examined in the View Results Tree listener.
