How to run two .jmx files together in JMeter and create one report for both files?

Question

How to run two .jmx files together in JMeter and create one report for both files.

I know we can run two .jmx scripts by using the below-listed command in JMeter,

=> Jmeter.bat or Jmeter.sh -n -t scritp1.jmx & Jmeter.bat or Jmeter.sh -n -t scritp2.jmx .

But how to create one shell script for both .jmx file and make one report.

Here is my requirement :

I am having a requirement for running 1000 users and need to run 500 - 500 users twice from two scrips. Also, I am using just two users and ran it multiples times to reach 500 requests.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

On Windows you can use start command, i.e. create a batch file looking like:
```
start jmeter -n -t test1.jmx -l result1.jtl
start jmeter -n -t test2.jmx -l result2.jtl 
```
when the scripts finish you can combine the .jtl files using Merge Results tool
On Linux and other Unix-like operating systems you can use GNU Parallel like:
```
parallel jmeter -n -t test{}.jmx -r -l result{}.jtl ::: 1 2 
```
It might be easier to use Taurus tool as a wrapper, this way you won't have to merge results manually after the run, the relevant Taurus YAML configuration file would be something like:
```
---
execution:
- scenario:
    script: test1.jmx
- scenario: 
    script: test2.jmx
```
