Jmeter request and report validation

Question

My Requirement is to execute 10 request per second for 5 minutes. The configuration I have used is

Thread Group Properties: number of threads : 600 ramp up period : 60 Loop count : 5, Add Sampler -> Flow Control Action Select Logical Action on thread as Pause Duration(milliseconds) :60000

I used the below command to run jmx from command line to generate xls and generate html report.

/jmeter.sh -n -t demo.jmx -l demo.xls -e -o ./report 

Need to know if the configuration I have mapped is correct or not? I have also looked at constant throughput timer and Runtime controller to stop the execution after 5 mins? I am not able to validate the end result?

Answer 1

You can see what actual throughput your test generated using Transactions Per Second listener or the relevant chart in the HTML Reporting Dashboard

With regards to configuring JMeter for sending 10 requests per second for 5 minutes I would rather recommend going for Concurrency Thread Group and Throughput Shaping Timer combination.
