Overview

Welcome. Thanks for checking out this small but useful plugin to add direct Groovy support to JMeter.

Inspired by Alexandru Popescu's blog post about running Groovy scripts as JMeter samplers. This project uses JMeter's bean plugin architecture to create a simple sampler that runs any arbitrary Groovy script.

To use this plugin, just simply drop in the JAR to your JMETER_HOME/lib/ext directory and you're all set.

Email with any questions, submit defects for improvements, or let me know if you'd like to contribute code to the project.

All the best, -Matthew McCullough

Why Groovy?

Groovy fits well into the performance and load testing world where scripts are changed often and on-the-fly and makes accessing all types of resources and parsing XML extremely simple.
