Activation
This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Use when you need to set up JMeter performance testing for a Java project — including creating the run-jmeter.sh script from the exact template, configuring load tests with loops, threads, and ramp-up, or running performance tests from the project root with custom or default settings. This should trigger for requests such as Improve the code with JMeter performance testing; Apply JMeter performance testing; Refactor the code with JMeter performance testing; Add JMeter support; Create a JMeter test plan for a Java service. Part of Plinth ToolkitKey capabilities
- →Create run-jmeter.sh script from template
- →Configure load test loops, threads, and ramp-up
- →Set up project structure for JMeter results
- →Apply executable permissions to scripts
- →Document CLI options and environment variables
How it works
The skill verifies JMeter installation, copies a verbatim template to the project root, and configures the required directory structure for load testing.
Inputs & outputs
When to use 151-java-performance-jmeter
- →Set up load testing for a Java service
- →Configure loop, thread, and ramp-up counts
- →Execute performance tests from the project root
About this skill
Run performance tests based on JMeter
Provide a complete JMeter performance testing solution by creating the run-jmeter.sh script from the exact template, making it executable, and configuring the project structure for load testing. Supports custom loops, threads, ramp-up, and environment variable overrides.
What is covered in this Skill?
- Create run-jmeter.sh in project root from the exact template (no modifications)
- Project structure: src/test/resources/jmeter/load-test.jmx, target/ for results
- Script options: -l (loops), -t (threads), -r (ramp-up), -g (GUI), -h (help)
- Environment variables: JMETER_LOOPS, JMETER_THREADS, JMETER_RAMP_UP
- Verify JMeter is installed and available before proceeding
Scope: Copy the script template verbatim. Do not modify, interpret, or enhance the template content.
Constraints
JMeter must be installed and available in PATH. If not available, show a message and exit. Use only the exact template for the run-jmeter.sh script.
- PREREQUISITE: Verify JMeter is installed and accessible via
jmeter --versionbefore creating the script - CRITICAL: Copy the run-jmeter.sh template exactly — do not modify, interpret, or enhance
- PERMISSION: Make the script executable with
chmod +x run-jmeter.sh - BEFORE APPLYING: Read the reference for the exact script template and usage instructions
- EDGE CASE: If request scope is ambiguous, stop and ask a clarifying question before applying changes
- EDGE CASE: If required inputs, files, or tooling are missing, report what is missing and ask whether to proceed with setup guidance
When to use this skill
- Improve the code with JMeter performance testing
- Apply JMeter performance testing
- Refactor the code with JMeter performance testing
- Add JMeter support
- Create a JMeter test plan for a Java service
Workflow
- Verify JMeter prerequisite
Check jmeter --version and stop with guidance if JMeter is not installed or not available in PATH.
- Read JMeter reference template
Read references/151-java-performance-jmeter.md and use the run-jmeter.sh template exactly as provided.
- Create script and project structure
Create run-jmeter.sh in project root, ensure required JMeter directories/files exist, and apply executable permission with chmod +x.
- Explain usage and environment overrides
Document CLI options (-l, -t, -r, -g, -h) and environment variable overrides (JMETER_LOOPS, JMETER_THREADS, JMETER_RAMP_UP).
Reference
For detailed guidance, examples, and constraints, see references/151-java-performance-jmeter.md.
When not to use it
- →Modifying the run-jmeter.sh template content
- →Interpreting or enhancing the template
- →When JMeter is not installed in PATH
Prerequisites
Limitations
- →Requires JMeter to be available in PATH
- →Template must be used exactly as provided
How it compares
This approach uses a standardized, immutable template for script generation rather than manual configuration.
