How can I launch a specific "thread group" in a JMeter test plan from the command line?
How can I launch a specific group of threads in a test plan from the command line? I have a test plan (project file) that contains two "thread groups": one for crawling a site and the other for invoking specific URLs with parameters. From the command line that I am running with Maven like this:
mvn.bat -Dnamescsv = src / test / resources / RandomLastNames.csv -Ddomainhost = stgweb.domain.com -Dcrawlerthreads = 2 -Dcrawlerloopcount = 10 -Dsearchthreads = 5 -Dsearchloopcount = 5 -Dresultscsv = Jmeter cleanResults.csv
I want to pass an argument to run only one of the two "thread groups" in this project file. Can you do it with JMeter? I don't want to use an IF controller unless I have to, because that sounds like a "hack". I know SoapUI allows you to do this with the "-s" option.
I asked this question on the JMeter forum .

We use the while controller in our tests. It doesn't look like it to me, it works well. With JMeter properties, you can easily enable and disable thread groups. Please note: you cannot change your status if the test is already running.
- Add While controller - $ {__ P (threadActive)}
- Set JMeter property to JMeter load (-JthreadActive = true)
- Launch test
Note that $ {__ P (threadActive)} is equal to $ {__ P (threadActive)} == true, nothing but true will cause the thread group not to start
