Why is running JMeter in Non-GUI mode recommended?

Answer»

JMETER tests can be conducted in GUI or non-GUI modes. Because the AWT (Abstract Window Toolkit) event thread can kill the tests in high LOAD conditions, it is HIGHLY advised to conduct the load test in Non-GUI mode. JMeter's GUI mode is ideal for adding and updating new configuration components, thread groups, and samplers, as well as viewing a variety of different LISTENERS for troubleshooting. The GUI option, on the other hand, has a constraint that slows down CPU consumption while running the recorded script. JMeter performance SUFFERS when several listeners are used in a script. In order to avoid this, the script should be run in non-GUI mode. In non-GUI mode, there is a benefit to driving more requests per second out of JMeter.

JMeter supports a number of non-GUI modes, including:

  • Command-line
  • ANT plugin
  • MAVEN plugin
  • Jenkins
