Performance Error in NonGUIDriver java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Question

I have maven project, with the help of which I am trying to execute a jmx file, running JMeter with (jmeter-maven-plugin). I have the following console output

  P E R F O R M A N C E    T E S T S
[INFO] -------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Invalid value detected for <postTestPauseInSeconds>.  Setting pause to 0...
[INFO]
[INFO]
[INFO] Executing test: ZawyaJmeterTest.jmx
[INFO] Writing log file to: D:\tools\jmeter_examples\Example\jmeter-maven-example\target\jmeter\logs\ZawyaJmeterTest.jmx.log
[INFO] Error in NonGUIDriver java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Problem loading XML from:'D:\tools\jmeter_examples\Example\jmeter-maven-example\target\jmeter\testFiles\ZawyaJmeterTest.jmx', missing class com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.ConversionException: No field 'sentBytes' found in class 'org.apache.jmeter.samplers.SampleSaveConfiguration' : No field 'sentBytes' found in class 'org.apache.jmeter.samplers.SampleSaveConfiguration'

I thought in order to fix the issue org.apache.jmeter.samplers.SampleSaveConfiguration I tried to add SampleSaveConfiguration class in dependency

 <dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.jmeter</groupId>
    <artifactId>ApacheJMeter_core</artifactId>
    <version>3.1</version>
</dependency>

But It did not helped in fact. Than I looked for problem No field 'sentBytes' found in class 'org.apache.jmeter.samplers.SampleSaveConfiguration', but in class SampleSaveConfiguration I found field private boolean sentBytes; I do not know in what way search such issue.

When running JMeter test locally it is fine -

d:\tools\jmeter_examples\Example\jmeter-maven-example>jmeter -n -t D:\tools\jmeter_examples\Example\jmeter-maven-example\src\test\jmeter\ZawyaJmeterTest.jmx -l D:\tools\jmeter_examples\Example\jmeter-maven-example\target\jmeter\results\ZawyaJmeterTest.jtl
    Writing log file to: d:\tools\jmeter_examples\Example\jmeter-maven-example\jmeter.log
    Created the tree successfully using D:\tools\jmeter_examples\Example\jmeter-maven-example\src\test\jmeter\ZawyaJmeterTest.jmx
    Starting the test @ Wed Nov 30 17:26:53 EET 2016 (1480519613563)
    Waiting for possible Shutdown/StopTestNow/Heapdump message on port 4445
    Tidying up ...    @ Wed Nov 30 17:27:07 EET 2016 (1480519627819)
    ... end of run

Does anybody faced such issue? Or recommend some ways of the decision, please!!!

You are trying to specify the JMeter version wrong, see github.com/jmeter-maven-plugin/jmeter-maven-plugin/wiki/… – Monjo

Answer 1

It seems that current version of jmeter-maven-plugin (2.0.3) lags a bit behind the JMeter versions (current is 3.1).

I had absolutely the same exception when tried to run my 3.1-versioned jmx. But, when I've recreated the jmx with JMeter GUI of version 2.13, it worked well with jmeter-maven-plugin of version 2.0.3.

Probably it is worth to downgrade your working version of JMeter.

Version 2.1.0 is now out, which defaults to JMeter 3.1 – Monjo

You can also specify the version of JMeter you want the plugin to use, so you don't need to wait for a new release to use the latest version of JMeter: github.com/jmeter-maven-plugin/jmeter-maven-plugin/wiki/… – Monjo

Answer 2

Last version 2.6.0 of jmeter-maven-plugin now support last version of JMeter 3.3 and is now maintained by 2 persons among which one committer of Apache JMeter project so it now tightly follows JMeter releases.

See this on how to configure it:

• https://wiki.apache.org/jmeter/JMeterMavenPlugin
• https://github.com/jmeter-maven-plugin/jmeter-maven-plugin/wiki/Basic-Configuration

All your issues should be fixed.
