Apache JMeter™ is an open source software application, built 100% in Java, designed for load and performance testing of web applications and testing of web services (APIs). This workshop teaches you how JMeter is used to test performance both on static and dynamic resources, including a variety of dynamic web applications. In class you will simulate load on a server, group of servers, network or object to test its strength or to analyze overall performance under different load profiles and understand the test results data. The workshop format provides a rich and interactive learning experience with incremental lessons and labs that build upon one another which are then applied to a complete final project. This course offers real world solutions to real world problems.

Upon successful completion of the workshop, the candidate will receive a Certificate of Achievement.
