Performance Testing in R using Apache JMeter Couple weeks ago, I stumbled upon an open source project from T-Mobile called loadtest. You can check the repository at GitHub.
Why loadtest package?
T-Mobile is one of the largest cellular network in USA. loadtest package has been released by T-Mobile Tech team. The primary objective of the team is to load test the APIs without leaving the R environment.
Just by installing the loadtest – a R package and by writing just a line of code, you can simulate the workload.
To demonstrate the R package capability, team has released a demo website http://teststuff.biz/ which has the API version of MIT DeepMoji project.
DeepMoji converts a string into emojis. You can check this link https://deepmoji.mit.edu/ for more details.
loadtest R package leverages Apache JMeter under the hood.
Now, lets dive into how to setup the R environment for load testing by installing R in Windows 10 and by leveraging R extension in Visual Studio Code.
Prerequisites
Download R 3.6.1 for Windows and validate the checksum
Download R Tools for Windows
Download Visual Studio Code w/ R Extension
Download Pandoc for Windows
Download Apache JMeter (latest version would be preferable), this demo uses JMeter 5.2
