This document describes JMeter properties. The properties present in jmeter.properties or reportgenerator.properties should be set in the user.properties file. These properties are only taken into account after restarting JMeter as they are usually resolved when the class is loaded.

Parameters

Attribute	Description	Required
language	Preferred GUI language. Comment out to use the JVM default locale's language. Example: language=en This property is the only one that must be set in jmeter.properties file To fully configure language ensure you set locale, see Internationalization: Understanding Locale in the Java Platform. Example for English: -Duser.language=en -Duser.region=EN	No
locales.add	Additional locale(s) to add to the displayed list. The current default list is: en, fr, de, no, es, tr, ja, zh_CN, zh_TW, pl, pt_BR. See JMeterMenuBar#makeLanguageMenu() The entries are a comma-separated list of language names. Example: locales.add=zu	No

Parameters

Attribute	Description	Required
xpath.namespace.config	Path to a Properties file containing Namespace mapping in the form prefix=Namespace. Example: ns=http://biz.aol.com/schema/2006-12-18	No
xpath2query.parser.cache.size	XPath2 query cache for storing compiled XPath queries Defaults to 400	No

SSL (Java) System properties are now in system.properties JMeter no longer converts javax.xxx property entries in jmeter.properties into System properties. These must now be defined in the system.properties file or on the command-line. The system.properties file gives more flexibility.

Parameters

Attribute	Description	Required
https.sessioncontext.shared	By default, SSL session contexts are now created per-thread, rather than being shared. The old behaviour can be enabled by setting this property to true. Defaults to: false	No
https.default.protocol	Be aware that https default protocol may vary depending on the version of JVM. See Diagnosing TLS, SSL and HTTPS and Bug 58236 . Default HTTPS protocol level: https.default.protocol=TLS This may need to be changed to: https.default.protocol=SSLv3	No
https.socket.protocols	List of protocols to enable. You may have to select only a subset if you find issues with target server. This is needed when server does not support Socket version negotiation, this can lead to errors like: javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: peer not authenticated or java.net.SocketException: Connection reset. See Bug 54759 , example: https.socket.protocols=SSLv2Hello SSLv3 TLSv1	No
https.cipherSuites	Comma-separated list of SSL cipher suites that may be used in HTTPS connections. It may be desirable to use a subset of cipher suites in order to match expected client behavior or to reduce encryption overhead in JMeter when running with large numbers of users. Errors may occur if the JVM does not support the specified cipher suites, or if the cipher suites supported by the HTTPS server do not overlap this list. See the JSSE Reference Guide. For example: https.cipherSuites=TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384,TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 If not specified, JMeter will use the default list of cipher suites supported by the JVM.	No
httpclient.reset_state_on_thread_group_iteration	Reset HTTP State when starting a new Thread Group iteration. In summarytrue means next iteration is associated to a new user. false means next iteration is associated to same user. true involves: Closing opened connection resetting SSL State Defaults to: true	No
https.use.cached.ssl.context	Control if we allow reuse of cached SSL context between iterations. Set the value to false to reset the SSL context each iteration. Defaults to: true DEPRECATED, you should use httpclient.reset_state_on_thread_group_iteration with correct value	No
https.keyStoreStartIndex	Start index to be used with keystores with many entries. The default is to use entry 0, i.e. the first. Defaults to: 0	No
https.keyStoreEndIndex	End index to be used with keystores with many entries. Defaults to: 0	No

Parameters

Attribute	Description	Required
jmeter.laf.windows_10	Classname of the Swing default UI The LAF classnames that are available are now displayed as ToolTip text when hovering over the Options/Look and Feel selection list. You can either use a full class name, as shown below, or one of the strings "System" or "CrossPlatform" which means JMeter will use the corresponding string returned by UIManager.get<name>LookAndFeelClassName(). LAF can be overridden by os.name (lowercased, spaces replaced by '_'). Order of LAF property lookup Take for example an os.name of Windows 10. JMeter would look first for a property jmeter.laf.windows_10=javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel Failing that, the OS family os.name would be used shortened to the first space. In our example JMeter would therefore look for a property jmeter.laf.windows=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel Mac apparently looks better with the System LAF set through jmeter.laf.mac=System Failing that, the JMeter default LAF can be defined through: jmeter.laf=System If none of the above jmeter.laf properties are defined, JMeter uses the CrossPlatform LAF. This is because the CrossPlatform LAF generally looks better than the System LAF. See Bug 52026 for details. When you change Look and Feel (LAF) from JMeter GUI through menu Options > Look and Feel, you should restart JMeter to ensure change is fully effective.	No
jmeter.loggerpanel.display	Display LoggerPanel. Defaults to: false	No
jmeter.loggerpanel.enable_when_closed	Enable LogViewer Panel to receive log event even when closed. Enabled since 2.12 Note this has some impact on performances, but as GUI mode must not be used for Load Test it is acceptable Defaults to: true	No
jmeter.loggerpanel.maxlength	Max lines kept in LoggerPanel, 0 means no limit. Defaults to: 1000	No
jmeter.gui.refresh_period	Interval period in ms to process the events of the listeners. Defaults to: 500	No

Configure how SampleResults are sent from server to client when using distributed testing.

Note that the mode is currently resolved on the client, while other properties (e.g. time_threshold) are resolved on the server.

Since JMeter version 2.9, default is StrippedBatch, which returns samples in batch mode (every 100 samples or every minute by default).
You can set mode by configuring:

	mode=one of the possible modes below

StrippedBatch strips response data from SampleResult, so if you need the response data, change to another mode.

Possible modes are:

Standard

Sends SampleResult one by one

Batch

Accumulates SampleResults before sending them. Configured by properties num_sample_threshold and time_threshold

Statistical

returns sample summary statistics. Configured by properties key_on_threadname and time_threshold

Stripped

Similar to Standard mode but strips Response from SampleResult. Configured by property sample_sender_strip_also_on_error

StrippedBatch

Same as Batch but strips Response from SampleResult. Configured by properties num_sample_threshold, time_threshold and sample_sender_strip_also_on_error

Asynch

Asynchronous sender; uses a queue and background worker process to return the samples. Configured by property asynch.batch.queue.size

StrippedAsynch

Same as Asynch but strips response data from SampleResult. Configured by properties asynch.batch.queue.size and sample_sender_strip_also_on_error

StrippedDiskStore

Same as DiskStore but strips response data from SampleResult

Class extending AbstractSampleSender (org.example.load.MySampleSender for example)

A custom implementation of your choice
