Question

I have a question about Jmeter on MAC. 1. I got new computer and try to download Jmeter, all the downloads from apach is not opened. 2. I somehow managed via guide on net to download Jmeter 3.1, but in mac how I find the lib folder? and the EXT folder, this is much more harder than in win computer, I am new in mac and not understand where to put jars

Answer 1

Step 1 : Got to Jmeter site and download binaries . Here . After this Unzip at some preferred location.

Step 2 : Once downloaded , open ur terminal in MAC. Got to the location where the Jmeter is. See the bin folder. Go inside it. Then type sh ./jmeter.sh . Basically the bin folder have jmeter.sh file which executes it.

You need not install any Jmeter. This approach works fine. Also, make sure you have java installed. IF you are not sure, Here Note that you must have Java 8 or Java 9 for Jmeter 4. Any specific reasons why use Jmeter 3.1 ?

Answer 2

On Mac, download the latest JMeter 4.0 tar.gz file and expand it.

Install Java 8 and you'll be able to run it.
