What is Jmeter Engine ? Is it same as Jmeter instance we have on our machine ? .. I want to understand difference between Jmeter instance and Jmeter engine , also how can we setup multiple engines on same machine so that I can put more load on application through difference engines..

I read somewhere, where one of the Jmeter expert mentioned that we can use 300 vusers at a given time , is that correct ? I dont see any limit on vusers I use in Jmeter thread group.. I can enter any number.. please clarify

  • Instead of asking for particular terminology details - could you please define your problem? Like, "I want to create a certain load, but my JMeter on my machine(s) can't handle it", etc. – Yuri G Mar 09 '17 at 00:06

Yes, Jmeter engine and jmeter instance is related terminology. One Jmeter engine can generate one instance of jmeter.

Set-up for configuring two Jmeter engines on same machine:

Pre-requisite: Jmeter should be installed on both machines

Steps:

1.Set-up master machine -

Add machine2 ip (slave machine ip) in jmeter.properties file of machine1 (master machine)enter image description here

2.Set-up slave machine - Run Jmeter-server.bat from machine2. This will make machine2 as slave

3.Launch Jmeter from machine1. You will be able to see slave engine ip in remote start enter image description here

4.You can use remote start option, this will run Jmeter test cases from both the machines
