This JMeter plugin provides a sender and receiver sampler for Eclipse Hono.

Installation

• Run mvn clean install assembly:single to build the needed jar with dependencies for JMeter
• Install JMeter
• Copy the target/hono-jmeter-<version>-jar-with-dependencies.jar into the <jmeter-installation>/lib/ext directory.
• Start JMeter

Provided testplan

To start you can load the test plan src/jmeter/hono_jmeter_runtime.jmx in JMeter. It provides a test plan, which runs receiver and sender sampler for a given time with a given amount of threads (devices/solution-receivers). It assumes the typical Hono "get started" docker installation.

You may need to change some properties of the Hono Sender/Hono Receiver - e.g. the truststore path, ports etc.

Important

• If you want to use more than one thread for the receivers, you should configure the qpid router to balanced (vs. multicast).
• Sender could be configured to wait for n active receivers (from this test plan and JMeter instance) - this could be used to make sure, that the receivers on the address (like telemetry/DEFAULT_TENANT) are started before sending begins.
