The link people.apache.org/~mkostrze/jmeter-eclipse/index.html is about launching jmeter from within the eclipse. But what we want to know is given a jmx script, is there a way to execute it simply as we execute a Junit from the eclipse IDE. – Praneeth Sep 12 '14 at 06:17

Are you only thinking to run JMeter from eclipse or want a proper integration of JMeter in Eclipse. I have written a blog on how to integrate JMeter in Eclipse (without errors) which will help in extending JMeter and enjoying all advantages of Eclipse IDE.

Use Eclipse External Tool
- Eclipse menu: Run -> External Tools -> External Tools Configuration...
- The dialog External Tools Configuration opens
- From the tree on the left select Program
- Use left mouse button and select from the mouse menu New or use the left icon (above the tree) and select New launch configuration
- On the right side of the tree, opens the panel, where details of this new lauch configuration can be filled in
- Enter as Name: JMeter sample
- Enter as Location: The location where JMeter is installed
(on windows something like
C:\Program Files\apache\jmeter\bin\jmeter.bat
) (on Linux like/opt/apache/jmeter/bin/jmeter
) - Enter as Working Directory: ${workspace_loc:/jmeter-project} (use the button Browse Workspance..., to select the project, in your workspace where the JMeter script are located. Here the project
jmeter-project
is shown) - Close the dialog by using the button Run, which should launch JMeter.
Info The icon Stop, does not work, as this actually launches a script, which launches the Java application JMeter.
Optionally add parameters
- Enter as Arguments:
-t src\test\jmeter\sample.jmx
(the path of the JMeter script to launch) - Enter as Arguments:
-q src\test\jmeter\environment.properties
(some external properties file, use${__P(key-name)}
)
See JMeter options and Parameterising Tests for the details.

1@AVI Running JMeter from a Maven project is possible as well. Have a look at this article https://medium.com/@gabriel.starczewski/running-jmeter-tests-with-maven-and-maven-wrapper-6725aa025bd9 – Verhagen Jun 27 '22 at 09:01
