Can Jmeter master be used as a load generator instance in distributed testing framework? Since we mention host IPs, will it work to mention localhost and generate load from master?

Thanks, Madhav

  • Start jmeter-server.bat/sh on load generator machine with server address (which is its own ip/address). This way you will run two jmeter instances (one master, one slave) on master machine. One generating load and one controlling test and slaves. – Nachiket Kate Aug 30 '15 at 18:48

If you are launching from JMeter UI to start all instances - 127.0.0.1 (localhost) is available.

Both JMeter documentation pages are good source of information. https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/jmeter_distributed_testing_step_by_step.pdf http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/remote-test.html
