JMeterConvert:convert my jmeter script to dynaTrace header

Question

I am trying convert my jmeter script to dynaTrace header, using JMeterConvert. As installing JMeterConvert was not given clearly in the site I was referring I feel like I am lost. Can anyone kindly help me with that.

I have downloaded JMeterScriptConverter which has three files:

1. JMeterConvert
2. JMeterConvert.sh
3. scriptconverter

Answer 1

The script you are mentioning is an old unmaintained converter.

To integrate JMeter with Dynatrace you would need to follow:

• https://community.dynatrace.com/community/display/DOCDT63/Integration+with+Web+Load+Testing+and+Monitoring+Tools#

Use a HeaderManager that you put under Thread Group, thanks to JMeter scoping rules it will apply to all requests.

Then in this HeaderManager add a Header :

X-Dynatrace

That will contain:

NA=${__samplerName()};SN=;TE=;SI=WLT;VU=-${__threadNum()}

Where:

ThreadGroupName : name of your thread group
