Dynatrace Taging-JMeter

Question

I would like to add DynaTrace tags i.e.,

dynaTrace: PC=JMETER;NA=Transaction Name;VU=Thread Group Name

to JMeter script on transaction level not request level. if any one have suggestion/answer for that please help me

Answer 1

In Dynatrace, you cannot tag the headers at transaction level. Instead, you can create Business Transactions.

You can use Business Transactions to track special transactions (e.g. login and buy) in the application under diagnosis. For example, you can track the number and response time of a login action for a specific user group for the application. The Business Transaction consists of a filter measure that checks for the occurrence for a specific user tag (e.g. a tagged web request measure). The default response time and count are selected by default. The splitting measure is application, which is also the default.

Answer 2

If you're looking for simple Apache JMeter integration with Dynatrace, then have a look at the Monitoring Plugin for JMeter provided by UbikLoadPack :

• https://ubikloadpack.com/tryout.php (select Monitoring)

This plugin allows you to integrate with:

• Dynatrace AppMon to record Dynatrace sessions and tag Web Requests, that's what you're looking for
• Dynatrace One Agent to be able to correlate response times and other monitoring graphs and Artificial Intelligence analysis
