Overview

OctoPerf enhances Apache JMeter™ into a modern, enterprise‑grade load‑testing platform built for ease, scalability, and deep performance insight. It supports full JMeter compatibility—including custom plugins and existing JMX/JTL files—combined with drag‑and‑drop script design, intelligent parameter correlation, distributed load generation, and powerful reporting and analysis capabilities. The goal is to streamline performance testing for teams, significantly reducing scripting time while handling large‑scale test scenarios.

Features and Capabilities

• **JMeter Compatibility: **Fully supports standard JMeter functionality, custom plugins, and scripts. Seamlessly import JMX files and existing JTL results for migration and continuity.
• **Visual Script Design: **Drag & drop editing interface with regex-based correlation and CSV file split/distribution features, enabling dynamic realistic test scenarios without coding.
• **CSV & Data Management: **Central file manager for CSVs. Automatically distribute unique data values across virtual users, ensuring concurrency without duplication.
• **Advanced Controllers & Timers: **Adds throughput configuration, pacing, think‑time overrides, and JMeter controllers (While, ForEach etc.) to create realistic test flow control and iteration logic.
• **Automation & CI Integration: **Full REST API access covering design, runtime, and results workflows. Enables scripting and orchestration via CI pipelines (e.g., Jenkins), supporting automated load‑test execution.
• **Modern UI and Reporting Engine: **Updated interface with unique report numbering, trend graphs, insight detection, templating, and enhanced analysis tools for comparison and anomaly spotting.
• **Validation & Troubleshooting: **Pre‑test validation with sanity checks for virtual users, dynamic error reporting before full load campaigns commence.
