EC2 + InfluxGrafana
Hi Oliver,
Congrats on creating an exceptional batch file which helps us a lot. I am trying to build a script which also incorporates the InfluxDB + Grafana Dashboard as well.
I have not tested this, but I would like to know if you have any insight if I had a GraphiteBackendListener into the script and make the test push the data into InfluxDB and I want to be able to view the dashboards in Grafana?
I am looking at tweaking your scripts, but meanwhile wanted to understand your views.
This should just work. I can't see why you would need to change the script. As I see it, you just need to:
- Create and configure an influxDB server running Grafana
- Add a BackendListener to your jmeter test
- Make sure that the instances you create using this script are able to communicate to the influxDB server (open it to the world for testing and then restrict as required)
- Run test
Why not give it a go and write about how you got on?
Did you have any luck with this? There's a lot of potential to this integration, I'm curious how you got on.
Hi,
You can already integrate with influx and grafana. Just use the backend listener which is already included in jmeter to post to influx-db running the grafana plugin. Then you can create your dashboard in a separate instance of grafana.
Personally, I eventually just switched to my own custom reporting solution. The metrics you get in grafana via the jmeter plugin are fairly limited. On Apr 16, 2016 6:29 PM, "Oliver Lloyd" [email protected] wrote:

For the record, I store the test results in my own custom MySQL database, then use a graphing library (Highcharts) to graph the data. This allows me to create whatever reports I need. On Apr 16, 2016 7:29 PM, "Mark Bonassera" [email protected] wrote:

@slash-zero What was it about the metrics that was limited? I've read this before.
I hear you about creating a custom solution, this is often where things naturally end up, but I suspect there's a lot of people that would benefit from a quick and easy solution for real time graphs without the need for developing anything. But before diving in I wanted to get feedback from others that have been there.
Sorry was not checking my emails. Yes it worked. But as someone already said the metrics are limited from backend listener

@slash-zero I am interested in knowing what you built as a custom solution..
