<ul >
<li > <code > Start time</code> and <code > End date</code> of Thread Group have been removed, see <bugzilla > 61549</bugzilla> </li>
2017-10-24 04:21:48 +08:00
<li > In distributed testing, mode <code > Hold</code> has been removed. Use alternative and more efficient modes</li>
2017-11-25 20:15:11 +08:00
<li > For 3<sup > rd</sup> party plugins, the following method in <code > org.apache.jmeter.gui.tree.JMeterTreeNode</code> has been dropped for migration to Java 9 (<bugzilla > 61529</bugzilla> )
2017-10-24 04:21:48 +08:00
<source > public Enumeration< JMeterTreeNode> children()</source>
</li>
2017-11-25 20:15:11 +08:00
<li > <code > tearDown Thread Group</code> will now run on stop and shutdown of a test by default. If you don't want this behaviour,
2017-10-24 04:26:08 +08:00
uncheck <code > Run tearDown Thread Groups after shutdown of main threads</code> on <code > Test Plan</code> element, see <bugzilla > 61656</bugzilla> </li>
2017-11-09 03:46:35 +08:00
<li > Properties <code > sampleresult.getbytes.headers_size</code> and <code > sampleresult.getbytes.body_real_size</code> have been dropped, see <bugzilla > 61587</bugzilla> </li>
2017-12-10 01:36:56 +08:00
<li > JMeter will now save your test plan whenever you run it. This behaviour can be controlled by property <code > save_automatically_before_run</code> , see <bugzilla > 61731</bugzilla> </li>
2017-11-16 05:00:51 +08:00
<li > Workbench element has been dropped, you now directly add <code > Non Test Element</code> as children of Test Plan. When loading a Test Plan that contains the element
2017-11-25 20:15:11 +08:00
JMeter will move the <code > Mirror Server</code> , <code > Property Display</code> and HTTP(s) <code > Test Script Recorder</code> elements as direct children of Test Plan. For
2017-11-16 05:00:51 +08:00
any other element, it will create a <code > Test Fragment</code> element called <code > Workbench Test Fragment and move the elements in it</code> .</li>
2017-11-24 06:05:45 +08:00
<li > Following classes have been dropped (<code > org.apache.jmeter.functions.util.ArgumentEncoder</code> , <code > org.apache.jmeter.functions.util.ArgumentDecoder</code> ), see <pr > 335</pr> </li>
2017-11-29 05:06:45 +08:00
<li > In JMS Point-to-Point sampler, setting timeout to 0 will now mean infinite timeout while previously it would be switched to 2000 ms, see <bugzilla > 61829</bugzilla> </li>
2017-12-02 06:07:02 +08:00
<li > When Assertions are at different scopes, they are executed starting with the most OUTER one to the most INNER one. See <bugzilla > 61846</bugzilla> </li>
2018-01-06 17:47:30 +08:00
<li > JMeter now starts by default using English locale. This change is due to missing translations in many supported languages.
You can change locale by modifying in jmeter and jmeter.bat <code > JVM_ARGS</code> system property values.
We'd also be very grateful if you can contribute translations in supported languages.
</li>
2018-01-07 05:21:42 +08:00
<li > SwitchController now trims by default the content of switch to avoid issue related to unwanted spaces. See <bugzilla > 61771</bugzilla> </li>

You may encounter the following error:
<source > java.security.cert.CertificateException: Certificates does not conform to algorithm constraints</source>
2015-02-28 05:05:55 +08:00
if you run a HTTPS request on a web site with a SSL certificate (itself or one of SSL certificates in its chain of trust) with a signature
2017-09-17 17:32:02 +08:00
algorithm using MD2 (like <code > md2WithRSAEncryption</code> ) or with a SSL certificate with a size lower than 1024 bits.
2017-04-01 21:49:40 +08:00
This error is related to increased security in Java 8+.
2015-02-28 05:05:55 +08:00
<br > </br>
2016-10-30 19:19:00 +08:00
To allow you to perform your HTTPS request, you can downgrade the security of your Java installation by editing
2016-04-02 18:20:21 +08:00
the Java <code > jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms</code> property. Remove the MD2 value or the constraint on size, depending on your case.
2015-02-28 05:05:55 +08:00

This property is in this file:
