Apache JMeter is a matured performance and functional testing tool, which is widely adopted for system performance and functional testing.
It's an open source, Java application, with large community of maintainers.
JMeter can also be used to test separate system components as it supports multiple connection protocols and a large set of plugins.
Over the time, we have created multiple practical tutorials of how JMeter can be used for automated system and software testing.
This page contains a list of these tutorials.
