BlazeMeter setup involves creating a test, configuring it, and running the test. To create a test, sign in to BlazeMeter, click on ‘Create Test’, select ‘Performance’ and name your test. Configuration requires defining properties like load type (VUs or RPS), duration, ramp-up time, iterations, concurrency level, locations, etc. You can also add advanced settings like network emulation, APM integration, and failure criteria. Next, upload your JMeter script (.jmx file) or choose from predefined tests. For scripting, use Taurus as it simplifies writing and maintaining scripts. After configuration, save changes and run the test. Monitor results in real-time using interactive reports that provide KPIs like response times, hits per second, errors, throughput, etc. Post-test, analyze detailed reports for performance bottlenecks.
