A JMeter Thread Group represents a load test case which runs a sequence of test steps in multiple threads (also called users) repeatedly.

A JMeter Test Plan has the following main attributes:

  • Name - Name for this Thread Group.
  • Comments - Comments about this Thread Group.
  • Number of Threads (users) - How many concurrent threads that runs the same sequence of test steps.
  • Loop Count - Number of time to re-run the same sequence of test steps in each threads.
  • Ramp-up Period - Number of seconds to control how fast users are loaded to the test.
