About JChav

JChav is a way to see the change in performance of your web application over time, by running a benchmark test for each build you produce.

How does it work?

• You build and deploy your application.
• You write a JMeter test plan to exercise your application.
• From Ant, you run the JMeter test plan and log the results, using the Ant JMeter task.
• JChav reads all the JMeter logs from each of your runs (one per build), and produces a set of charts for each test in each run.
• Each time you deploy, re-run the JMeter tests and the JChav tool to update the charts to show the change in performance.

By running this often you can see the effect of code change on your application performance.
