What you'll learn

Performance issues are costly and often preventable, yet many Java applications go live without adequate load testing. In this course, Java SE in Practice: Performance with JMeter, you'll learn to design comprehensive performance tests and optimize Java applications for high concurrency. First, you'll explore how to build JMeter test plans that simulate production load patterns and extract meaningful performance metrics. Next, you'll discover how to establish performance baselines and interpret key metrics like throughput, response times, and percentiles to identify bottlenecks. Finally, you'll learn how to apply targeted optimization strategies and integrate automated performance testing into CI/CD pipelines. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of performance testing with JMeter needed to ensure your Java applications can scale reliably under real-world load.
