JMeter Tutorial 05 - How to run JMeter test from Command Line

Learning:
GUI mode is not good for heavy load testing, since it consumes a lot of memory and resources. GUI mode of JMeter is designed for test recording, development and debugging purpose.
So, it is recommended to do the performance testing in non GUI mode(using command line) in JMeter.
You can use the below command in command prompt to run JMeter test in non GUI mode:
Command : jmeter -n -t [test JMX file] -l [test log file]
where:
-n : By this, JMeter identifies to run the test in non-gui mode
-t : Name of JMX file that contains Test script
-l : Name of JTL/CSV file where you want to capture the results
