Install JMeter on Ubuntu server

Installing JMeter on an Ubuntu server (which typically doesn’t have a GUI) is similar to installing it on a desktop version. However, since the server version lacks a GUI, you’ll primarily use JMeter in its non-GUI mode for running tests.

Here’s how to install JMeter on Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS:

Update the system:
Update your system’s package list and upgrade the existing packages.

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Install Java:
JMeter is a Java application, so you need to have Java installed. You can install the OpenJDK version using:

sudo apt install openjdk-11-jdk

After installation, you can verify the Java version using:

java -version

Download and Extract JMeter:
