'How integrate Selenium code in JMeter How this is achieve

I create a maven project using selenium web driver in eclipse to automate one web-based application. Here I also used TestNG and the programming language Java. Now I want to integrate this selenium project into JMeter and want to do performance testing so how can I achieve this?

Although it's possible to kick off a TestNG test programmatically from JMeter's JSR223 Sampler using the code like:

TestListenerAdapter tla = new TestListenerAdapter()
TestNG testng = new TestNG()
testng.setTestClasses(new Class[] { YourClassWithTests.class  })
testng.addListener(tla)
testng.run()

I don't think you will get the results you're looking for.

The main limitations are:

  1. In general it's not advised to use Selenium for performance testing
  2. You won't get metrics and KPIs like number of concurrent users, connect time, response time, etc.
  3. Test will be very resource intensive as one instance of browser requires 1 CPU core and a couple of gigabytes of RAM so the resource footprint will be immense.

So I would recommend converting your Selenium tests to "pure" JMeter, you can kick off JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and configure your Selenium tests to use JMeter as the proxy, this way JMeter will be able to intercept the relevant HTTP requests and create HTTP Request samplers which are lightweight comparing to the real browsers and this way you will get all the metrics.
