Introducing BreakTest

The modern, JMeter‑compatible performance testing tool.

BreakTest takes everything engineers know from JMeter and moves it forward: actively developed, faster, lighter, HTTP/2-first, and AI Repair enabled. Run it free on your machine — then scale tests across your own infrastructure with BreakTest Enterprise.

Your JMeter JMX files still work. Based on JMeter 5.6.3, modernized for Java 21+.

Two products, one workflow

Start free. Scale on your terms.

BreakTest is the free tool you run locally. BreakTest Enterprise is the paid, on-prem platform that runs those same scripts at scale — with realtime graphs, AI analysis, and your data staying in your environment.

  • CI/CD API · on-prem, no forced SaaS

The tool · BreakTest

JMeter, brought into 2026.

JMeter has been stable for years. BreakTest picks up the workflow you already know and modernizes the engine underneath it — so your scripts run faster, lighter, and on current protocols.

  • HTTP/2-first on a single modern HTTP client
  • Lower CPU & memory — fewer machines at scale
  • Parallel & Fork controllers for realistic browser behavior
  • Richer View Results Tree with TLS, cookies, jump-to-source
  • AI Repair can run a full script repair or follow targeted instructions
  • Java 21+ & virtual threads, legacy paths removed
