Incident Report

There is an issue with the Certificate of the JMeter Plugins Repository that is causing some tests to fail to start. The team is currently working on implementing a fix for the issue and we will provide updates as we receive them. In the meantime, there is a workaround that can be used to point affected tests at the fallback repository. The following can be implemented in any affected tests: JMeter (add the following in jmeter.properties or user.properties files): # BlazeMeter JMeter Plugins Mirror jpgc.repo.sendstats=False jpgc.repo.address=https://jmeter-plugins-fallback.blazemeter.com/jmeter-plugins.json Taurus (add the following to YAML file): modules: jmeter: properties: jpgc.repo.sendstats: false jpgc.repo.address: https://jmeter-plugins-fallback.blazemeter.com/jmeter-plugins.json
