• Taurus, an open source test automation tool that extends and abstracts JMeter.
• Using Taurus we can create easy readable script for JMeter test plan.
• Platform-independency - runs where Python and Java can run
• Console stats and pseudo-graphic charts during the test execution
• Real-time reporting
