<section name="Requesting an enhancement"> | ||
<p> | ||
In most cases it is worth starting a discussion on the mailing list first. | ||
Bugzilla is good for tracking progress and supplying patches, but is unwieldy for longer discussions. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
If you have not already done so, you need to register an account first, using the "<code>New Account</code>" link at the top of the | ||
main Bugzilla page: <a href="https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/">https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/</a>. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
Make sure you read and understand the information on the account creation page before signing up. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
Once logged in, click "<code>File a bug</code>" and select JMeter from the list | ||
Please set the severity to "<code>enhancement</code>". | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
Please make sure that you describe the enhancement in sufficient detail. If necessary provide an example use-case. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
If you are providing a code patch, also provide a test case, and documentation on how to use the new feature (ideally as a documentation patch). | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
Please check if the same enhancement has already been requested previously. | ||
If you find a very similar request in the issues list, please refrain from adding "<em>I also need this</em>" comments to the issue. | ||
"<em>I also need this</em>" comments cause notifications, and the comment itself does not add much to the discussion. | ||
Instead, prefer adding reactions to the first comment of an existing issue, so the issues could be sorted (see | ||
<a href="https://github.com/apache/jmeter/issues?q=sort%3Areactions-%2B1-desc">Most voted issues</a>). | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
Please make sure that you describe the enhancement in sufficient detail. It might be a good idea to start with a use-case. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
There are several options to propose an enhancement request: | ||
<dl> | ||
<dt>GitHub issue</dt> | ||
<dd> | ||
<p> | ||
You could <a href="https://github.com/apache/jmeter/issues/new/choose">file an issue on GitHub</a> to start a discussion | ||
and gather opinions. GitHub issues allow | ||
<a href="https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax">basic formatting</a>, | ||

<a href="https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/working-with-advanced-formatting/autolinked-references-and-urls#issues-and-pull-requests">references to the other | ||
issues and the source code</a>. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
When you create an issue at GitHub, it suggests one of the templates (e.g. "<em>Bug report</em>", | ||
"<em>Feedback about the manual</em>", "<em>Feature Request</em>", "<em>Regression</em>"), and it guides which information is required for each case. | ||
You could read more on <a href="https://docs.github.com/en/issues/tracking-your-work-with-issues/creating-an-issue">creating issues</a> in | ||
GitHub documentation. | ||
</p> | ||
</dd> | ||
<dt>Mailing list discussion</dt> | ||
<dd> | ||
<p> | ||
If you are not sure if something is an enhancement, or if you are unsure regarding the possible solutions, | ||
it might be a good idea to start a discussion on <a href="https://jmeter.apache.org/mail2.html#JMeterDev">JMeter dev mailing list</a> | ||
</p> | ||
</dd> | ||
<dt>GitHub pull request</dt> | ||
<dd> | ||
<p> | ||
If you are positive regarding the solution, you could start a discussion by creating a | ||
<a href="https://github.com/apache/jmeter/pulls">pull request on GitHub</a>. | ||
Pull requests are not much different from issues, however, sometimes it is easier to discuss with code at hand. | ||
For instance, if you fix a typo or make other small fixes, there's no need to create "<em>issue and PR</em>" for each change. | ||
The following <a href="https://github.blog/2015-01-21-how-to-write-the-perfect-pull-request/">GitHub post</a> might be helpful | ||
for creating your perfect pull request. | ||
</p> | ||
<note> | ||
There's no guarantee that your contribution will be accepted, so it might be wise to discuss your suggestions | ||
before you invest significant efforts on implementing the changes. | ||
</note> | ||
<p> | ||
If you are providing a code patch, also provide a test case, and documentation on how to use the new feature (ideally as a documentation patch). | ||

First check that the issue has not already been reported on <a href="https://github.com/apache/jmeter/issues">GitHub issues</a> | ||

If reporting a bug, are you sure it really is a bug in JMeter, not just a misunderstanding of how JMeter works? | ||

<p> | ||
If you face a bug or regression, please create an <a href="https://github.com/apache/jmeter/issues">issue on GitHub</a>. | ||
In case you can't create an issue, you might send the bug report to <a href="https://jmeter.apache.org/mail2.html#JMeterDev">JMeter dev mailing list</a>. | ||
