This plugin enables you to run performancetests, check performance and generate reports within the Maven 2 environment.
Currently it is possible to use jmeter to perform the tests. Later extension will probably allow other performancetesting tools to be supported.
The reports generated by this plugin is the result of executing the performancetest with jmeter and parsing the generated jtl file and (optionally) garbage collection logfile enabling you to determine whether performance goals have been met.
