Need help in running the Gatling Maven plugin

Gatling (Open-Source)
1

Hi All,

I am new to Gatling, and want to integrate it to Jenkins to do performance testing for our project. Just started with running the “gatling-maven-plugin-demo-master” sample. I am facing some issues while running it. These are the steps i did,

  1. Created a Maven project in Jenkins and placed the folder “gatling-maven-plugin-demo-master” in the workspace of the project

  2. In post-build actions, enabled Gatling load simulation tracking

  3. When i build the project, this is the error i get towards the end

I am not understanding what is happening over here. I have given proper values for Gatling configurations in the pom file. But it is not even executing the scala which has the recorded scenario.

Can somebody help me to find what is missing here ?

Don’t run Gatling with a path that contains spaces, such as Program Files.

Thanks Stephane. It worked :slight_smile: I changed the workspace to a different location which doesnt have space in path.
But, is it not a supported scenario? Is there any workaround? Because eventually our projects will be in Release Engineering machines, and there is no guarantee of having a path without space.

Well, contributions welcome.
Paths with spaces are a typical bad habit of Windows people, and we lack Windows skills, for example in bat files.
