It is good to see the second edition of this book out. There are some improvements and additions, but probably what I wrote about the first edition still makes sense:It is very surprising that actually no decent books about load testing tools were published for 20+ years of their history. So it is nice to see Performance Testing With JMeter by Bayo Erinle published by Packt Publishing.It is, of course, a rather basic book. I don't think that it would be very useful to experienced JMeter users. However, it may be very good for somebody who is doing their first steps in performance testing and need step-by-step tutorial to introduce them into the topic. Perhaps users of other load testing tools may benefit from the book if they want a quick introduction into JMeter (and don't want spent time figuring out what is what in documentation). The book does exactly what the title says: explains one way of how basic performance testing may be done with JMeter 2.9. It doesn't deviate much into available options (which exist in abundance), doesn't talk much about generic principles of performance testing or performance engineering. However, if complemented by more generic performance engineering books, it may be a good starting point for a journey into performance testing (especially considering that no other alternatives worth mentioning available except tool-related documentations and articles).
