<blockquote>
<p>In this section, you will learn how to create a basic Test Plan to test an LDAP server.
You will create four users that send requests for four tests on the LDAP server. Also, you will tell
the users to run their tests 4 times. So,  the total number of requests is (4 users) x (4 requests) x
repeat 4 times) = 40 LDAP requests. To construct the Test Plan, you will use the following elements:
<a href="test_plan.html#thread_group">Thread Group</a>,
<a href="../usermanual/component_reference.html#LDAP_Request">LDAP Request</a>,
<a href="../usermanual/component_reference.html#LDAP_Request_Defaults">LDAP Request Defaults</a>, and
<a href="../usermanual/component_reference.html#View_Results_in_Table">View Results in Table</a>
.</p><p>This example assumes that the LDAP Server is available at ldap.test.com.</p></blockquote>

<p>The first step you want to do with every JMeter Test Plan is to add a Thread Group element.
The Thread Group tells JMeter the number of users you want to simulate, how often the users should send
requests, and the how many requests  they should send.</p><p>Go ahead and add the ThreadGroup element by first selecting the Test Plan, clicking your
right mouse button to get the  <span class="menuchoice">
 <span class="guimenuitem">Add</span>  </span>
 menu, and then select
 <span class="menuchoice">
 <span class="guimenuitem">Add</span>&nbsp;&rarr;&nbsp;<span class="guimenuitem">ThreadGroup</span>  </span>
. You should now see the
Thread Group element under Test Plan. If you do not see the element, then &quot;expand&quot; the Test Plan tree by
clicking on the Test Plan element.
