<h1>Version 2.4
<h2>Summary of main changes
<p>
<ul>
<li>JMeter now requires at least Java 1.5.
<li>HTTP Proxy can now record HTTPS sessions.
<li>JUnit sampler now supports JUnit4 annotations.
<li>Added JSR223 (javax.script) test elements.
<li>MailReader Sampler can now use any protocol supported by the underlying implementation.
<li>An SMTP Sampler has been added.
<li>JMeter now allows users to provide their own Thread Group implementations.
<li>View Results Tree now supports more display options, including search and Regex Testing.
<li>StatCalculator performance is much improved; Aggregate Report etc. need far less memory.
<li>
JMS samplers have been extensively reworked, and should no longer lose messages.
Correlation processing is improved.
JMS Publisher and Subscriber now support both Topics and Queues.
</li>
<li>Many other improvements have been made, please see below and in the manual.
</ul>
</p>
<!-- ========================= End of summary ===================================== -->
<h2>Known bugs
<p>
The Include Controller has some problems in non-GUI mode.
In particular, it can cause a NullPointerException if there are two include controllers with the same name.
</p>
<p>Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller,
but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p>
<p>
The menu item Options / Choose Language does not change all the displayed text to the new language.
[The behaviour has improved, but language change is still not fully working]
To override the default local language fully, set the JMeter property "language" before starting JMeter.
</p>
<h2>Incompatible changes
<p>
HTTP Redirect now defaults to "Follow Redirects" rather than "Redirect Automatically".
This is to enable JMeter to track cookies that may be sent during redirects.
This does not affect existing test plans; it only affects the default for new HTTP Samplers.
</p>
<p>
The Avalon file format for JMX and JTL files is no longer supported.
Any such files will need to be converted by reading them in JMeter 2.3.4 and resaving them.
</p>
<p>
The XPath Assertion and XPath Extractor elements no longer fetch external DTDs by default; this can be changed in the GUI.
</p>
<p>
JMSConfigGui has been renamed as JMSSamplerGui.
This does not affect existing test plans.
</p>
<p>
The constructor public SampleResult(SampleResult res) has been changed to become a true "copy constructor".
It no longer calls addSubResult(). This may possibly affect some 3rd party add-ons.
</p>
