<p>
Following improvements have been made since major changes introduced in JMeter 2.10 on HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder:
<ul>
<li>
Better detection of missing or invalid configuration of keytool utility
</li>
<li>
New system property keytool.directory (see system.properties) lets you configure directory containing keytool in case on non-standard installation
</li>
</ul>

<tr><td><font color="white" face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">JMS Publisher/Point to Point : Add ability to set typed values in JMS header properties</font></td></tr></table>
<p>
In the samplers JMS Publisher and JMS Point-to-Point, you can now set up the class of values for the JMS header properties. Previously only String was possible.

<p>
When testing client based certificate authentications you have now better control on certificate you use through a new field "Variable name holding certificate alias", this
field lets you select the certificate you want to send to server to authenticate. You can use a CSV Data Set as a holder for the variable value.

<p>
Starting from 2.11, Transaction Controller is configured by default to exclude processing time of pre/post processors as long as timers pause.

<ul>
<li>
The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller,
but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).
</li>
<li>
Listeners don't show iteration counts when a If Controller has a condition which is always false from the first iteration (see
<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52496">Bug 52496</a>
).
A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller.
For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample),
or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size).
</li>
<li>
The numbers that appear to the left of the green box are the number of active threads / total number of threads,
the total number of threads only applies to a locally run test, otherwise it will show 0 (see
<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55510">Bug 55510</a>
).
</li>
<li>
Note that there is a
<a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6396599 ">
bug in Java
</a>
on some Linux systems that manifests itself as the following error when running the test cases or JMeter itself:
<pre>
[java] WARNING: Couldn't flush user prefs:
java.util.prefs.BackingStoreException:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Not supported: indent-number
</pre>
This does not affect JMeter operation. This issue is fixed since Java 7b05.
</li>
<li>
With Java 1.6 and Gnome 3 on Linux systems, the JMeter menu may not work correctly (shift between mouse's click and the menu).
This is a known Java bug (see
<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54477 ">Bug 54477 </a>
).
A workaround is to use a Java 7 runtime (OpenJDK or Oracle JDK).
</li>
<li>
With Oracle Java 7 and Mac Book Pro Retina Display, the JMeter GUI may look blurry.
This is a known Java bug, see Bug
<a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8000629">
JDK-8000629
</a>
.
A workaround is to use a Java 7 update 40 runtime which fixes this issue.

<ul>
<li>
When creating a new Transaction Controller, property "Include duration of timer and pre-post processors in generated sample" will be unchecked starting from version 2.11
</li>
<li>
In Non GUI mode, since 2.11 summariser is enabled with a 30 seconds frequency
</li>
<li>
JMeter is more lenient with redirect handling and relaxes on RFC2616 by allowing relative locations. See property "jmeter.httpclient.strict_rfc2616" in jmeter.properties to change this behaviour, see
<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55717">Bug 55717</a>
</li>
<li>
When creating a new Response Assertion, property "Pattern Matching Rules" now defaults to Substring starting from version 2.11
