# Running test listener with JMeter

In order to capture code coverage information from tests run with JMeter, you need to run it with our test listener as a Java agent.

The listener needs to be placed alongside the JMeter installation and added to the JVM\_ARG parameter using the `-javaagent` parameter together with its required parameters.
