How Feather Wand Works
Feather Wand is a full AI agent inside Apache JMeter. Chat with 9 LLM providers, run embedded AI CLI terminals, or enable Agent Mode: the AI reads your test plan, adds and configures elements, auto-correlates dynamic values, and runs the test, verifying every change as it goes.
