Upgrade JMeter to 2.13, SolrJ to 5.2.1 and add documentation

[vthacker]

Is there an way to make Step 4 easier here? Like adding a target to build with dependencies?

I used this pom.xml on a new project and it works but not sure how to make it work here since this project is not dedicated to just jmeter:

So in the individual project I was able to replace step 4 with this line

mvn clean package;cp target/solr-load-test-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar ~/jmeter/apache-jmeter-2.13/lib/ext/
