$Url = 'https://archive.apache.org/dist/jmeter/binaries/apache-jmeter-5.4.3.zip'
$ZipFile = 'C:\Users\snehal.khot\Documents\JmeterAndJenkins\Jmeter'+$(Split-Path -Path $Url -Leaf)
$Destination= 'C:\Users\snehal.khot\Documents\JmeterAndJenkins\jmeter'
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $Url -OutFile $ZipFile
$ExtractShell = New-Object -ComObject Shell.Application
$Files = $ExtractShell.Namespace($ZipFile).Items()`

I think you're looking for Invoke-WebRequest cmdlet

  • To download JMeter:

     Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://archive.apache.org/dist/jmeter/binaries/apache-jmeter-5.4.1.zip -OutFile c:\temp\jmeter.zip

  • To unpack JMeter you can use Expand-Archive:

     Expand-Archive -LiteralPath 'c:\temp\jmeter.zip' -DestinationPath c:\temp

  • To launch JMeter:

     C:\temp\apache-jmeter-5.4.1\bin\jmeter.bat

Remember that you will need to have Java SDK of version 8+ in order to be able to run JMeter
