In the web app I am testing, a unique authorization code is generated at runtime and submitted with each http request during that [web browser] session. Jmeter script recorder stores the hardcoded value, which again is only valid during that session.
I can use the Regular Expression Extractor to capture the authorization code, which is generated on the 10th http request in the test plan. I need to tell JMETER to use this new authorization code in all subsequent http requests in the test. I can manually replace all subsequent occurrences of the code with the new value extracted, but this would mean hundreds of manual changes.
Is there any way to tell JMETER that from a given point going forward, ignore the hardcoded value and use the value extracted during the 10th call. This is important because each test plan has hundreds of calls and there will be multiple test plans for the web site.

Don't use hard-coded value as in runtime it will be quite hard to replace it. Use a JMeter Variable instead. Something like ${AUTH_CODE} wherever it is required.
Make sure that you use the same Reference Name AUTH_CODE in your Regular Expression Extractor at 10th request of your test plan.
If your Test Plan contains multiple thread groups use JMeter Property instead. See How to Use Variables in Different Thread Groups for step-by-step implementation guide

So here is my case, I am trying to implement concurrency test using jMeter with over 100 users. I got the foundation set up. However, the challenge I am encountering is that I have two APIs on postman one which I need to get accident case as UIID that is the first API and the second API is an API in which I register the accident. Each accident api requires different accident case. In other words, all 100 users will have different accident case. I usually do that manually when manual test but how do I do that automated in jMeter
enter image description here
Thank you and best regards
You can use __UUID
"accidentCase": "${__UUID()}",
The UUID function returns a pseudo random type 4 Universally Unique IDentifier (UUID).
If you're getting an accident case in 1st request and need to use it in 2nd request you can extract it from the 1st request response using a suitable JMeter Post-Processor and save it into a JMeter Variable
Then in 2nd request you need to replace the 21d2a592-f883-45f7-a1c4-9f55413f01b9 with the JMeter Variable holding the UUID from the first request.
The process is known as correlation and there is a lot of information on it in the Internet.
I am getting a value returned by hitting a HTTP endpoint which I am storing in a column. Now a want to trigger another Http Endpoint with the value in the column. But the HTTP endpoint takes hardcoded values or macros only. So I want to know if I can set a run-time argrument based on the column value
Please suggest How I can do this.
There are few ways of setting runtime arguments:
Using Argument Setter Plugin - type of Action plugin that allows one to create reusable pipelines by dynamically substituting the configurations that can be served by an HTTP Server.
Specifying runtime arguments as a JSON map in the request body, when starting an program.
CDAP Preferences HTTP RESTful API.
I recommend you check the official documentation for Datafusion, where you can find a way of setting variables/macros using the GCS bucket.
Additionally, have a look at the following thread on SO. It describes the method with specifying runtime arguments as a JSON map in the request body.
I am performing load testing using jmeter. I created a test plan with https request and used regular expression extractor to extract variable returned from first https request.
Variable: csrftoken
Regular Expression: value="(.*)"
Template: $1$
Match Number: 1
Default Value: EMPTY
2.Used JSR223 Postprocessor and verified that the extracted variable are correct.
log.info("***************************"+vars.get("csrftoken"));
I Created new test plan for signin request were I'm using the variable which was extracted in first test plan and defining the variable in parameters as
csrfmiddlewaretoken : ${csrftoken}
email : xxxxxxxx#gmail.com
password : Password
But ${csrftoken} variable are not getting picked up when I run the request.
Is there any other possible way to make use of variable from one test plan to other test plan and run the request with the same variable.
Help would be really appreciated!!
Thanks in advance.
What do you mean by "test plan", if you referring to this Test Plan and want to pass the value between 2 separate .jmx test scripts - the only way to do it is to write the CSRF token(s) into a file using i.e. Flexible File Writer in one test plan and read it back using CSV Data Set Config in another test plan
As per JMeter Documentation on variables, Variables are local to a thread to you cannot access a JMeter Variable anywhere but within the bounds of single thread (virtual user) context, you cannot even access it in the different Thread Group, not talking about different test plans.
I am working to set up a HTTP Endpoint in JitterBit, for this end point we have a system that will call this Endpoint and pass parameters through the URL to it.
example...
http://[server]:[server port]/EndPoint?Id={SalesForecID}&Status={updated status in SF}
Would i need to use the Text File, JSON or XML Method for this? Follow up question would be if it is JSON or XML what would the file look like that is uploaded during creating the endpoint. I have tired with no success with the text file version.
any help would be great.
I'm just seeing your question now. You may have found a solution, but this took me a while to figure out, so I'll respond anyway.
To get the passed values, go ahead and create your HTTP Endpoint and add a new operation triggered by it. Then, in your new operation create a script with something like the following:
$SalesForceID = $jitterbit.networking.http.query.Id
$UpdatedStatus = $jitterbit.networking.http.query.Status
You can then use these variables elsewhere in your operation chain.
If you want to use these values to feed into another RESTful web service (i.e. an HTTP Source), you'll have to create a separate transformation operation with the HTTP Source. You'd set that source URL to be: http://mysfapp.com/call?Id=[SalesForceID]&Status=[UpdatedStatus]. I'm not sure why, but you can't have the script that extracts the parameters from the Endpoint and the HTTP Source that uses those in the same operation.
Cheers
I am testing web service using Jmeter, web service has several methods which takes some parameters. What I need to do is to pass different parameters every time user (thread) "calls" web service method.
I know, that I can do something like that, if I write Soap Messages in xml files and then to "give" Jmeter path of folder including this xml files, but Jmeter will take randomly those files and there is probability to use the same file twice or more. But I want Jmeter to use every request time different unique Soap Message.
Can Anyone help me?
Use CSV Data Set Config, prepare csv file containing your parameters.
Set CSV config recycle on EOF to false.
Set CSV config stop thread on EOF to true.
Set CSV config Sharing mode to all threads.
