Jmeter Response Assertion is failing upon getting from Reg Ex Value - jmeter

Hello I have a scenario where I need to validate the extracted value from my regex, unfortunately I'm encountering an error upon using Response Assertion. I would like to seek assistance to any one of you. Your response is highly appreciated. Thank you so much in advance
I am able to extract my regex upon running, but I encounter upon using that on my Response Assertion.

Response Assertion Configuration
Expected Result: I just want to validate "userId = 14534"

If you want to just check the presence of 14534 text in the response - just configure the Response Assertion as follows:
In case you want to check whether 1st row of the user_id column of your SQL query result set is equal to 14534:
In the JDBC Request sampler define a variable name, i.e. user_id
Amend your Response Assertion configuration to Apply to a JMeter Variable called user_id_1:

Extracting POST response data returns NOT_FOUND

I was hoping someone may be able to help with the following issue I have.
I have a 'HTTP Request' sampler that makes a POST request. The response data for this request as per the results tree is:
<script>window.document.location.href='handler.ashx?act=wzfin\x26req=nav\x26mop=requirements!new_finish_wiz\x26pk=0c86ea74-c067-4bcf-a49d-be7d0e420fbf';</script>
I want to grab the value for the pk parameter in the response URL above and store in a variable called REQUIREMENT_ID. I have set up a 'Regular Expression Extractor' for the sampler and set it up as per below:
Apply to: Main Sample Only
Field to Check: Response message
Reference Name: REQUIREMENT_ID
Regular Expression: (?<=pk=)(.*)(?=\')
Template: $1$
Match No: 1
Default Value: NOT_FOUND
However, when I run this, NOT_FOUND is being returned. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
`Regular Expression Extractor screenshot
Change your regular expression to this <script>.+pk=(.*?)'
And change your field to check to Body
Try this: ".pk=(.?)'"
Not to sure why you way doesn't work to be honest.

Manipulating the request body of HTTP thread based on the data extracted from the previous HTTP response

I want to manipulate the request body of HTTP thread based on the data extracted (using 'Regular Expression Extractor') from the previous HTTP response.
Here is the scenario:-
I have extracted the statusFlag and statusId from 'HTTP request 1' as:
Ref name: status
Reg. Exp: "statusFlag":"(\w+)","statusId":"(\w+)"
So, first I want to check that the value of statusFlag is 'New' or not.
If it is New then I have to proceed and feed statusId in next HTTP request or else display statusFlag mismatch.
Need help. Got stuck badly.
I believe Response Assertion is what you're looking for. Add it after the Regular Expression Extractor and configure it as follows:
Apply to: JMeter Variable -> statusFlag (or your reference name)
Pattern Matching Rules: Equals
Add New as a "Pattern to Test"
The assertion will check whether "statusFlag" is "New" and if not - it will fail the sampler and report the expected and the actual value.
Optionally you can add If Controller after the Response Assertion, use ${JMeterThread.last_sample_ok} as a condition and place 2nd request as a child of the If Controller - it will be executed only if "statusFlag" is new.
See How to Use JMeter Assertions in Three Easy Steps guide for more information on conditionally setting pass or fail criteria to requests in your JMeter test.
That's how your Jmeter project should look like.
Regular Expression Extractor stores extracted value in ct variable that can be accessed in If Controller as "${ct}" == "yourvalue" and, if true, can be also sent as a part of Request 2 body using the same ${ct} reference.

How to assert something using response assertion that has different text in Jmeter

I'm trying to make SOAP call in Jmeter and using Response assertion to validate the No Error in the response. It is failing all the time because each xml has different text b/w the tags.
I see my response is in different string like this No Error & No error.
Basically I want to assert that there are no errors by extracting No Error. Is there a way that I use some regular expression here regardless of what text is present in the response assertion?
Thanks
Do you mean case insensitive response assertion?
(?i) ignore case

Anyway to auto set jmeter assertions to initial responses?

I am building out a test suite in jmeter and want to set the assertions to the initial responses that I get from the api calls. Is there any way to do this besides copy pasta?
For clarity each individual call has its own assertion, which for the moment is the response it is receiving.
I want the assertions to be populated by the responses.
If I understood currectly - you are coming up with some JMeter-Baseline script - you also assume that the response you get now is correct - that is what you expect to get it in future as well , so you want to put the response data in the assertion.
If yes, JMeter will not remember the initial responses. So you need to create your script accordingly.
You can have a beanshell postprocessor to write the the responsedata in a CSV file. Later you modify the script to look for the assertion string from CSV file to compare. This is the statement to get the Response Data.
prev.getResponseDataAsString()
As per How to Use JMeter Assertions in 3 Easy Steps guide, JMeter Assertions have their scope.
If you put an assertion at the same level as all requests it'll apply to all of them. See image below for explanation:
I would use a CSV file with the URL and the assertion string you want to match.

Want to check for assertion failure in Jmeter

I am a beginner in JMeter. I want to check for Assertion Failures in my script. I want to continue my transaction for a number of iterations after a single log in attempt, and I want to log out only if an error occurs. For that, I want to check if an error occurred in the script.
Is it possible by comparing assertions in JMeter?
If not, is there are any other way to find that?
Define first indicator(s) that will mark response as erratic (Response Code, keyword, etc.).
Try to use Response Assertion to handle state of your request (success/failure) depending on indicators above and then use IfController along with pre-defined JMeterThread.last_sample_ok jmeter's variable - whether or not the last sample was OK - true/false.
Schema will look like below e.g.:
ThreadGroup
LOGIN REQUEST
...
YOUR HTTP REQUEST HERE
Response Assertion
Response Field to Test: Response Code
Pattern Matching Rules: NOT Equals
Patterns to Test: 200
Regex Extractor
IfController
Condition: ${JMeterThread.last_sample_ok} // will be TRUE if Response Assertion above is TRUE (i.e. response code != 200)
LOGOUT REQUEST
...
In addition to the answer above I would recommend you:
Add error checking to your script - assertions that the responses are
valid for a given reques
Use Firebug to view network traffic when you need to debug your test
script
Use a regular expression extractor to retrieve a dynamic value from a
response and re-use it in a later request
To get the idea you can follow JMeter error checking video tutorial.
FYI: Assertion details provided.
Hope this helps.
