I recorded .jmx script by recording Blazemeter tool.
I followed below steps:
Login into application.
By default user landed on page which is Search Page where Patient list is displayed.
Now I select Patient and Navigate to Flowsheet page by clicking on HD Flowsheet menu button. Patient selection is mandatory.
Saved Flowsheet.
Logged Out.
Thread Group Detail:
Action to be taken after a Sample error: Continue
Number of Threads(users): 10
Ramp-up period (seconds): 100
Loop Count: 1
Same User on each Iteration : Yes
After executing script with above Thread group, In database only 6 Flowsheet is getting inserted instead of 10 flowsheet.
I checked View Result Tree, It is showing no error and also in Summary report it is showing 0% error.
What can be root cause? What strategy I should follow in such cases to debug script?
JMeter automatically treats HTTP response status codes below 400 as successful, it won't do any extra checks for the "flowshit" creation or insertion simply because it doesn't know anything about it.
My expectation is that your test silently fails somewhere, add View Results Tree listener and inspect response details for each step, most probably you will see that either you're submitting the same flowsheet over and over again or your script got stuck somewhere.
If you want to add an extra layer of verification, i.e. ensure that response contains specific value, you can add a Response Assertion to each request and specify pass/fail criteria there
In general when it comes to modern web applications the chance you will be able to successfully replay recorded script is close to zero because there are multiple dynamic parameters involved like ID of the patient or flowsheet, cookies, tokens, etc. and these dynamic values need to be correlated

I have recorded the below scenario and recorded the script from blaze meter, Canceling NLI is recorded but while running the script NLI canceling not working due to that particular sampler is failing
Logged into an app
navigated to the "XXXX" Tab and hit "XXXX" page
Searched records by giving From date and to date
hit Search button
presented with 1 record with unique ATI number
submitted NLI
Canceled NLI (because next user need to NLI the same ATI number)
logged out from application
please advise on how to cancel particular activity to pass the sampler, is there any code we need to write in jmeter? please help me
There are at least 2 options:
"Action to be taken after a Sampler error" setting on Thread Group level:
where you have the choice to start next loop, stop the thread or stop the test
Using the If Controller, given the below configuration:
Sampler B will only be executed if Sampler A is successful
I am trying to record Https request.
When i record under HTTP(s) Test Script Recorder it records and i can see Request/response under View Results tree without errors.
When i try to do record same scenario but under Thread Group , it gives me error (Error is thrown by the application).
Application Error - An error was encountered There was an error on the page. Click "Go Back" to go to previous page or click "Home" to go to homepage.
Structure is : Test Plan -> Thread Group -> Recording Controller
In my application while recording it starts with Login Page(SSO Login page) -> Home Page -> Search Page -> On this page i search something and want to capture its response time taken for search.
I think problem is ViewState and EventValidation not getting passed ? Is their a way i can pass it to the page ?
It seems problem with the correlation. You need to find the dynamic parameters like ViewState and event validation.
Record to scripts and compare them to check the dynamic parameter with any sniffing tool like fiddler. If you already aware then ignore this step.
Usually, you get the required parameter before the final call is made. So, you need to find the occurrence where you are getting the required parameters in response and capture using PostProcessor.
Then, pass the captured parameters in the required request.
EX;-Below is for more clarification. Follow same for all dynamic parameters.
TestPlan
--Request1-->PostProcessor(Like RegEx or any other) to capture viewState
--Request2--Pass the captured viewState value to this request.
I am trying to do a load testing,but facing some issues.
The basic concept in the web app is that the users gives a request for which response links should be generated.(just like google search where we enter a request and click submit and on the next page we get response(website links ).
following are the steps
Initial page of the the browser has a text area where users enter the request in a text area and clicks on submit
The response links will be given in the next page. it takes at least 30 sec to pick the respective links .
The url in the second page is a dynamic url.
i have recorded the process using blazemter and obtained the jmx .
On using the jmx file in jmeter to test for 100 users,it is taking the same url(second page url) that was recorded by blazemeter
for all the 100 users hence we are getting the response links on millisec for all the 100 users.
how can i ensure that for 100 users 100 dyanamic url will be used?
You need to add as a child of the first request a CSS/JQuery extractor that will extract a random link and use it in the following HTTP Request that simulates the click.
This extractor uses this syntax for extraction:
https://jsoup.org/cookbook/extracting-data/selector-syntax
And you need to use 0 as number to ensure randomness.
If you export the recording in SmartJMX mode the relevant Regular Expression Extractors Post-Processors will be added to your script in order to handle dynamic parameters (if any) so each JMeter thread (virtual user) will get its own dynamic URL.
I would recommend running your test with 2-3 users first and having View Results Tree listener enabled so you could inspect request and response details and ensure that your test is doing what it is supposed to be doing prior to simulating large loads.

Currently I am setting up performance tests with visual studio. I have a data set containing 30 rows.
My test scenario is intended to be as follows:
User logs in
Visits 30 URLs defined in my data set
User logs out
With the default functionality, the scenario does:
User logs in
Visits URL 1 defined in my data set
User logs out
User logs in
Visits URL 2 defined in my data set
User logs out etc.
This happens 30 times in total.
Is there a way to only repeat the step where the data rows are referred to?
Thanks!
There are at least two approaches.
First approach. Have three tests. One for logging in and a second for logging out. The third test has the main activity which is to visit one URL and it will be data driven. In the load test specify the load test mix to have the login and logout tests as the initialisation and termination tests, the main test will be added to the test mix. Set the "percentage of new users" in the scenario properties to be 0%.
Second approach. Have just one test with the login and logout at the start and finish of this test. Between them have a loop that visits the URLs specified in the data source. Set the "advance data cursors" property of the loop to true.
I am new to JMeter. I have taken up HP webtour(127.0.0.1/WebTours) for practicing.
I recorded a scenario for flight booking. I correlated the session ids and found the script was working fine( i was able to see correct HTML pages in View Result Tree).
So, ideally if i run the script a flight should be booked and when i check the application manually i should see a flight but this isn't happening. I run the script,it goes fine but i dont see a flight booked. I have tried to correlate dynamic values and don't see any pending value which isn't been handled.
Any idea on this.
Make sure that you double check the post request were the flight is booked. Because JMeter will put a green if it gets a response with status 200, but it is our responsibly to make sure that we have got the appropriate page. 'Response Assertion' can help you in doing it.
