How to split a String in Beanshell in Jmeter - jmeter

Question

I'm beginner in Jmeter. I need to split a string in Beanshell Postprocessor. My String contains :
[{name=Rose, id=2, Job=manag, AGE=45}, {name=Mary, id=3, Job=eng, AGE=67},
{name=Terese, id=4, Job=exe, AGE=20}, {name=George, id=5, Job=eng, AGE=50},
{name=Mathew, id=6, Job=cwit, AGE=30}, {name=jiss, id=7, Job=bd, AGE=49},
{name=Rose, id=8, Job=exe, AGE=36}]
How can I split each value in beanshell like:
- [Rose,2,manag,45]
- [Mary, 3, eng, 67] etc.

Answer 1

First of all, I doubt you should be using Beanshell at all, since JMeter 3.1 it's recommended to go for JSR223 Test Elements and Groovy language for scripting
Are you sure that the string is exactly in that format? I'm asking because it's looks like to be a JSON and if this is the case you're getting response which looks like:
[
{
"name": "Rose",
"id": 2,
"Job": "manag",
"AGE": 45
},
{
"name": "Mary",
"id": 3,
"Job": "eng",
"AGE": 67
},
{
"name": "Terese",
"id": 4,
"Job": "exe",
"AGE": 20
},
{
"name": "George",
"id": 5,
"Job": "eng",
"AGE": 50
},
{
"name": "Mathew",
"id": 6,
"Job": "cwit",
"AGE": 30
},
{
"name": "jiss",
"id": 7,
"Job": "bd",
"AGE": 49
},
{
"name": "Rose",
"id": 8,
"Job": "exe",
"AGE": 36
}
]
You can use JSR223 PostProcessor and the following Groovy code:
new groovy.json.JsonSlurper().parse(prev.getResponseData()).each { entry ->
log.info(entry as String)
}
