How to write xpath assertion for the xml in Jmeter - jmeter

I am using Jmeter to test the api transaction
Response:
<ProcessByAcctResult><Inquiry.IVR.OUT TraceId="1233"><ResponseCode>00</ResponseCode&gtgt;</Inquiry.IVR.OUT></ProcessByAcctResult>
My Response is given above..
I wanted to assert responseCode is 00 if not should make it fail on the performance test. How to write a xpath for this.. or else any other way also fine..
Currently i am storing the variable using Regex Extractor and REsponse Assertion to compare the value.. Any other better solution

What you provided is not a valid XML therefore you're only limited to Response Assertion configured like:
More information: Response Assertions in JMeter 3.2 - New and Improved
However if you're getting a real XML just not able to properly copy and paste it and your response actually looks like:
<ProcessByAcctResult>
<Inquiry.IVR.OUT TraceId="1233">
<ResponseCode>00</ResponseCode>
</Inquiry.IVR.OUT>
</ProcessByAcctResult>
Then you can use the following XPath Assertion configuration:

Response Assertion / Regex Extractor Not Working in JMeter

I'm trying to extract the CSRF token so I can log in, and be able to obtain cookies, but I'm not able to.
I'm able to get a 200 response code when accessing the URL that contains the CSRF token, and I'm able to see it on the browser and the console, but my response assertion is not able to assert anything regardless of me changing the apply to, field to test, and pattern matching rules sections. My regular expression extractor isn't able to get anything either. All the headers to get to the URL are there. Any suggestions?
Forgot to mention, I'm able to get it on one server that's exactly (or should be) exactly the same as this one...
EDIT:
I placed it under the HTTP Sampler that has that response, and here is an example of what I get for my response assertion. I've also added various images.
Unfortunately you didn't share your output, so I cannot tell for sure, but although it seems your RegEx is correct in both cases, it could be that it doesn't match due to some extra spacing.
It appears that you are expecting a valid JSON, so instead of RegEx you could use JSON Extractor and/or JSON Assertion, for which extra spacing will not matter.
Example: if Response Data is
{"token":"12345"}
I can specify JSON Extractor as
(most important line is JSON Path: $.token)
and the result will be variable token with value 12345.
Here's a good online JSON Path tester, which can help you to figure out the right JSON Path.
If your goal is to check presence of a JSON Object with name of token and an arbitrary value I would recommend going for JSON Assertion instead.
Add JSON Assertion as a child of the request you would like to assert.
Use the following JSON Path query:
$.token
JSON Assertion is available since JMeter 4.0
If you still want to go for the Response Assertion - configure it as follows:
Pattern Matching Rules: Contains
Patterns to Test: {"token":"(.+?)"}

jmeter prev.getResponseDataAsString getting wrong return

I have a looping process that will extract some values from a web service (working) and loop through to pull all the information for each value (working).
I need to capture the whole return into a variable so I can modify it and post it back up later.
Screenshot:
When the "Baseline for ..." get kicks in, I get the proper response
But the "Get response" BeanShell PreProcessor is picking up old responses
Screenshot:
Given where my "Get response" object is, I would assume the:
vars.put("ResponceData", prev.getResponseDataAsString());
...would grab the response from "Baseline for ${ID} of site ${callSite}". Please help!
You are using wrong test element. Beanshell PreProcessor is being executed before request therefore it acts properly and returns response from the previous request instead of current one. You need to change it to the Beanshell PostProcessor and your code will start working as you expect.
It is recommended to avoid scripting where possible, if you need to save response data into a JMeter Variable you can do it using i.e. Regular Expression Extractor. According How to Extract Data From Files With JMeter article the relevant configuration will be something like:
Reference Name: ResponceData
Regular Expression: (?s)(^.*)
Template: $1$
If you face a JMeter limitation which cannot be worked around without using scripting make sure you are using the most performing scripting language, since JMeter 3.1 it is recommended to use JSR223 Test Elements and Groovy language

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

Want to Extract value from DWR call in Jmeter

How Can i extract value from DWR call using RegEx in jmeter.
In My Script Request Body is something like :
POST data:
`callCount=1`
`page=/abc/xyz.action`
`httpSessionId=`
`scriptSessionId=87F34A5261EFBF481F6D421920EF99F9406`
`c0-scriptName=DWRPostHelper`
`c0-methodName=savePostAsDraft`
`c0-id=0`
`c0-param0=string:447`
`c0-param1=number:933`
`c0-param2=number:0`
`c0-param3=string:Post%20Jmeter`
`c0-param4=string:`
`c0-param5=string:1`
`c0-param6=number:1427199824585`
`batchId=4`
And Response data is as below :
`//#DWR-INSERT`
`//#DWR-REPLY`
`dwr.engine._remoteHandleCallback('4','0',["447","Auto-saved at 17:55"]);`
Need to Extract value 447 from above Response.
is it Possible Using RegEx ? or is there any other way to do the same?
'dwr\.engine\._remoteHandleCallback\('[0-9]','[0-9]',\["([0-9]+)",
This should do it, written from memory, you may need to tweak the syntax a bit. Use $1$ for the template.
Try the following:
dwr\.engine\._remoteHandleCallback\('4','0',\["(.+?)"
Make sure that you set $1$ as "Template"
You can test your regular expressions using View Results Tree listener as follows:
See How to debug your Apache JMeter script guide for more details on how to get to the bottom of failure or unexpected behavior while developing a JMeter Test

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.
