I am facing an issue while reading the data from CSV file to pass the values to the request. I have a csv with 3 columns userid, password and type.When the data is being passed for the username field, its taking the values of 3 columns instead of just the username
Jmeter version: 5.0
CSV file value:
Can you please help me if i am doing it wrong.
Double check the "Delimiter" in your CSV file because if it's different from the default comma , you will need to change it accordingly:
In order to be 100% sure in the test data integrity I would recommend opening it with a text editor like Notepad instead of Excel as JMeter treats CSV files as plain text and this is you should be also doing when validating your test data.
You may find Debug Sampler useful for visualising JMeter Variables which are generated by CSV Data Set Config, Post-Processors and some pre-defined variables.
Let me see the variable you insert into the Login request. Everything is find with your config. Maybe it about your CSV file. Please sure format of CSV file when you open with Notepad not Microsoft Word like this
userid,password,type
test#test.com,Test#123,Vehicle
test#test.com,Test#123,Vehicle
test#test.com,Test#123,Vehicle

With Jmeter, how can we create users using CSV file because at CSV it is picking first userid and if re-running the script it will say user already exist.
Please help me to create users.
If you need to create a new user every time you run the test it doesn't make sense to use CSV files and CSV Data Set Config, I would recommend using following JMeter Functions instead:
__time() - returns current timestamp in different formats
__Random() - returns a random number in given range
__randomString() - returns a random string from given characters
You can also use any of above functions as prefix or postfix for username from the CSV file - this way you will get new unique logins each time you will run your test
Abdul, you can concatenate random number using __Random function in the request where you are passing the userid [picked from the csv file] for creating the user.
For example: Your .csv file contains userid as:
ravi
abdul
Now, in the http request pass the userid picked from the csv file and concatenate __Random function
Example: ${userid}${__Random(1,100000,str_ran)}
Additionally, you can also get the list of userids created in the test run by writing a simple code in Beanshell Postprocessor that can create a separate .txt file with all the userids.
Let me know if you need any further information.
You can get more information on JMeter elements from the knowledge base
Let us consider we have an excel/csv containing multiple columns, column1 contains the website and the other columns contain the parameters, how to perform http GET login and map parameters of each site and get the result sheet in jmeter. Can someone help in solving this issue....
Thanks...
you can map columns of the csv file with CSV_Data_Set_Config
by setting variables names to : url,user,pwd.
after that you can use them on another components like this '${user}'
do http request HTTP_Request
and save the result with Save_Responses_to_a_file or to see them View_Results_Tree
I know using of data driven in jMeter by passing the values in parameters, but my concern is how to the data driven testing when the values are sending in request of a body. Any help will be appreciated
You can use CSV Data Set Config, Add > Config Element > CSV Data Set Config
In the CSV file you can set the value for the parameters.
example csv file
Provide csv file path in CSV Data Set Config
Imported CSV file will be the data to perform data driven testing for login page, where first row of the csv file is variable name and rest is test data.
Set the number of thread user under Thread Group same as number of rows present in the csv file.
Have you tried fill body like this?
MyVariable is user defined variable
I have this csv file that I would like to parse with Ruby. The file's data is a cluster with commas and new lines in the fields but Excel still reads it properly. If the file could be exported from excel using the unit and record separators as the delimiters for the columns and rows, I'd be golden.
Anybody know how to specify those characters in excel? Thanks!
Use Ruby CSV with this option:
:col_sep
The String placed between each field. This String will be transcoded
into the data’s Encoding before parsing.
See more here: http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.0.0/libdoc/csv/rdoc/CSV.html
I ended up having Google Sheets export the file as json. Steps I followed here There were 10,000 records and the browser tab crashed when it tried to do all of them. So I had to piece meal it. I'm sure there's a better way to do it.
CSV data config always reads from first row. I want to add column headers in the CSV file. Hence I want the CSV config to start reading from second row.
Below is the setting in Thread Group.
No.of threads = 1
Loop Count= 10 (depends on no.of rows in CSV file)
What version of JMeter are you using? It seems like leaving the Variable Names field empty will do the trick. More info here:
Versions of JMeter after 2.3.4 support CSV files which have a header
line defining the column names. To enable this, leave the "Variable
Names" field empty. The correct delimiter must be provided.
Leave the variable names empty like on an attached snapshot.
In csv file add header. Header values will act as variable names which could be used as parameters in requests.
~sample facility.csv file
facility1,name
GG1LMD,test1
Request
There is a field called "Ignore first line (only used if Variable Names is not empty)", set this to true.
