How to send zipped json inputs in JMeter POST request? - jmeter

I have a xyz.zip file and it contains multiple json files. I have to send this zip file in Jmeter post request and read all the json files.
Please let me know any solution.
Thanks in advance!

Just like any other file, using HTTP Request sampler
Tick "Use multipart/form-data" box
Provide full or relative path to your .zip file and use correct "Parameter Name" matching the name of the relevant <input type="file"> element at the page

Your syntax is incorrect, the valid one for the __FileToString() function would be:
${__FileToString(${JSON_FILE},,)}
Consider using Functions Helper Dialog if you're uncertain
Your setup doesn't really "upload" the file, it sends the file as the HTTP POST body, the "upload" assumes either PUT or POST with multipart-form/data. Again if you're not sure that you're building the request correctly just record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, just make sure that the file(s) you're uploading are present in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation

How can i use the Result of an HTTP request (zip file) in the body of another http request?

I have two HTTP requests (Export and Import).
The result of the "Export" request is a zip file and i want to use that downloaded file in the body of the "Import" request.
Does anyone have an idea ?
Thanks in advance.
Normally you should be storing the file to your drive via Save Responses to a file listener added as a child of the Export request and then specifying the path to the stored file in the "Files Upload" section of the HTTP Request sampler for the Import request
Example test plan structure:

However if your scenario is different and you need to do this in memory, you can read the zip file contents into a JMeter Variable using Regular Expression Extractor and the following regular expression:
(?s)(^.*)
once done you will be able to use the associated JMeter Variable where required.

JMeter save response to file with custom extension

I try to save response of a HTTP Request with custom file extension. ContentType is application/octet-stream and saved file ends with _1.octet-stream by default. I use Save Responses to a file listener to save file.
Add Save responses to a file listener as a child of the request which output you would like to save
Configure it like:
Replace myfile.txt with your desired filename/extension
That's it, assuming the above configuration JMeter will store the file under the given name

JMeter zip file download from server

I have a requirement to download zip file from server through JMeter to test the peroformance but for me the downloaded files are shown in x-filler, i need to have the zip file downladed.
Please help me here
Thanks in Advance
Simulating file download event using JMeter is as simple as sending HTTP GET request using HTTP Request sampler.
If you need to save the response somewhere for later reuse or analysis add Save Response to a file listener as a child of the request which performs the download. Check out Performance Testing: Upload and Download Scenarios with Apache JMeter article for comprehensive explanation.
Be aware that storing responses will cause huge disk IO overhead during the load test so I would recommend ticking Save response as MD5 hash box under "Advanced" tab of the HTTP Request sampler and use MD5Hex Assertion to compare the MD5 checksum of the response with some reference value.
To download any file, you need to extract it using Regular Expression Extractor.
Add the Regular Express Extractor to the request where you want to download and configure the fields as shown below. Use (?s)(^.*) as the expression to extract everything.
Add the Save Responses to a File sampler and configure the fields as shown below.
Execute the test plan. In the JMETER_HOME\bin\, you can see the zip file. Extract the zip file and validate.
The easiest way is to use your own code to download the file. The options are BeanShell Postprocessor or JSR223 Postprocesor.
I extracted file name from response header Content-Disposition, save it to varible, and the use variable for filename. Additional variable was defined on Test level, holding folder name where to save files.

How do I test a web application's file upload function using jMeter?

My web application has a function to upload files to the server. How do I test the performance of this using jMeter?
You need to use POST method of HTTP Request Sampler with "Use multipart/form-data" box checked and providing following options:
Full path to file for upload
Valid Parameter Name (see relevant <input type="file"> value in page code or record your upload via HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Specify correct MIME Type
See Upload and Download Scenarios with Apache JMeter guide for more details.
