For each sampler result I have a variable value which I want to show it in the summary report as a test result. How to write this value in the jtl file and show it in the summary report?
You can write the variable into a file using sample_variables property.
Add the next line to user.properties file:
sample_variables=foo
replace foo with your actual variable name
Restart JMeter to pick the property up
That's it, an extra column will be added to the .jtl results file holding the foo variable value for each SampleResult
With regards to displaying it in the summary report, this is not something you can do out of the box, however you can plot the variable value as a chart in the HTML Reporting Dashboard. If this is something you're interested in - add the next lines to user.properties file:
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_testGraph.classname=org.apache.jmeter.report.processor.graph.impl.CustomGraphConsumer
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_testGraph.title=Foo values
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_testGraph.property.set_Y_Axis=Foo values
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_testGraph.set_X_Axis=Over Time
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_testGraph.property.set_granularity=60000
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_testGraph.property.set_Sample_Variable_Name=foo
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_testGraph.property.set_Content_Message=Foo value :
again, replace foo with your actual JMeter Variable name

To achieve:- To send the below-mentioned string to a server every 10 secs.
Text to Send:- '''XXXXXXX,XXXXXXX,XXXXXXXX,${packettype},${msgid},${pcktsts},${__threadGroupName},TSXXTSXXXX,${gpsfix},31082022,${__groovy(new Date().format("HHmmss", TimeZone.getTimeZone('UTC')),)},${lat},${latdir},${long},${longdir},${speed},${head},${sat},${alt},${pdop},${hdop},${network},${ignsts},${mpsts},${mivolt},${ibvoltusg},${emsts},${tampalt},31,404,86,7b73,b74a,86,02a2,7b73,49,4d0a,7d0b,49,1948,7b73,59,Ffff,0000,100000,001,${frame},0.0,0.0,${ddist},()*${checksum}'''
Here in the above text, I want the variables to be replaced automatically on every request with the data pre-defined (against that particular variable) in a CSV file.
Note:- I want to send the above data/string through a TCP Sampler.
Suggestions are appreciated if someone could suggest a better way of achieving the same.
If you have a variable from the CSV file which contains references to other JMeter Variables or functions you need to wrap it into __eval() function
For example:
You have foo variable with the value of bar
You have entry in the CSV file which looks like ${foo}
You defined some-variable in the CSV Data Set Config which returns this ${foo} entry from the file
then:
${some-variable} will return ${foo}
and ${__eval(${some-variable})} will return bar

I am using JMeter's Function Helper Dialogue and i found below syntax -
Syntax - ${__Random(12,99,customer-id)}
Result - random values b/w 12 to 99 getting generated, which will get stored in variable "customer-id"
Now Problem is I have to generate value with prefix 'test' (say-test12) and store it in variable 'customer-id'
How to do that ?
I don't see why would you need this because JMeter Variables can be normally concatenated with plain text so if you need test12 just use test${customer-id} statement where required.
However if you really need to generate some static text followed by a random number you could go for __groovy() function configured like:
${__groovy('test' + org.apache.commons.lang3.RandomUtils.nextInt(12\,99),customer-id)}

Apache Groovy - Why and How You Should Use It
During my JMeter test I am extracting a float value from the response message an saving it to a variable using Regular Expression Extractor, and I am also saving that value in the generated test result csv file. Now I want to be able to generate a graph of this extracted float value, but haven't figured out a way to do so, or have found and examples to create my own graph plug in to graph this value.
In next version of JMeter 5.0, you’ll be able to do that bu adding in user.properties this:
sample_variables=VarName
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_mm_hit.classname=org.apache.jmeter.report.processor.graph.impl.CustomGraphConsumer
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_mm_hit.title=Graph Title
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_mm_hit.property.set_Y_Axis=Response Time (ms)
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_mm_hit.property.set_X_Axis=Over Time
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_mm_hit.property.set_granularity=${jmeter.reportgenerator.overall_granularity}
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_mm_hit.property.setSampleVariableName=VarName
jmeter.reportgenerator.graph.custom_mm_hit.property.setContentMessage=Message for graph point label
In above example:
VarName is the name of your variable
custom_mm_hit would be a unique id for your graph, you should change it but always prefix with "custom_"
To configure and generate graph see:
https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/generating-dashboard.html
You ‘ll get a new Graph of value over time in Custom Graphs section.
To download nightly build which is stable snd will be very close to 5.0, see:
https://jmeter.apache.org/nightly.html
You can use Sample Variables property to save your float value into .jtl results file
Add the next line to user.properties file:
sample_variables=foo
Replace foo with your actual JMeter Variable Reference Name from the Regular Expression Extractor
When you run your test next time you will see an extra column in the .jtl results file holding your float variable value. Another option is setting this property via -J command-line argument like
jmeter -Jsample_variables=foo -n -t test.jmx -l result.jtl
See Configuring JMeter and Apache JMeter Properties Customization Guide articles for more information on tuning your JMeter engine using properties.
Once you get the value stored you can plot the chart using LibreOffice Calc or Microsoft Excel or equivalent.
If you want to come up with a plugin to plot the custom variable you can start with How to write a plugin for JMeter guide and then look into source of i.e. Latencies Over Time plugin which lives in GitHub
I have a csv file which contains a column named "query". One of the entires I have for query is /user/${id}/list/${list}.
What I would like to do is let jMeter overwrite the ${list} and ${id} variables in the query when it is passed to a HTTP Sampler with variable values already in use from previous steps in my test plan.
For example:
In test plan, create ${id} = 5 and ${list} = 10.
In test plan, open csv file that contains query string.
In test plan, perform use a HTTP Sampler. Path in query should be the query value passed from csv file.
3a. Jmeter should take query passed to sampler and replace ${id} and ${list} with the values stored to those variables within test plan (5 and 10).
Right now when I try this, the HTTP response comes back showing the request was made to /user/${id}/list/${list}, not /user/5/list/10.
Does anyone know how to force the substitution through jMeter?
Is it even possible?
I was able to figure this one out after a bit of head scratching.
JMeter allows you to overload variables (place references to variables within a variable) by using the __eval function.
To get around the issue, I left the csv file as is, with references to variables set. When I wanted to reference the query from the csv file and overload the variable placeholders with actual values I used ${__eval(${query})} - where query = the
Try to use __eval function instead:
/user/${__eval(${id})}/list/${__eval(${list})}
__eval function seems to be just your case.
It's a long story, but I will try make it simple:
I generated MeterMaid XML files with SugarMMM; I chose only the Accounts module:
I converted above files to JMeter format with MeterMaid (I consolidated the tests into one file and named it "filename.xml"):
ruby GenMeter.rb --inputfile=filename.xml --outputfile=filename.jmx
I did the necessary CSV setup. All the CSV file contains is the login details (usr,pwd) for testing concurrent user logins. This part works well indeed.
When I run the test, I can see that a whole bunch of ${} variables are converted into corresponding values. Sadly, ${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1} doesn't get resolved... here's what the GET url (from View Results Tree Listener component) looks like:
http://localhost/sugarcrm/index.php?module=${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1}&action=Popup&hide_clear_button=true&mode=MultiSelect&create=true&metadata=undefined
Note that it's not the only variable that isn't resolved. The following screenshot shows the other tests that fail, all also caused by other variables not replaced by their corresponding values:
Here's how this variable is set up (which is well before the time it's used):
Here's what Debug Sampler says:

Verify in your CSV dataset config, all variables are declared correctly (no typos, no omissions, no spaces before variable names, etc.)
I would also suggest putting a debug sampler high in your tree, as it will show you every variable and its value and can save a lot of time.
Edit:
It looks like your regex is setup incorrectly for creating multiple groups. If you look in your Debug sampler, you have SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE=Accounts but not SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1= . This implies you don't have GROUPS setup.
In looking at your regex, the line template: $0$ is saying "only give me one group", whereas it looks like you want 4. Thus, you should try template: $1$$2$$3$$4$ the first match should be _g1 the second _g2 and so on. Check out the manual for details.
make judicious use of the ${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1} variable throughout the script after it gets defined by the Regular Expression Extractor. Verify it exists. Use it in Controller titles, test headings, at the beginning of tests, and at the end of tests.
That will help narrow it down
This way you can follow it along in the script to make sure it exists just before the moment it is used, and find where it's breaking down. Basically print statement debugging.
I don't know about sugar CRM or metermaid but for jmeter I had a similar problem with variable that were not resolve.
Check if this variable is declared somewhere or maybe you need to write a reg ex to extract that value from the previous request.
The problem I got It was that I extracted the variable from a CSV files
the variable name was CONTRACTNO, CLIENTNO
my URL : /SomeURL/bla?eventId=contractSelected&contractNoSelected=${CONTRACTNO}&applicationID=BLa
And it wasn't working so I changed the variable name in the csv file to :
CONTRACTNO,CLIENTNO (look that I removed a space)
Jmeter tend to be very picky with space in name and variable definition.
You are expecting the following values
${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1}
but you have configured the Regular Expression Extractor reference name as
"SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE"
There two options you can get the values
You have to change the ${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE_g1} into ${SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE}
You have to change the Regular Expression Extractor reference name as "SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE _g1" to "SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE"
After this your values will be replaced properly.
It looks like your regular expression isn't picking up a match, your default value is set to "Accounts" and in your debug output that's the value of the variable. You'll only get match groups if the regular expression matches.
The View Results Tree listener now has a RegExp tester, so you can go to the request that you're trying to extract the variable SUBPANEL_RELATE_MODULE from the result in the results tree and choose RegExp Tester from the dropdown where it says "Text".
You can then run your regular expression on the response data in the RegExp tester and probably find that it doesn't match and then hone your regular expression so that it matches and update it in your Regular Expression Extractor.
