How to parameterize http methods in Jmeter using CSV data config?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Hari

Create a file, i.e. test.csv with the following contents:
GET
POST
Add CSV Data Set Config and configure it like:
Filename: test.csv
Variable Names: METHOD
Add HTTP Request sampler and set "Method" to ${METHOD}
That's it, when you run your test each iteration it will use the next line from the test.csv file
Also be aware that according to JMeter Best Practices you should always be using the most recent JMeter version so consider upgrading to JMeter 4.0 (or whatever version is available at JMeter downloads page) as soon as possible

Jmeter generate HTTP TimeStampRequest RFC3161

I would like to use Jmeter to generate HTTP TimeStampRequests "application/timestamp-query" as presented in the standard RFC3161.
Currently I'm using Java program to do it but I would like to improve it by using Jmeter functionalities.
Is it possible to do it ?
If you want to use JMeter's HTTP Request samplers you can:
Compile your code into .jar file
Put the .jar into JMeter Classpath
Use the function from the .jar file to generate the request body from the JSR223 PreProcessor
Set the request body to the value generated in the step 3

how to change http method in data driven testing in jmeter using java

Does anyone know how to use java to change the HTTPrequest methods in Jmeter. I see a version of it but they use python. thanks
You can define whatever JMeter Variable you want in the "Method" input of the HTTP Request sampler like:
Given you properly define this ${METHOD} variable value you should be able to parameterise the HTTP Method by using external data sources, i.e. via CSV Data Set Config

How do I get Apache JMeter to include a GET or POST parameter in its CSV log output?

I am performing HTTP Request samples (both GET and POST) in JMeter and am trying to figure out how to include pieces of the request (right now, just the query and form parameters) in the CSV log output. It seems like I'll have to use something like BeanShell Listener to write my own log file using the JMeter API. Does that sound right?

Not necessarily. Given your parameters are in form of JMeter Variables (if not - you can convert them via User Defined Variables test element) you can use samples_variable property in order to add values to JMeter's .jtl results file
Add the next line to user.properties file (it's located under /bin folder of your JMeter installation)
sample_variables=var1,var2,etc.
where var1 and var2 are your JMeter Variables
Restart JMeter to pick the property up
Next time you run your test variable values will be added to .jtl results file

How to import webservices in Jmeter

I'm trying to import the webservices that are in the WSDL into Jmeter using SOAP/XML-RPC request. But I didn't see anything with the 'Import' or LoadWSDL option. I saw this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsmrHK6FPjA which has the webservice(SOAP) request which I cant see it in my Jmeter version.
The reason I'm asking is because in each SOAP/XML-RPC Data, I've to open SOAPUI to get blank request and then paste it in the Jmter. We have hundreds of webservices to test and this method is getting very lengthy process.
Is there a way in Jmeter to create blank requests like SOAP UI if I give the wsdl URL and it generates all possible requests for us. Thanks in advance.
There is no such import feature in JMeter.
But a way to do it is to put JMeter as a proxy for SOAP UI using HTTP Test Script Recorder, then you would avoid Copy/paste thing.
Read also this for up to date way of testing webservices:
http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/build-ws-test-plan.html
As per the jmeter latest version help WebService(SOAP) Request sampler is DEPRECATED. This sampler is having load WSDL option. Try older version of jmeter..

Randomizing http request path in Jmeter

Currently my jmeter tests have a few GET http requests. In the request, i've got data filled in the "path" field.
I'm looking for a way to randomize Jmeter so it will call an array of "paths", however i can't seem to figure this out. Anyone have any tips?
thanks!
JMeter's test element most commonly used for parametrization and data-driven testing is CSV Data Set Config
There are built-in JMeter Functions which can be used to get data from external sources
__StringFromFile
__CSVRead
There is a chooseRandom function available via JMeter Plugins
