How to set default settings in JMeter for exporting result to csv file?
It keeps asking in pop up below
Since JMeter 3.3
Update jmeter.properties in JMeter's bin folder: uncomment the property
#resultcollector.action_if_file_exists=ASK
and choose value between 2 options (instead of ASK):
# APPEND : Append results to existing file
# DELETE : Delete existing file and start a new file
save the fle, and restart JMeter

I want to pass relative path file name in csv config element in jmeter.i have used ./filename.csv but the jmeter script doesn't work .I have also used ../filename.csv but jmeter script doesn't work.
Need resolution to pass relative path file name in csv config element in jmeter.i have used ./filename.csv but the jmeter script doesn't work .I have also used ../filename.csv but jmeter script doesn't work.
Relative to what?
As per CSV Data Set Config documentation:
Relative file names are resolved with respect to the path of the active test plan.
csvdata.txt and ./csvdata.txt - then these are treated as different files
If you have filename.csv in the same directory as your .jmx test plan - just use filename.csv, the ../filename.csv construction will look for the filename.csv file in the parent folder for the active test plan.
If you want to know the full path to the current base directory - look for FileServer entry in the jmeter.log file
INFO o.a.j.s.FileServer: Set new base='/this/would/be/the/base/for/relative/CSV/file/lookup'
you will see where JMeter tries to load the CSV file in the same jmeter.log file
I have a CSV File whose location is going to change later. Using Jmeter how can I still read the file even if the location change?
You can set the location of the CSV file as a JMeter property and pass it through the command line or through user.properties file
Set the file name with a property in the CSV Data Set Config element
${__P(full-path-to-file,/Users/hansi/Documents/test-data/test-data-users.csv)}
Note: A default value /Users/hansi/Documents/test-data/test-data-users.csv is set in the above screenshot.
2.Define the value
2.1 In user.properties file
full-path-to-file=/Users/hansi/Documents/test-data/test-data-users.csv
or
2.2 Set the property when JMeter test is executed from commandline
./jmeter.sh -n -t test-plan.jmx -Jfull-path-to="/Users/hansi/Documents/test-data/test-data-users.csv"
If the CSV file is going to change location then you could store the test plan which is using the file alongside it. This would maintain the context of the test plan if the CSV itself is going to be moving by storing them together. In JMeter relative file names are resolved with respect to the path of the active test plan (based on the official documentation), allowing you to specify only the name of the file in the CSV Data Set Config Filename property.
am using JMeter 4.0 and I have been trying to parameterize the filename in "Attach files" option with no success. I am required to use attachments of varying sizes and with each loop a random pdf file (from the set of files saved locally in d drive) to be attached with the email.
I am using a CSV data set config for parameterization and see no issues in using the parameters in Subject line of within the Message.
However, when used with the attach files option, the JMeter test fails to execute with FileNotFoundException as the variable name is substituted as such instead of the pdf filename. Is there a solution?
Error Message: java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\Data_Jmeter\${AttachFile}.pdf (The system cannot find the file specified)
I cannot reproduce your problem using the following settings:
Where ${path} is set via User Defined Variables on Test Plan level and resolves into "bin" folder of my JMeter installation
The same situation for ${path} variable originating from the CSV Data Set Config
So I would recommend to double check if your ${AttachFile} variable is defined, you can do this using Debug Sampler and View Results Tree listener combination
In my Jmeter test, I am able to use REGEX Extraction, After extraction I want to write the value of the REGEX variable into a file
I found a workaround as using beanshell as mentioned here https://stackoverflow.com/a/15159521/4556894
Is there any clean way of doing it, May be some inbuilt features, which I am not aware of
It is possible to write variable values into JMeter .jtl results file. There is a JMeter Property called sample_variables
Optional list of JMeter variable names whose values are to be saved in the result data files.
Use commas to separate the names.For example:
sample_variables=SESSION_ID,REFERENCE
So if you run JMeter in command-line non-GUI mode as follows:
jmeter -Jsample_variables=myVariable -n -t /path/to/your/testplan.jmx -l /path/to/testresults.jtl
You'll get the output like
timeStamp,elapsed,label,responseCode,responseMessage,threadName,dataType,success,bytes,grpThreads,allThreads,Latency,"myVariable"
1425978657207,368,HTTP Request,200,OK,Thread Group 1-1,text,true,1591,1,1,367,YOUR_VARIABLE_VALUE
In above example column names are given for reference, they are not included into csv results file by default. This behavior is controllable via jmeter.save.saveservice.print_field_names property, set it to "true" to get column names printed along with results data.
You can also set sample_variables property value in user.properties file which lives under /bin folder of your JMeter installation or uncomment it in jmeter.properties file (same location)
For more information on JMeter properties and ways of setting and/or overriding them refer to Apache JMeter Properties Customization Guide
My scripts was working fine but now it starts showing that max redirects are more than the limit set up in jmeter.properties file.How can it be possible as before it was not throwing any error before and script was passing perfectly.Can anyone help me with that.
JMeter default maximum redirects count is 5.
It is controllable via httpsampler.max_redirects property. You can increase its value using one of the following options:
Uncomment #httpsampler.max_redirects=5 line in jmeter.properties file. The file lives under /bin folder of your JMeter installation. Property change implies JMeter restart.
Add httpsampler.max_redirects=N line to user.properties file (same location, /bin folder of your JMeter installation). Set "N" value to desired number of redirects. Again, JMeter restart will be required.
Pass this property via -J command line argument as
jmeter -Jhttpsampler.max_redirects=20`
For more information on different JMeter properties and options on manipulating them refer to Apache JMeter Properties Customization Guide
Navigate to /bin directory of your J Meter installation.
Locate j meter properties file and open it in any editor.
Search for “ HTTP sampler. max_redirects” property in opened file.
UN-comment the above property by removing # before it.
Change to value to more than 5 e.g. 50.
Save the file and restart J Meter.
