how to use variable in jmeter like counter - jmeter

I'm using loop controller inside the jmeter script, and I'm not able to fetch previous variable value in pre-processor beanshell.
Example:
var temp = 1; log.info("before : "+temp.toString()); temp++; prev.put("t",temp.toString());
Thanks in advance

To save values b/w iterations:
Following is one of the ways to store and retrieve the values b/w iterations:
log.info("temp prev value " + vars.get("temp")); // first iteration returns null
vars.put("temp","something"); // store or override the value, so it will be available in next iterations.
To know iteration number:
If your need is to know the iteration number, then use Counter:
In beanshell preprocessor, access using reference name (counter) as shown below:

Use same random variable in all threads

I've got test plan :
Thread groups ( users 3, loop 2)
Random Variable
HTTP Request
I want variable to be changed only per loop, so under each iteration all three threads should send same value.
So I want something like this :
request where random var = X
request where random var = X
request where random var = X
request where random var = Y
request where random var = Y
request where random var = Y
I tried a lot of workounds but can't find proper solution.
P.S. I don't want to read variables from file. I need to generate them
No matter whatever you "want" the best option would be pre-generating random values somewhere in setUp Thread Group and writing it to the file and then using CSV Data Set Config in the "main" Thread Group to read the values.
However if this is still not something you "want" here is yet another "workaround", hopefully it's "proper" enough for you:
Add JSR223 PreProcessor as a child of the request which you "want" to parameterize with the random variable
Put the following code into "Script" area:
if (props.get('foo_' + vars.getIteration()) != null {
props.put('foo_' + vars.getIteration(), org.apache.commons.lang3.RandomUtils.nextInt(0, 100))
}
Refer the "generated" random value using the following __groovy() function where required:
${__groovy(props.get('foo_' + vars.getIteration()),)}

Assigning values to different variable in JMeter

I have two different array with values as below:
Code = [8,9,10]
Value = [4,5,6]
I need to get the values from each array (above mentioned) randomly and assign it to different variable like below:
Code 1 = 9 , Code2=10
Value1 = 4 , Value2=6
Or is there any way in Jmeter to Pass that array to another sampler thereby assigning it to different variables.
How can we achieve it on Jmeter ? Any help / Suggestions is welcome!
Your values look utterly like JSON Arrays so my expectation is that you could handle it more easy using JSON Extractor
Just in case I'm wrong you can get random code and/or value using the following Groovy code in any of JSR223 Test Elements
import org.apache.commons.lang3.RandomUtils
def codes = vars.get('Code').findAll(/\d+/ )*.toInteger()
def values = vars.get('Value').findAll(/\d+/ )*.toInteger()
def randomCode = codes.get(RandomUtils.nextInt(0,codes.size()))
def randomValue = values.get(RandomUtils.nextInt(0,values.size()))
log.info('Random code: ' + randomCode)
log.info('Random value: ' + randomValue)
Demo:
You can use "Config Element" > "Random Variable" where you can give a range and ask for a random number within that given range.
Hope it helps.

How to call Jmeter Counter Reference Name variable incrementing one

In my testplan, I'm using Counter config element and have configured start = 1, increment = 1, maximum = 4 and the ReferenceName = loopCount.
And in a sampler, I have used Json Extractor as well where I want to set the
Match No: ${loopCount} + 1
since in the Json file I'm extracting always the first match is null.
Unfortunately I think I can't give it like
${loopCount} + 1.
Is there any work around for this.. please help.
You can add a BeanShell Sampler after the Counter config element with the below code in the code area:
int Counter = Integer.parseInt(vars.get("loopCount"));
vars.put("Increment", String.valueOf(Counter+1));
And now you can use the variable ${Increment} as the Match No.
OR
You can use ${__intSum(${loopCount},1)} which will add 1 to the value of loopCount variable directly.

Printing loop controller iteration number in beanshell scripting

I have a scenario.
ThreadGroup (loop value set to 1),
loop controller (value set to 5),
HTTP request,
Beanshell preprocessor
In Beanshell preprocessor i need to print loop controller iteration value like 1,2,3,4,5.
I use log.info(vars.getIteration()); but it prints (Threadgroup loop iteration number)
Will anybody guide me how to do this.
Depending on what you're trying to achieve:
Either use Counter configuration element and print the "Reference Name" variable via vars.get("foo");
or put __counter() function somewhere, i.e. in "Parameters" input like ${__counter(,)} and refer it as log.info("Current iteration: " + Parameters);
or define a variable and increment it as required like:
int iteration = vars.getObject("iteration"));
iteration++;
vars.putObject("iteration", iteration);

Can we aggregate dynamic number of rows using Talend Open Studio

I'm a beginner in Talend Open Studio, and I'm trying to do the transformation below.
From a SQL Table that contains:
DeltaStock Date
------------------------
+50 (initial stock) J0
+80 J1
-30 J2
... ...
I want to produce this table:
Stock Date
-----------
50 J0
130 J1
100 J2
... ...
Do you think this could be possible using TOS? I thought of using tAggregateRow, but I didn't find it appropriate to my issue.
There's probably an easier way to do this using the tMemorizeRows component but the first thought that comes to mind is to use the globalMap to store a rolling sum.
In Talend it is possible to store an object (any value or any type) in the globalMap so that it can be retrieved later on in the job. This is used automatically if you ever use a tFlowToIterate component which allows you to retrieve the values for that row that is being iterated on from the globalMap.
A very basic sample job might look like this:
In this we have a tJava component that only initialises the rolling sum in the globalMap with the following code:
//Initialise the rollingSum global variable
globalMap.put("rollingSum", 0);
After this we connect this component onSubjobOk to make sure we only carry on if we've managed to put the rollingSum into the globalMap.
I then provide my data using a tFixedFlowInput component which allows me to easily hardcode some values for this example job. You could easily replace this with any input. I have used your sample input data from the question:
We then process the data using a tJavaRow which will do some transformations on the data row by row. I've used the following code which works for this example:
//Initialise the operator and the value variables
String operator = "";
Integer value = 0;
//Get the current rolling sum
Integer rollingSum = (Integer) globalMap.get("rollingSum");
//Extract the operator
Pattern p = Pattern.compile("^([+-])([0-9]+)$");
Matcher m = p.matcher(input_row.deltaStock);
//If we have any matches from the regular expression search then extract the operator and the value
if (m.find()) {
operator = m.group(1);
value = Integer.parseInt(m.group(2));
}
//Conditional to use the operator
if ("+".equals(operator)) {
rollingSum += value;
} else if ("-".equals(operator)) {
rollingSum -= value;
} else {
System.out.println("The operator provided wasn't a + or a -");
}
//Put the new rollingSum back into the globalMap
globalMap.put("rollingSum", rollingSum);
//Output the data
output_row.stock = rollingSum;
output_row.date = input_row.date;
There's quite a lot going on there but basically it starts by getting the current rollingSum from the globalMap.
Next, it uses a regular expression to split up the deltaStock string into an operator and a value. From this it uses the operator provided (plus or minus) to either add the deltaStock to the rollingSum or subtract the deltaStock from the rollingSum.
After this it then adds the new rollingSum back into the globalMap and outputs the 2 columns of stock and date (unchanged).
In my sample job I then output the data using a tLogRow which will print the values of the data to the console. I typically select the table formatting option in it and in this case I get the following output:
.-----+----.
|tLogRow_8 |
|=----+---=|
|stock|date|
|=----+---=|
|50 |J0 |
|130 |J1 |
|100 |J2 |
'-----+----'
Which should be what you were looking for.
You should be able to do it in Talend Open Studio.
I attach here an image with the JOB, the content of the tJavaRow and the execution result.
I left under the tFixedFlowInput used to simulate the input a tJDBCInput that you should use to read the data from your DB. Hopefully you can use a specific tXXXInput for your DB instead of the generic JDBC one.
Here is some simple code in the tJavaRow.
//Code generated according to input schema and output schema
output_row.delta = input_row.delta;
output_row.date = input_row.date;
output_row.rollingSum =
Integer.parseInt(globalMap.get("rollingSum").toString());
int delta = Integer.parseInt(input_row.delta);
output_row.rollingSum += delta;
// Save rolling SUM for next round
globalMap.put("rollingSum", output_row.rollingSum);
Beware of the exceptions in the parseInt(). You should handle them the way you feel right.
In my projects I usually have a SafeParse library that does not throws exceptions but returns a default value I can pass together with the vale to be parsed.
