how to close websocket connection when empty response is received in JMeter - websocket

I am using Websocket plugin provided in JMeter-WebsocketPlugin.
In my test, Websocket connection should be closed when there is a empty response or when [Frame] is not received as response, in this case what would be the pattern for "WebSocket Response - Close connection pattern:"
I tried giving a space but did not work, please find the screenshots.

How to use existing websocket connection to another websocket request in jmeter?
When I tried to use existing connect then as result it show me an error "Sampler configured for using existing connection, but there is no connection" . Please refer attached screenshot.

It looks like you're using 2 different WebSocket Samplers implementations:
JMeter-WebSocketSampler
and JMeter WebSocket Samplers
Your WebSocket Single Write Sampler:
Doesn't know anything about the connection established by the WebSocket Sampler
The WebSocket Sampler closes the connection after receiving the response
So if you want to continue with the WebSocket Single Write Sampler you need to:
Use WebSocket Open Connection sampler to establish the connection:
In the WebSocket Single Write Sampler tick use existing connection box
More information: JMeter WebSocket Samplers - A Practical Guide
If you want to continue with the WebSocket Sampler - tick Streaming connection box:
and remove the WebSocket Single Write Sampler and friends from the Test Plan

Error while trying to send the message over websocket connection in Jmeter | WebSocket Samplers by Peter Doornbosch

I am using a plugin (WebSocket Samplers by Peter Doornbosch) to establish the WebSocket connection in JMeter and trying to send the request message over it but receiving below error in logs
ERROR - eu.luminis.jmeter.wssampler.RequestResponseWebSocketSampler: Unexpected frame type received in sampler 'WebSocket request-response Sampler': Close frame with status code null and close reason 'null'
My test plan consists of "WebSocket Open Connection", "Web-socket request-response sampler" and "web-socket ping/pong frame filter". And I feel there is no issue in establishing the connection but something is wrong while sending the request or receiving a response.
Also, tried checking the logs from the server but didn't find any requests which were sent using JMeter.
Implemented another available plugin too in Jmeter to test the WebSocket but seeing similar behavior. Any help would be highly appreciated.
It looks like you're using the wrong sampler type, looking into the error you're getting it makes more sense to use single-write sampler which is designed for sending one (text or binary) WebSocket frame.
You might want to use a sniffer tool like Fiddler or Wireshark to capture the traffic between your browser (or application) and the backend and see what types of frames are going, which direction, is single connection re-used or each time new one is established, etc.

The problem is that your server is actively closing the connection. Usually, this is caused by the client sending a request that the server does not understand. In your case, it's very likely that the request you are sending in the request-response sampler is not accepted by the server. As Dmitri suggests, the best way to find out how a "normal" client communicates with the server is to capture a session with WireShark and model your testplan accordingly.

How to prevent websocket opening handshake timeout?

I am trying to make a connection to a socket.io session. The connection is easily established, however, if I am idle for a short duration I get this error in my console:
websocket.js:116 WebSocket connection to 'ws://localhost:3000/socket.io/?EIO=3&transport=websocket&sid=PwzuR5tNmPmZfj0UAAAB' failed: WebSocket opening handshake timed out
I tried fixing the issue by setting pingTimeout and pingInterval but to no avail. I am not sure how to fix this or what is causing this.
On a side note, I am trying to read and understand the socket.io docs and am still not clear about what ping and pong packets exactly are. Does the client have to manually interact with the socketio server in order for it to receive pong packets or will it still receive pongs if say the client interacts with an http server on the same host ?

when using Jmeter to test websocket stomp, cannot send connect message correctly

I installed websocket stomp sampler plugin to Jmeter, and new a stomp sampler to test the server. but when I filled the connect message as the message
I got from the developer:
CONNECT
accept-version:1.1,1.0
heart-beat:10000,10000
host: qa.so.aws.mxj.mx
^#
The Jmeter gave 400 error and said
"- Connect or Subscribe Paylod Message are empty"
When I saw the request from Jmeter, it said:
["CONNECT\n\n\u0000"]
I don't know how to let Jmeter to get the correct connect message, please help me with this problem.
Try by giving both Connect Message and subscribe message.
Example:
Connect Message
CONNECT\naccept-version:1.1\nheart-beat:0,0
Subscribe Message
SUBSCRIBE\nid:sub-0\ndestination:/topic/queue
Select both the check boxes Streaming connection and stomp protocol along with other details (host, port, protocol, path, connection and response timeout).
