JMeter While Controller doesn't loop SOAP/XML-RPC Request - jmeter

I have a JMeter script with
-Thread Group
- While Controller
-SOAP/XML-RPC Request
-Regular Expression Extractor
Extractor gets response code, While controller checks if it's = "200"
(${__javaScript("$errCode)== "500";)})
And for some reason, it doesn't loop.
But if replace SOAP request with HTTP request it's looping.
How can I loop with while SOAP request?

According to Apache's manual: "Otherwise - exit (or don't enter) the loop when the condition is equal to the string "false""
Apparently, SOAP/XML-RPC Request is failed and that's the reason why loop didn't start

pass http request response to use in others http requests in same thread group

I'm new using JMeter and I have this case:
Test Plan
Test Group1
Http Request 1
Json Extractor1
BeanShell Assertion1
Http Request 2
Http Request 3
And I want to use the response of HTTP req 1(extracted in JSON extractor) in both HTTP request 2 and 3. For request 2 is working fine I just use ${response} and works fine but when I try to user the same variable in request 3 is like is empty is not showing anything.
So I tried to put the BeanShell Assertion and do a var.set or even a set property, but is still not working. It is like the var or property is being set, and I can see them in HTTP req 2 but in HTTP req 3 they are empty.
Is there another way to set the variable or the response of the request 1 to be use in any other requests of the same thread?
Thanks
You need to amend your test design and make the JSON Extractor a child of the Http Request 1
Test Plan
Test Group1
HTTP Request 1
JSON Extractor
HTTP Request 2
HTTP Request 3
If you have JSON Extractor at the same level as HTTP Requests 1-3 it's being executed after every of them so it tries to extract the value from HTTP Request 2 response, doesn't find it and the variable gets empty or default value.
The same applies to the Beanshell Assertion.

With regards to using Beanshell in general it's not very recommended, since JMeter 3.1 you should be using JSR223 Test Elements and Groovy language

How to run the request based on previous request response data

I have test plan with following request in sequence with 2 loops.
ApiHttp request
Mqtt request
I need to run 1st loop & verify API reaponse is true or false:
If it's true, run Mqtt request , else start the 2nd loop and same verify the API response, if it's true run Mqtt else stop.
In above scenarios, I put beanshell to read the API response:
vars.put("response", new String(data));
But don't know how to verify of its true or false & execute the Mqtt. Any help pls.
Add If Controller as the very first test element under the Thread Group and use the __groovy() function as the condition:
${__groovy(vars.getIteration() <= 2,)}
Put ApiHttp request as a child of the If Controller
Add another If Controller after the ApiHttp request and use the following __groovy() function as the condition:
${__groovy(ctx.getPreviousResult().getResponseDataAsString().contains('true'))}
Add Mqtt request as a child of the If Controller
Add Flow Control Action sampler after the Mqtt request and configure it like:
First switch from Beanshell to JSR223 Test elements and use Groovy.
Use If Controller and just put in it:
${response}
To stop the test based on iteration number, be aware that a Loop Controller exposes iteration as a variable based on name of variable, for example if your LoopController is named LC, then you can access iteration as:
vars["__jm__LC__idx"].toInteger()
And to stop a test from Groovy using JSR223 Assertion you can throw:
throw new org.apache.jorphan.util.JMeterStopTestException();
See:
https://jmeter.apache.org/api/org/apache/jorphan/util/JMeterStopTestException.html

Is there anyway to hold response until we get full response from server in Jmeter?

The services I'm trying to test, will work on long pooling method.
They won't give results in first response.
When I run my API script I am not getting full response in first time.
How can I wait in this case for the remaining portion of response to be received?
I want to use values from this response into next call..
In the above screen my response should wait when complete:True
As far as I understand your requirement you need to repeat the Gethotels request until complete attribute becomes true.
In order to accomplish this:
Add a JSON Extractor as a child of the Gethotels request and set it up as follows:
Put your Gethotels request under the While Controller and use the following __jexl3() function as the condition:
${__jexl3("${complete}" != "true",)}
That's it, While Controller loop the Gethotels request until complete becomes true

One Parameter of HTTP Response to Another HTTP request in JMETER

In JMeter,
I have One Thread , Say T1 and it has 4 HTTP requests. Say HR1 to HR4.
I fed some data via parameterization to HR1 and I need one value from the response of HTTP request of HR1 and I need to pass it to HR2 and later HR4.
I tried Extractor's and BeanShell expression. But its not working.
I got the Answer.
I Took the "Regular Expression Extractor" from the response and put it under the first HTTP request.
In the Second HTTP request, i called the that one and it worked like Magic :)
Thanks.

How do I resend a sampler upon a failed assertion on JMeter?

I am designing a load test in JMeter.
With the current application that we have whenever a HTTP request is sent, the web server will very occasionally send back a page with a message. To get around this we just have to reload the page. This page could come up for literally any HTTP request.
Is there any way to design a test in JMeter where when a sampler fails, the sampler simply retries?
I'm not sure how I can get a Beanshell sampler to resend a HTTP request.
It is possible via additional Beanshell Assertion
You can re-run arbitrary sampler from the Beanshell Assertion as simple as
ctx.getCurrentSampler().sample(null);
Add a Beanshell Assertion after all other assertions. It matters as assertions are being executed upside-down.
Put the following code into Beanshell Assertion's "Script" area (just change "message" to what your server returns on error.
import org.apache.jmeter.samplers.SampleResult;
if (new String(ResponseData).equals("message")) {
SampleResult result = ctx.getCurrentSampler().sample(null);
if (result.getResponseDataAsString().equals("message")) {
Failure = true;
} else {
SampleResult.setSuccessful(true);
}
}
You'll have only one result recorded.
If assertion passes 1st time - it'll be successful
If assertion fails 1st time and passes 2nd time - it'll be successful
If assertion fails 2 times - it'll be recorded as failed.
For extended information on Beanshell scripting check out How to use BeanShell: JMeter's favorite built-in component guide.
Create such hierarchy:
Thread Group (1 user, 1 second ramp-up, forever)
-While Controller (empty condition = forever)
--Counter (start – 1, increment – 1, reference name – counter)
--HTTP request
---Timer (I prefer constant Timer, responseble for pause betwee retrying)
---BeanShell Post Processor
BeanShell Post Processor should contains(pseudo code):
if(Integer.parseInt(vars.get("counter")>5)
{
prev.setSuccessful(false);
prev.setStopTestNow(true);
}
if(successCondition)
{
prev.setStopTest(true);
}
There is no direct way to achieve it, but I think you can use While controller in conjuction with Regex extractor to resend the failed requests.
Logical flow could be,
1. HTTP request
2. Regex extractor post processor - check response contains failure extract value in msg variable, default is success
3. While controller - run till msg=failure, default value of msg is success
Example screenshot,
Let me know if this works.
