I have setup TeamCity with JMeter plugin. Under Build Configuration -> Build Features, I selected 'Performance metrics calculation'. I can see the build log is cumulative with previous execution results. However, when checking for failure conditions in the build log for 404 or 500 status code, it always fails if at least one previous instance has these response codes. Without this, the build always says Pass even if there are couple of requests that fail with error codes.
Under 'Check reference values', is it possible to set reference values to check the metrics against responsecode for errors? The only available options are 'Average', '90% line' and 'Max'. Any insight into how I can add options to select and search for error response codes?
Screenshots attached for reference
Thank you.
TeamCity JMeter Performance Metrics Collection
The plugin is open source so theoretically you should be able to add required metric to check.
As a workaround I can suggest using Response Assertion to check response codes. If you need to test only "200" status code - it will be the matter of only one assertion (same level as HTTP Request samplers).

While execution of negative TC (login with Invalid user), i need to login with invalid data, but not get marked the execution as failed in 'View Results Tree', coz this is expected behavior by the system.
I try changing parameters in .jmx file, but without any result.
Is this possible to be done, so my 'http request' wont be marked as Failed?
If the failure is being caused by receiving HTTP Response Code >= 400 you can add a Response Assertion as a child of the request which is not supposed to fail and tick Ignore Status box
Check out Response Assertions in JMeter 3.2 - New and Improved article for more information on defining custom pass/fail criteria with Response Assertion
If your request fails for any other reason - please clarify it so we could come up with the optimal solution. Be aware that you can mark the request as passed using JSR223 Listener and the following Groovy code:
prev.setSuccessful(true)
Well, you can use a single Response Assertion with only 'ignore status' option checked.
See below screenshot

I have a Jmeter script for an application for which i get pop up error message intermittently. Where as in jmeter we only come to know that flow got terminated by some failure.But we wont come to know the occurrence of Error pop -up message.
My requirement is if we encounter pop up error i want to write to an external file saying that ,the current page got failed due to pop-up error message.
If we can write the error message it's really great. I'm as of now not getting idea to achieve this.
Please can anyone help me in this. or can provide any hint to do R&D.
Thankyou in advance.
Updated the question with screen shot of error message.
As per JMeter project main page:
JMeter is not a browser, it works at protocol level. As far as web-services and remote services are concerned, JMeter looks like a browser (or rather, multiple browsers); however JMeter does not perform all the actions supported by browsers. In particular, JMeter does not execute the Javascript found in HTML pages. Nor does it render the HTML pages as a browser does (it's possible to view the response as HTML etc., but the timings are not included in any samples, and only one sample in one thread is ever displayed at a time).
Looking into your screenshot, it is a form of JavaScript popup, most likely window.alert so there is no way to detect it via JMeter.
You can add i.e. Response Assertion to your test in order to introduce some pass/fail criteria, i.e. if you were in the middle of some transaction when the error occurred it should not finish successfully resulting in missing expected entry in the web page (or database), so you can conditionally fail relevant sampler(s) in this case. See How to Use JMeter Assertions in Three Easy Steps to learn more about the concept.
Alternatively you can use WebDriver Sampler plugin which provides JMeter integration with Selenium browser automation framework which drives a real browser, so you will be able to capture this popups and record the page titles/take screenshots, check out IsAlertPresent() class for more information.
you must get this error response in your jmeter request response.simple answer.Have a regex to extract.
I'm using Jmeter to perform load test on Moodle application
I followed the below steps to replicate a simple "add company " test scenario
1: Recorded the browser actions through HTTP Test script recorder and created a test plan with thread user of 1
2: Added HTTP Cache Manager,Added regular expression extractor for retrieving dynamically generated session for login HTTP request.
For Http request of adding new company, addded user parameters containing new company name
I run the test, everything seems ok in the view results tree- response section (response code: 200,response message:OK), all the required variables are passed in the HTTP POST
PROBLEM: New company added through Jmeter test is not reflected in UI of the moodle action
Can any of you please let me know
Is there something I could be missing or anyway I can debug the problem?
P.S: I'm new to Jmeter and looked around a lot for data inputted through Jmeter not being displayed in the UI of the web application,dint find useful results.
The answer to questions of this sort is almost always that you missed some necessary dynamic value besides session ID which you did catch.
An HTTP200 response just means the server returned a "good" response. Which could also happily contain an error message.
I would check the actual html body of the returned response for any errors. Checking the log on the server side can give you clues to what went wrong sometimes. You should also try adding a cookie manager.
Run your test with 1 virtual user in GUI mode with View Results Tree listener enabled and inspect responses to see where your scripts fails. My expectation is that you simply cannot log in.
See Moodle-JMeter-LoadTest.jmx file for reference, it uses XPath Extractor to get session key and course id.
I don't think you can test using JMeter. Try JUnit Test cases instead http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/junitsampler_tutorial.pdf
In a sample, I checked "Retrieve all Embedded Resources" but now my sample reports an error if a linked resource is missing (HTTP status 404 from the server).
Can I tell my sample to retrieve the embedded resources but to ignore missing or problematic linked resources ? (so I can stop the unit only if a real functional problem occurs, and not when an image is missing)
One possibility is to edit ./bin/jmeter.properties and set httpsampler.ignore_failed_embedded_resources=true as fixed by Bug 44301.
You can work it around using JMeter Assertions
Add a Response Assertion as a child of the sampler which produces 404 code
Configure it as follows:
Apply to: check Main sample and sub-samples
Response fields to test: check Ignore status
In this case erroneous statuses of mail sampler and its children will be ignored.

During the load test http 5XX or 4XX occur. the summary report show the error% but i see no way to see the details of the error.
usually in other load testing tools i am able to generate error graph which shows when it occurred and the request and response details.
In jmeter what do i have to do to capture this information for later analysis.
I tried to use "tree result listener" but this is usually good for one user run for debugging purpose and not for on load.
You got error details with "view result tree". If you want see error then you have to check "Log/Display Only: Error".
You can display various information with "Graph", but the "Graph" in Jmeter is very limited.
You can capture information in different Formats XML or CSV. You have to add "Report" then you can configure what you want to capture.
