I just test my application that insert some data to database on other machine. Until the last scenario of test, jmeter says 0% error. But when I check my database, no data there. Where should I check this thing??
You need to use response assertions in order to test the correctness of response. Add response assertions and run the tests. At times the response code may be 200 ok but the action may not have been performed. In such cases you use response assertions.
Also verify response of your request to check the correctness of your script.
You should be looking at request and reesponse details in the View Results Tree listener. Also if your test relies on/uses JMeter Variables or JMeter Properties - you should also consider Debug Sampler or Debug PostProcessor
JMeter automatically treats 2xx and 3xx HTTP Response Codes successful, but it doesn't check integrity of response so it is totally up to you. See How to debug your Apache JMeter script article for more detailed tips.

I am testing rate limiting features of an API.
And I have a JMeter HTTP sampler request, for which the anticipated and actual response code is HTTP 429, Too many requests.
But in the Results Tree and in the generated HTML report, this request's response is marked as failure, even though the actual response is 429 and the Response assertions is also for code 429.
Because of this my overall report is skewed with 100% failures, whereas actually everything has passed.
I need ideas on how to fix this Jmeter reporting issue.
Check the attached screencap of the Response in ResultsTree
Of course it does, all HTTP status codes above 399 and below 500 are so called "client errors", in general JMeter treats response status codes above 399 as errors.
If status code 409 is something you expect you can configure JMeter to expect it as well, it can be done using Response Assertion configured like:

I have created scripts for smoke testing insurance quotes on jmeter.
Recently code has been turned off on production.
Now even though the code is off when I run my script my test gets passed.
Manually I am unable to perform the same steps in the production.
So what could be the issue with my script?
JMeter doesn't do any checks on the response body, it assumes that the request is successful if the HTTP Status code is below 400.
So if your HTTP Request samplers return HTTP Status code between 0 and 399 - it will be "green".
You can consider adding i.e. Response Assertion and configure it to check presence (or absence) of a specific text in the response body, this way you will be able to conditionally fail samplers if the expected text will not be present.

I am new to JMeter. I am using it for load testing for Microstrategy web dossiers. I am loading the users from CSV Config file. I have generated steps using Badboy software and exported as Jmeter file. I have added variables for userID and password. I have enabled "Retrieve all Embedded Resources". When I ran the testing. I observed that its giving same response even if password is wrong. taskProcs are giving connection closed error. I have searched with dossier ID in both the cases , I am able to see the request and response same even if password is wrong. Can you help me how to identify whether the credentials matched or not ? I would like to throw error when password didn't match ? I thought of adding Response Assertions but responses are same.
JMeter automatically treats HTTP Response Status codes below 400 as successful. So if HTTP Request sampler returns status 200 (or any other between 100 and 399) it's treated as success.
JMeter doesn't perform any checks for content, if you need to add explicit pass/fail criteria basing on the response body, presence or absence of certain text, sampler execution time, etc. you need to add a relevant Assertion and put the anticipated success criteria into the assertion.
First JMeter doesn't generate any error codes or error messages itself, what it actually do is working as client and giving back what application sends to JMeter.
I think first you have to make sure application works correctly, then check whether Jmeter scripts work correctly. For that add debug sampler before the API request and check whether variables username, password has evaluated correctly from the csv.
I have written a jmeter test script which automates booking in of cases by sends http post requests to our web application.
At the moment as long as you get a response back from the server it's successfull.
Is there a way it can pass the test only when the response doesn't contain the message error has occured and contains a booking reference
You can use Response Assertion
To test that response does not contain Error message check the "Not":

You can use Assertions for this.
With this u can lookup the response body, the response code...
Look at this tutorial: https://www.blazemeter.com/blog/how-use-jmeter-assertions-3-easy-steps
You can stop the test if one assertion fails in the thread group (I think).
I want JMeter ignore an error. That request error is expected and is part of our session initiation protocol. Can't find a way to hide that error from be displayed on stats etc.
In other words: One of my SOAP samplers return an error (401, authentication thing) and that is expected. That is request error, yes, but not an error to report really.
Is that possible in JMeter to hide such errors somehow and/or exclude them from the test result?
You can also add a Response Assertion bellow the request and check the "Ignore Status" flag.
Two options:
Reconfigure where you've placed your Listeners, so the request is effectively omitted from results.
Use a beanshell post processor to write a short beanshell script to change the status from "fail" to "pass" if the code is 401.
Thanks Adagios.
I was looking how to test authorization failure to restful web service. So, your solution really helped me.
I configured HTTP request and HTTP Authorization manager with wrong username. It is expected to fail. Then, I added Response Assertion with Text Response and Contains "HTTP ERROR 401". I also marked Ignore Status, so the failure (because of wrong username ) from HTTP Request is dropped. So, I'd see only failure from Response Assertion in Assertion Results.
I coudn't find a solution for this but if the result is always 401, why not omitting this sampler from the test?
You may exlude this sampler from the results manually.
