Parameterization of server name or IP from csv in jmeter
Eg:www.google.com
www.yahoo.com
www.bing.com
How to Parameterise these values in a single script.
Just like any other parameterization
Given your CSV file looks like:
google.com
bing.com
yahoo.com
Create your test plan as follows:
Thread Group (threads: 1, loops: 3)
CSV Data Set Config (Filename: path to your csv file, Variable names: anything meaningful, i.e. server)
HTTP Request: (Server Name or IP: ${server}
You can also optionally add View Results Tree listener to visualise request and response details.
See Using CSV DATA SET CONFIG for detailed walkthrough and few more tips and tricks
Please correct me if I am wrong. Do you want to randomly choose which IP would JMeter use?
You can create values like host1 host2 host3, and then simply add ${host${__Random(1,3,)}}
Unless you have a ton of different hosts, then my approach is sloppy :)

I am using graphql in jmeter for API testing. Where in graphal we have the query and variable section.
My query would require a client ID which is int. Where as in Variable if I try to pass "{clientid : ${clientid}}"(here I am passing the CSV config variable, for testing the app for multiple users). But it is throwing an error like $ is unauthorised and expecting a (json,null,true or false).
Please help me out how I can pass the clientid which is a csv config variable.
Thanks in advance.
It looks like your CSV Data Set Config setup is not very correct so the JMeter Variable placeholder isn't getting substituted with its respective value from the CSV file.
We cannot help without seeing first couple of lines of the CSV file and your CSV Data Set Config setup so far I can only suggest re-visit the configuration and cross-check it with JMeter Documentation
You can observe JMeter Properties and Variables with their values using Debug Sampler and View Results Tree listener combination, if you don't see clientid line there - the variable is not set and JMeter sends it as it is, to wit "{clientid : ${clientid}}" and doesn't substitute ${clientid} with the value from CSV
i am new to jmeter. i would like to run multiple urls at one shot and display the results on one screen. finding hard to config urls through csv file and in jmeter.
my sample url:
http://10.56.34.67:7065/services/sample/2070
http://10.56.34.67:7065/services/sample1/2070
http://10.56.34.67:7065/services/sample2/2070
like this i have more thn 100 url to test it.
could you please tell me the format to store urls in csv file and how to config the csv file in jmeter?
It has simple as
Click Ctrl+0,Ctrl+1 which adds Thread Group and HTTP Request in side
In HTTP Request add ${path} to Path field
In Thread Group choose Loop Count Forever
Add CSV Data Set Config by right click on Thread Group -> Add -> Config Element
CSV Data Set Config parameters :
a. Put the fileanme in Fileanme field
b. Enter in Variable Names path
c. Choose Recycle as False
d. Choose Stop Thread as True
Click Ctrl+R (run)
It will go through all URLs and submit them sequentially
To view results you can add View Results Tree (Click Ctrl+9) and you will see all your requests/responses.
It seems your data here is your URLs.
So instead of using multiple samplers for each URL, you can go for CSV Data config and store all your URLs there and name the column as URL.
you can refer to this in your single http sampler as ${URL}.
Your CSV should look like this
In Server name put ${URL} and in the Thread Group check the forever check box
You don't need CSV for this use case, the easiest way would be going for __StringFromFile() function.
In the HTTP Request sampler put the __StringFromFile() function into "Path" input field like:
The textual function representation is ${__StringFromFile(urls.txt)}, you will need to replace urls.txt with full or relative path to the file where your URLs are listed
That's it, each time the request is called JMeter will read the next line from the file and substitute request path with the string from file:
See Apache JMeter Functions - An Introduction article to get familiarized with JMeter Functions concept
I have csv file contains URL and port no.i want to pass in all samplers.How to do that?
I have tried ${URL},${Port_no}.but,it is of no use
It's working, If you CSV holds for example:
www.google.com,80
Configure the CSV Data Set Config:
And add HTTP Request with Server Name as ${URL} and port as ${Port_no}
If there is only 2 values you would like to parameterize the easier option would be:
Pass the URL and the Port_no via -J command-line arguments like:
jmeter -JURL=http://example.com -JPort_no=443
Add HTTP Request Defaults configuration element to your Test Plan and refer the properties using __P() function like:
${__P(URL,)}
${__P(Port_no,)}
In your HTTP Request samplers leave the relevant fields blank - they will be populated from the HTTP Request Defaults.
This is my test URL " http://appr.seconddemo.org/hitssurveys/survey?uid=113&offerid=311&subid=subvalues&offr_id={Email} "
I want to hit the url 1500 times per second , and want to change the "{Email}" with real value in each iteration.
How it's possible please give me a step by step guide.
Considering that you need to pass the emails from the external file, the most efficient way that we are using in software testing companies is to pass the variable from .csv or .txt files using 'CSV Data Set Config' element of the JMeter.
Please find the steps that you need to follow:
Add a 'CSV Data Set Config' element from 'Config Element' by right-clicking the thread group
Set Filename field with complete path to your .csv or .txt file that contains your emails
Set Variable field as 'Email' [This variable name should be same as you set in your url request]
Ignore first line to False
Set other fields as per your requirement
Now add HTTP Sampler in your Thread Group and set the Protocol, Server Name, Method & Path as instructed in the screenshot:
Create .csv or .txt file and add all emails separated by new line:
Hope this answer is useful.
You can use the CSV Data Set Config. Put all your email credentials in the CSV file and make sure you have put this CSV file in your JMeter /bin directory.
Add a CSV dataset config in your test plan. Your CSV dataset config should be like:
Now in your thread group, define the number of threads you want to execute and then in your sampler put the path as follows:
http://appr.seconddemo.org/hitssurveys/survey?uid=113&offerid=311&subid=subvalues&offr_id=${Email}
Depending on where do your emails live there are following options:
If they are in a text file, each email on a new line you can use __StringFromFile() function like:
If they are in a database you can use JDBC PreProcessor to fetch the data from the database table column and put your request under ForEach Controller
If you need to provide just some random characters you can use __RandomString() function.

I have an API call URL similar to this:
http://domain.com/rest/getValues?apiKey=sdfsdf&customerId=2200×tampBegin=2013-08-15%2018:00:00%20CEST×tampEnd=2013-08-19%2018:00:00%20CEST
I would like to dynamically change the time stamps, as well as the customerId, picked from a given set of timestamps and customerIds. Is this possible to do in Jmeter (preferably through GUI)?
Assuming that you are have inputs coming from external CSV file, you can use CSV data set config as explained here.
Your test plan will look something like
Thread groups
CSV Data Set config (define the file path and the variable names. You will be able to read these variables in request.
HTTP Sampler
http://domain.com/rest/getValues?apiKey=sdfsdf&customerId=${custid}×tampBegin=${begin}×tampEnd=${end}
