Is there a way to reference a variable from one BeanShell Pre/Post-Processor to another BeanShell Processor (they are within the same Thread Group)?
If I create a String variable inside a BeanShell PreProcessor under an HTTP Request, can I then use or reference that variable inside a BeanShell PostProcessor under that same HTTP Request..?
I tried Accessing this variable in the following ways:
+ HTTP Request
+ BeanShell PreProcessor:
String preProcessor1_MYID = "Value_1";
+ BeanShell PostProcessor:
String postProcessor1_MYID = "Value_2";
//Try #1:
String tmp_preProcessor1_MYID = preProcessor1_MYID;
//Try #2:
String tmp_preProcessor1_MYID = ${preProcessor1_MYID};
//Try #3:
String tmp_preProcessor1_MYID = ${__V(preProcessor1_MYID)};
//Try #4:
String tmp_preProcessor1_MYID = vars.get("preProcessor1_MYID");
Is there a different function like ${__V()} or vars.get(), that I'm missing that I'm supposed to be using? I was also wondering if I needed a User Defined Variables object in order to share this variable between BeanShell Pre/PostProcessors but I wasn't sure. I also read about the ${__BeanShell()} function, but didn't think that was what I was looking for either... Any ideas? I would assume this should be possible, but was hoping I didn't need to add anything like the User-Defined Vars object.
Any thoughts or suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in Advance,
Matt
If you need to use the value in other elements later,
store it in a vairable
vars.put("myvar", "value");
Now you can access it using
${myvar}
or in beanshell
vars.get("myvar").
You can also go for user defined variables, properties (share among thread groups).
Check this - it is also another option. - jMeter - Beanshell bsh.shared hashmap data in init file?

In the JSR Sampler I am assigning the value of a String I create i.e., SFDC_Prouct_1 in list. for e.g.,
list=SFDCProduct_5
Here SFDCProduct_5 is already a variable which has XML elements. Now I am trying to place a http request and in the payload I want to inject the value of SFDCProduct_5 . But I have to write ${list}, as list has the value of SFDCProduct_5 .
I tried ${${list}}, but thats not working.
Any ideas?
In JSR223 Sampler you can get the nested variable using vars.get
vars.get(vars.get("list"));
If I correctly understood your question you need to wrap your ${list} into __eval() function like
${__eval(${list})}
Demo:
See Here’s What to Do to Combine Multiple JMeter Variables article for more information if needed.
I have a question about a very basic script that I wrote,
I just want to get data from DB, put it in a variable using beanshell sampler.
and in the end of the thread group to create another bean shell and check the value of this variable.
the problem is at saving the data to a variable (var name is before), when I use the props.put command but the value still null.
Can someone please advise?
If you want to store a value into JMeter Variables you should amend your code like:
vars.put("before", String.valueOf("budgetInt"))
System.out.println("Before is " + vars.get("before"));
Once done you should be able to access the defined variable as ${before} or ${__V(before)} where required.
If you amend your property setting like:
props.put("Before", String.valueOf(budgetInt))
You should be also able to access the value as ${__P(Before,)}
Also consider switching to JSR223 Sampler and Groovy language.
var before isn't assign and therefore it's null.
You should get value as:
var before = props.get("Before");
String pass = "123456789";
vars.put("token01",pass);
System.out.println(pass);
System.out.println(token01);
the result of System.out.println(pass) is right ,it is 123456789,
but the result of token01 is null, I can not understand .
If you need to access a JMeter Variable value programatically you need to consider one of the following options:
If your variable is a String: String value = vars.get("token01")
If your variable is an Object: Object value = vars.getObject("token01")
Demo:
References:
vars.get()
vars.getObject()
You may also find Groovy Is the New Black article useful.
You have to use vars.get to access jmeter variables.
So you should use System.out.println(vars.get("token01")). Also you can use debug sampler and view results tree combination to make sure your script is working fine see How To Debug Your Apache Jmeter Scripts

I have to give dynamic values to url which takes number of users and their age , which can be selected though web page. but I want to give it in Jmeter using BeanShell PostProcessor.
Help me in this,since I'm new to Jmeter.
This is the path:
/destinations/packages?airports%5B%5D=LGW&units%5B%5D=000577%3ADESTINATION&when=29-05-2016&until=&flexibility=true&flexibleDays=3&noOfAdults=2&noOfSeniors=0&noOfChildren=1&childrenAge=3&duration=7114&first=0&searchType=search&searchRequestType=ins&sp=true&multiSelect=true
from what I've got looks like you can use CSV Data Set Config.
Create .txt file with the data you want to feed your test with;
Place the above .txt file to the folder where your .jmx file lies;
In your Test plan: Under your request sampler - place CSV Data set Config;
Then if you need to use your dynamic values within one threadgroup => refer these data as ${quanity}, ${age} in you url.
If you need to pass these values across the threadgroups => add BeanShell Assertion
Then (in the other Tread group) refer those as ${__property(_quantity)},${__property(_age)}.
Hope, it helps.
First of all you need Beanshell PreProcessor, not Beanshell PostProcessor.
All this parameters are basically name/value pairs which can be defined via HTTPSamplerBase class. HTTPSamplerBase class instance is available to Beanshell PreProcessor as sampler pre-defined variable so if you add the following code into the Beanshell PreProcessor "Script" area
sampler.addEncodedArgument("airports[]","LGW");
sampler.addEncodedArgument("units[]","000577:DESTINATION");
sampler.addEncodedArgument("when","29-05-2016");
sampler.addEncodedArgument("until","");
sampler.addEncodedArgument("flexibility", "true");
sampler.addEncodedArgument("flexibleDays","3");
sampler.addEncodedArgument("noOfAdults","2");
//etc
Your HTTP request will be populated with the values, you set via Beanshell.
JMeter Variables can be accessed via vars shorthand which stands for JMeterVariables class instance.
String airport = vars.get("airport");
sampler.addEncodedArgument("airports[]", airport);
//etc
See How to Use BeanShell: JMeter's Favorite Built-in Component article for comprehensive information on how to use Beanshell Test Elements in Jmeter.
Remember that it is recommended to avoid scripting where possible so if there is another way of implementing your task - go for it.
First, let me preface this question that I've only been using JMeter for 36 hours.
I've been able to successfully create a thread that performs a POST (json body) to generate a new record.
{
"id":1257697771,
"displayName":"TERM2",
"functionName":"f_1257697771",
"displayableSourceExpression":"TRUE",
"typeId":200,
"groupId":300,
"clobObjId":1257697772,
"typeCode":5,
..........
}
I need to take the new record's ID (1257697771) value returned in order to perform updates, get by ID, delete, etc. on this record in other threads.
After much reading, I've created a Regular Expression Extractor where:
Apply to: Main Sample Only
Field to Check: Body as Document
Reference Name: newRecord
Regular Expression: "id":(.+?)\,"displayName"
Template: $1$
Match No: 1
Default Value: NONE
At this point, I'm not sure if my Regular Expression is formatted correctly where (.+?) is valid.
Also, I'm confused if I can either just specify the new reference (newRecord) in another thread's HTTP request's Parameters or use a BeanShell Post-Processor, or a Response Assertion, etc....
There a lot of answers for the same function of "Passing". Not being a programmer, I've tried to follow the discussion "how to extract json response data in jmeter using regular expression extractor?", but I'm still not clear.
Any insight is appreciated. Thanks.
JMeter Variables are local to Thread Group, you need to convert your variable to JMeter Property.
Use:
__setProperty() function in the Thread Group where you define your newRecord variable like:
${__setProperty(newRecord,${newRecord},)}
__P() function to access property value like:
${__P(newRecord,)}
See Knit One Pearl Two: How to Use Variables in Different Thread Groups article for more detailed explanation.
Also be aware of the Function Helper Dialog as it looks like JMeter functions syntax was developed by aliens.
To pass a value between threads you need to use the jmeter property function.
In a jsr223 postprocessor using groovy the code to get the value is as follows:
def userProperty = props.get('propertyToGet')
vars.put('userProperty', String.valueOf(userProperty))
You would then access the variable in your thread using:
${userProperty}
Or you can use shorthand directly:
${__P('propertyToGet')}
Variables in jmeter are thread specific.
Thanks everyone. I was able to resolve it with your help!
In the first thread:
set the Reg Expression Extractor Regular Expression = "id":(.+?)\,"displayName"
added a Bean Assertion where Parameters = ${__setProperty(newRecord,${newRecord},)}
In the second thread:
appended the Path url with ${__P(newRecord,)}
Executing the first thread (POST) resulted an new record with a unique ID. (1257698108)
Executing the 2nd thread (GET) shows
GET http://server/.../.../.../.../1257698108
And returns the exact data generated in the first thread.
Thanks everyone for your help!
