Don't report missing "Embedded Resources" as error in jMeter - jmeter

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.

Jmeter test failed with only 5 thread

I am new into Jmeter and trying to do my first load test, When I get my data from website it is always come in .txt form and when this data I try to run my test it fails,
It's hard to say what is wrong without seeing the "Sampler result" tab screenshot for at least one failed sampler.
Going forward consider providing as much information as you can, i.e.:
Screenshot of the HTTP Request sampler
Screenshot of the View Results Tree listener demonstrating Sampler result, request data and headers and response data
At least relevant parts of the jmeter.log file, better with the debug logging for the test elements involved enabled

How to fix "is not willing to disclose that one exists" error in run record of jemeter

I'm recording a scenario in JMeter. After adding "CSV data set config" or "Regular Expression Extractor", I get this error in the response: "The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists."
so my scenario does not work.
What should i do to fix it?
Looking into the error source - it is normal basic HTTP 404 (Not Found) status.
It means that your request URL is pointing to the content which does not exist.
Inspect failing request details using View Results Tree listener and double check the URLs - most probably there are references to not existing content.
In case if main requests are fine one of embedded resources calls might fail, in order to turn off the checks for embedded resources integrity you can add the next line to user.properties file:
httpsampler.ignore_failed_embedded_resources=true
However assuming everything is fine with your JMeter script HTTP 404 errors indicate a SUT issue which needs to be reported and fixed.

Jmeter - Telling http request not to fail

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

Teamcity jmeter Performance Metrics Calculation: Check reference values

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).

Data entry through Jmeter not reflected in UI of application

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
