Jmeter - values from Regular expression extractor is not getting written in the file - jmeter

I have added a regular expression as below in order to extract the response value inside the xml.
p400="http://newman.services.premium.hellocorp.com">(.+?)</p400:newman></soapenv:Body>
the reference name is "output_xml"
I have added a simple data writer as well and added "output_xml" to the sample variables in Jmeter properties file also. Still I am not able to see the xml getting written in the file.
Please advice me on this. Thanks!

I'm not sure, that it's possible with simple file writer, try FlexibleFileWriter plugin http://jmeter-plugins.org/wiki/FlexibleFileWriter/?utm_source=jpgc&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=FlexibleFileWriter
And have you checked, that this extractor works on your data?
Try to add Debug Postprocessor (ensure that "JMeter variables" is set true) and View Results Tree elements to you project and inspect variables.

The given xml formats
p400="http://newman.services.premium.hellocorp.com">(.+?)</p400:newman></soapenv:Body>
You need to update the following regex formats to extract the response values

How to replace a string in a variable that came from a CSV Data Config?

In my JMeter test plan, I have two CSV Data Config elements.
CSV Data Config-element-requestBodies: This CSV Data Config element has a variable named "requestBody". In the corresponding CSV file, each line has an XML request with a placeholder string.
CSV Data Config-element-subject: variables. This CSV Data Config element has a variable name "subjectDn". In the corresponding CSV file, each line has a distinguished name (DN) for a user.
The "requestBody" variable will contain an XML request from the CSV file that has the request bodies, with a placeholder string and I want to replace that placeholder with the contents of the "subjectDn" variable, and then use the modified "requestBody" variable in the HTTP Request element.
In other words:
Replace the placeholder string in the ${requestBody} with the value in the ${subjectDn}, then
Use the modified ${requestBody} in the HTTP Request
How can I do that? What is the easiest/least overhead way of doing that?
I've tried using the "__evalVar" function (see https://am.net/lib/tools/NetworkManagement/apache-jmeter-2.8/printable_docs/usermanual/functions.html), but it looks like that is not able to do the replacement when the string is from a CSV file?
Thanks in advance!
Jim
Wrap your ${requestBody} into __eval() function, it will allow JMeter to resolve JMeter Functions and Variables which are present as "placeholders" in the CSV file to their respective values.
${__eval(${requestBody})}
Also if you consider scripting to accomplish your requirements be informed that starting from JMeter 3.1 it's recommended to use JSR223 Test Elements and Groovy language. More information: Apache Groovy: What Is Groovy Used For?
I was able to get this woring by using a Beanshell pre-processor and some Java code that does var.get() and then Java String replaceall() and then var.put().

How to write assertion for dynamically change dropdown value in Jmeter

I have prepared my script using Correlation-regular expression. How can I provide the assertion for account which is selected from .csv file. Here the account selection is stored in a regular expression as follows.
CSV_Data_set_Config, CSV_File_info, Account_Selection_From_UI, Regular_Expression, Sample_Thread_Group, Response_Assertion
Your screenshots are very beautiful but you need to specify what do you want to compare with what in order to get a comprehensive answer.
If you need to compare this 0048852 with the value from the CSV file you need to:
Extract this 0048852 using Regular Expression Extractor or Boundary Extractor
Add Response Assertion as a child of the request and configure it like:
For more detailed response you need to share at least partial HTML code of the page where the dropdown is selected showing the dropdown markup and indicate what exact value you need to "assert"

how to save whole response message in jmeter

I am receiving below response in jmeter-
[{"Status":"Failed","ErrorDesc":"Duplicate Transaction Id","Amount":"23","CorporateID":"aaa","StatusCode":"ERR0DUP","TransactionReferenceNumber":"1111"}]
I need to save this whole response message.
I tried by using listner,and using csv file as well but only b able to save response like - OK,true
Please help me to save whole response as it is.
You could use the Save the Response to a File Sampler with following configuration
Ensure "Don't add number to prefix" check box is not checked
Set the Minimum Length of sequence number (e.g 6)
You can try with following options for unique file names
Check the Add timestamp
Use ${__threadNum} and/or ${__threadGroupName} fields with file name
response-${__threadGroupName}-{__threadNum}.json
If you want to save response into a variable just use Boundary Extractor with empty left and right boundaries or Regular Expression Extractor and (?s)(^.*) regular expression, see The Boundary Extractor vs. the Regular Expression Extractor in JMeter article for more details to learn more about differences of these two guys.
Example setup:
in the above setup the whole response will be saved into a JMeter Variable and you will be able to refer it as ${response} where required
If you want to save response into a file - go for Save Responses to a file listener, add it as a child of the request which returns the response and configure it like:
the above configuration will store the whole response of the parent sampler into response.txt file in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation

On using a CSV config with JSON data the quotes are read incorrectly for the key value pair

I have a POST data from CSV used in excel
{"Name":"","Token":-1,"TimeScheduleToken":"1","AccessRule":[{"ObjectToken":"528","ObjectName":"Common_ wash_Room_Exit","RuleToken":"528","RuleType":2,"StartDate":null,"EndDate":null,"ArmingRightsId":null,"ControlModeId":null}]}
When performing a post-execution the JSON data in the request is not as same as from the CSV. Find the request in the image
Quotes given for the key value pair is doubled up and showed in the request. How to resolve this, kindly suggest
Vittal,
I have tried to reproduce your issue in JMeter 3.3 and noticed that its working fine. Please find below the settings that you need to do in 'CSV Data Config' element.
Moreover, I would recommend that when you are creating any csv file for the data then open the notepad and enter your data and then save it as .csv file to avoid any unnecessary elements/characters in the data.
You can also refer to the blog post to get more information on API load testing using JMeter: JMeter Load Testing Against APIs
I have no idea regarding how you're getting these double quotation marks, however here is how you can remove them in the runtime:
Add JSR223 PreProcessor as a child of the HTTP Request sampler
Put the following code into "Script" area:
def originalData = sampler.getArguments().getArgument(0).getValue()
def normalizedData = originalData.replaceAll("\"\"","\"")
sampler.getArguments().removeAllArguments()
sampler.addNonEncodedArgument("",normalizedData,"")
sampler.setPostBodyRaw(true)
That's it, the JSR223 PreProcessor will replace all occurrences of double quotation marks with single quotation marks.
sampler is a shorthand to parent sampler class implementation, in case of HTTP Request sampler it would be HTTPSamplerProxy, see class documentation for all available functions and properties.
See Apache Groovy - Why and How You Should Use It article to learn more about using Groovy scripting in JMeter tests.

Fetch Javascript variable in source section using Jmeter

I have a series of interconnected pages to test using JMeter. The problem is that the initial page has a Javascript variable in source section which is more of a session variable. This variable is passed in the URL for subsequent pages.
So basically I would like to fetch this javascript variable when I load the initial page from the source section and pass it to next URL(s).
Is there a way I can achieve this using JMeter.
Are you able to see the session variable in the response of initial page?
(in view result tree listener)
If yes, then correlate this value and pass the variable in to next request (use regular expression extractor for fetching the value, still if you are finding some issue in correlating the value than please share the response of first request over here so that I can provide you regx for that)
People mostly Regular Expression Extractor to fetch dynamic values from previous responses, in general the process looks like:
Add Regular Expression Extractor as a child of the request which returns desired data
Use Perl5-style regular expression to match what you're looking for
Provide a template to choose match group - ususally $1$ if you looking for a single value
Provide a reference name to refer the extracted value, i.e. foo
Use extracted value as ${foo} where required
You can visualise JMeter Variables using Debug Sampler and View Results Tree listener combination.
The easiest way to debug your regular expressions is using View Results Tree listener in "RegExp Tester mode"
See How to debug your Apache JMeter script article for more information on troubleshooting your JMeter test.
