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.

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 am using JMeter for performance testing. I have a set of users in a .csv file and am using csv config element.
Even if the login failed, it is showing that the request ran successfully. What is the way to get log data for users with wrong password during testing?
Go to Edit > Add > Assertions > Response Assertion
In response assertion you can assert by checking the response code, message and header.
If the assertion doesn't match then request will fail.
You have to add assertion to validate the response, so that if login fails it notifies the request as fail in test results.
JMeter automatically treats HTTP Status Codes below 400 as successful, it doesn't do any checks against response and knows nothing regarding login request being successful.
You can use Response Assertion in order to verify whether your user is logged in, i.e.
Check that text like Welcome, ${username} is present
Check that Logout link is present
Check that message regarding wrong credentials is absent
See How to Use JMeter Assertions in Three Easy Steps article for more details on conditionally failing JMeter samplers basing on various criteria.
If you're looking for a way to store username/password combinations somewhere so you could tell which ones were "bad" I believe the easiest option is using Sample Variables property.
My application returns the error code 40003 when a I try to signin indicating that user already exists, but this is desirable for my application. So, I do not want to see my listener failing in red. Is it possible to write something that converts the listener response to green even if response code is an error.
Add Response Assertion as a child of the HTTP Request sampler and check Ignore Status box.
You can also add an extra check to ensure that response code is 40003like
See How to Use JMeter Assertions in Three Easy Steps guide for more information on conditionally setting requests and responses status using Assertions.
I have given an incorrect credentials in for my login request using the GET function. But Jmeter shows that sampler as passed. Wondering on how this could happen.
Even after adding the Post processor - Stop Test option the sampler keeps on executing the complete thread count. Kindly help sorting out this issue.
You need to use a Response Assertion for this and put a String that identifies the login process as successful.
As long as application returns a valid Response Code (200) JMeter cannot guess that this response says "Invalid Credentials", you have to tell it that if page contains for example "Invalid Credentials" then it means response is in error.
JMeter considers a page as failed (if not assertion is set) only if the HTTP Response code if different from 2XX , 3XX.
