i have a test plan in which
distribution of throughput controllers is
post and get 1 => 10%
post and get 2 => 40%
post and get 3 => 25%
post => 25%
if i run the test plan with loopcount = forever then it is working fine with single thread or multiple theads
but if i run the test plan with loopcount = 1 and threads = 1 it is not even starting the test.
How to fix it?
1 thread to 1 loop means only 1 execution with 1 thread where you want that to split the execution between different percentage. This is not possible. But, loop is forever, 1 thread can run many iteration and execution the request based on the defined percentage. This is possible.
So, options are loop forever or increase number of threads. In your case minimum 6 thread will work for 1 iteration. Increase thread for multiple execution based on percentage.
Hope this helps.

I am using Hangfire in ASP.NET Core with a server that has 20 workers, which means 20 jobs can be enqueued at the same time.
What I need is to enqueue them one by one with 2 minutes delay between each one and another. Each job can take 1-45 minutes, but I don't have a problem running jobs concurrently, but I do have a problem starting 20 jobs at the same time. That's why changing the worker count to 1 is not practical for me (this will slow the process a lot).
The idea is that I just don't want 2 jobs to run at the same second since this may make some conflicts in my logic, but if the second job started 2 minutes after the first one, then I am good.
How can I achieve that?
You can use BackgroundJob.Schedule() to run your job run at a specific time:
BackgroundJob.Schedule(() => Console.WriteLine("Hello"), dateTimeToExecute);
Based on that set a date for the first job to execute, and then increase this date to 2 minutes for each new job.
Something like this:
var dateStartDate = DateTime.Now;
foreach (var j in listOfjobsToExecute)
{
BackgroundJob.Schedule(() => j.Run(), dateStartDate);
dateStartDate = dateStartDate.AddMinutes(2);
}

I'm trying to get an increase in delay/pause and load over time in jmeter load testing while keeping the sequence constant. For example -
Initially - 10 samples (of 2 get requests - a,b,a,b,a,b...)
Then after 10 samples, a delay/pause of 10 secs and then 20 samples (a,b,a,b,a,b...)
After the 20 samples, another delay/pause of 20 secs; then 30 samples (a,b,a,b,a,b...)
And so on.
Constraints here being -
Getting exact number of samples
Getting the desired delay
The order of requests should be maintained
The critical section controller helps with maintaining the order of threads but only in a normal thread group. So if I try the ultimate thread group to get the desired variable delay and load, the order and number of samples go haywire.
I've tried the following-
Run test group consecutively
Flow control action
Throughput controller
Module controller
Interleave controller
Synchronizing timer (with and without flow control)
Add think times to children
Is there any way to get this output in jMeter? Or should I just opt for scripting?
Add User Defined Variables and set the following variables there:
samples=10
delay=10
Add Thread Group and specify the required number of threads and iterations
Add Loop Controller under the Thread Group and set "Loop Count" to ${samples}. Put your requests under the Loop Controller
Add JSR223 Sampler and put the following code into Script area:
def delay = vars.get('delay') as long
sleep(delay * 1000)
def new_delay = delay + 10
vars.put('delay', new_delay as String)
def samples = vars.get('samples') as int
def new_samples = samples + 10
vars.put('samples', new_samples as String)
I am using parallel processing.
CALL FUNCTION 'ZABC' STARTING NEW TASK taskname
DESTINATION IN GROUP srv_grp PERFORMING come_back ON END OF TASK
EXPORTING
...
EXCEPTIONS
...
.
I am calling this FM inside a loop. sometimes, my records are skipped. I am not getting a desired output. Sometimes 2000 records are processed and sometimes 1000. The numbers are varying. what can be the problem ? Can you provide me some cases where records can be skipped in parallel processing ?
See the example code SAP provides: https://help.sap.com/viewer/753088fc00704d0a80e7fbd6803c8adb/7.4.16/en-US/4892082ffeb35ed2e10000000a42189d.html
Look at how they handle the resource exceptions. A resource exception means that you tried to start a new aRFC but there were no more processes available. Your program has to handle these cases. Without handling these cases the entries will be skipped. The normal handling is to just wait a little time for some of the active processes to finish, in the example program:
WAIT UNTIL rcv_jobs >= snd_jobs
UP TO 5 SECONDS.
gv_semaphore = 0.
" your internal table size.
DESCRIBE TABLE lt_itab LINES lv_lines.
LOOP AT lt_itab INTO ls_itab.
" parallel proc. -->>
CALL FUNCTION 'ZABC' STARTING NEW TASK taskname
DESTINATION IN GROUP srv_grp PERFORMING come_back ON END OF TASK
EXPORTING
...
EXCEPTIONS
...
.
" <<--
ENDLOOP.
" wait until all parallel processes have terminated. **
WAIT UNTIL gv_semaphore = lv_lines.
NOTE: You should check total parallel process count. There should be some upper limits for opened threads.
Thanks.
I am trying to send an HTTP request via JMeter. I have created a thread group with a loop count of 25. I have a ramp up period of 120 and number of threads set to 30. Within the thread group, I have 20 HTTP Requests. I am a little confused as to how JMeter runs these requests. Do each of the 20 requests within a thread group run in a single thread, and each loop over a thread group runs concurrently on a different thread? Or do each of the 20 requests run in different threads as and when they are available.
My other question is, Over each loop, I want to vary the body of the post data that is being sent via the HTTP request. Is it possible to pass the post data body via a file instead of inserting the data into the JMeter Body Data Tab as show below:
However, instead of doing that, I want to define some kind of variable that picks a file based on iteration of the threadgroup that is running, for example, if it is looping over the thread group the second time, i want to call test2.txt, if the third time test3.txt etc and these text files will contain different post data. Could anyone tell me if this is possible with JMeter please and if so, how would I go about doing this.
Point 1 - JMeter concurrency
JMeter starts with 1 thread and spawns more threads as per ramp-up set. In your case (30 threads and 120 seconds ramp-up) another thread is being added each 4 seconds. Each thread executes 20 requests and if there is another loop - starts over, if there is no loop - the threads shuts down. To control load and concurrency JMeter provides 2 options:
Synchronizing Timer - pause all threads till specified threshold is reached and then release all of them at the same time
Constant Throughput Timer - to specify the load in requests per minute.
Point 2 - Send file instead of text
You can replace your request body with __fileToString function. If you want to parametrize it you can use nested function to provide current iteration - see below.
Point 3 - adding iteration as a parameter
JMeter provides 2 options on how you can increment a counter each loop
Counter config element - starts from specified value and gets incremented by specified value each time it's called.
__counter function - start from 1 and gets incremented by 1 each time it's being called. Can be "per-user" or "global"
See How to Use JMeter Functions post series for comprehensive information on above and more JMeter functions.
I have prepared a script in jmeter with ultimate thread group setting as start thread count:10, Intial delay:0, Startup Time:10, Hold Load:30, Shutdown:10. I have added aggregate report as listener. When i execute the script, samples# go above 10 for each samples. Does this means more than 10 users are entering.
Nope. You will have only 10 (concurrent) users. Jmeter never adds more threads than what we mention in the file.
This is what happening - Once an user finishes the test or a loop, as you had mentioned the test should run for 30 seconds - the same test is repeated again for the user. It will stop automatically after 30 seconds. This is why you might see more than 10 login requests or something similar.
If you do not want your test to behave this way, use Simple thread group and update loop count as 1.
