I have local Header manger for each request. I also have Global one. [Please look at the image] I want to remove local Header manager for all requests.
I tried it by creating a preprocessor and writing "sampler.getHeaderManager().removeHeaderNamed("HTTP Header manager");" inside it. But, It's not working. Because of this, It cannot authenticate credentials.
I also tried "sampler.getHeaderManager().remove(0)". This didn't work too. remove(1) ignores the global header manager.
Here is my suggestion. Care must be taken care while following the below steps. I follow this trick to replace dynamic values.
Take a backup of your JMeter script.
Open the script in the notepad++.
Find the Header Manager tags. It goes something like this
<hashTree><HeaderManager guiclass="HeaderPanel" testclass="HeaderManager" testname="HTTP Header Manager" enabled="true"><collectionProp name="HeaderManager.headers"/></HeaderManager><hashTree/>
If you have many Header Manager Name and its name unique, you can use regular expression in notepad++.
Reg ex syntax in notepad++
<hashTree><HeaderManager guiclass="HeaderPanel" testclass="HeaderManager" testname="(.+)" enabled="true"><collectionProp name="HeaderManager.headers"/>
</HeaderManager><hashTree/>
Replace it with empty value using Find and Replace.
While replacing, please take care of <hashtree></hashtree> tags, any conflicts will result in corruption in the script. Use Test Plan Check Tool plugin to validate your test plan. Please visit this link to know more https://jmeter-plugins.org/wiki/TestPlanCheckTool/
Save it and open in JMeter.

Give your "global" header manager a different name
Run your test via Taurus tool. Taurus naturally supports JMeter tests execution and adds some extra features on top, for instance Modifications for Existing Scripts. Assuming your test is called test.jmx the relevant Taurus config file will be as simple as:
---
execution:
scenario:
script: test.jmx
modifications:
disable: HTTP Header Manager
If you save it as i.e. test.yml and execute Taurus as:
bzt test.yml -gui
a JMeter instance will launch and open your script with Header Manager elements disabled.
See Navigating your First Steps Using Taurus article for more information on the approach.
Currently it is not possible to fully remove test elements programmatically, you can only remove individual headers. Going forward you might want to untick Capture HTTP Headers box under HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder in order to avoid this situation:

Is the URL not available across feature files anymore?
As example, in our main feature files we would set the background as such:
Background:
* url url
* header Authorization = token
* def baseUrl = 'care/v1.1/account/'
Where the url is coming from our javascript config file. We have multiple environments we run our Karate suite on, and have config files that point to each of them, therefore the url is unique per environment. Then in the required scenarios there would be a call to a "helper" feature file. Inside that feature file there would be no background and only 1 scenario. That scenario would look like:
* path baseUrl
Given path 'MTYzODJAQDg=/call/add'
That would work fine with Karate 1.20. Now on Karate 1.3.0.RC2 that setup is failing. It's like the url variable is not being shared or something with the helper feature files. The scenarios that call helper feature files will now fail.
I've been able to "fix this", by adding the same url declaration that is in the main feature files, to our helper feature files, essentially so all feature files have it.
My question is, is this now the expected behaviour in the new version.
First, path is not a "variable" and it is NOT designed to work when you call anything.
I have 2 suggestions.
Set your environment-specific config in karate-config.js. That is what it is designed for, and you can very well call a feature to do it. See karate.callSingle().
Use variables to "pass around" information which "called" features can use. Or when you make a call, you can "return" values that can be used by subsequent steps.
I think that trying to use a "call" instead of pre-setting variables is the source of your troubles. If you need to switch the url when you call something, just use a variable.
Adding the url declaration (* url url) to the "helper" feature files, essentially having it in every feature file, will "fix" the "problem".
i have an app that can show many popups in various scenarios, and i would like to verify their text using XCUITest. but would like to be able to do that with no effort for multiple text configurations. for multiple languages for instance.
Is there a way to pass arguments through the .xctestrun file or through the "xcodebuild test-without-building" command? some way to pass the dictionary, or a file that i can parse at the beginning of the XCTestCase to know the correct text values to predict? preferably without the need to rebuild the project.
Found the answer.
The test host (and your XCTestCases) can view its arguments same as the test target, using NSProcessInfo.processInfo.environment and NSProcessInfo.processInfo.arguments.
Using the scheme for "Test" in XCode, you can add arguments and environment variables that the test host itself can read. The test host can read these by using the process info as mentioned above.
Another way to do this would be by editing the xctestrun file for your test. In it, you can add the key CommandLineArguments as an array of strings for the process info arguments, or add EnvironmentVariables as a dictionary from key to string value.
An easy way to go about adding the arguments/variables to the xctestrun file manually would be to first add them to the Test scheme in XCode, see the changes to the xctestrun file, and modify them accordingly.
other xctestrun variables are described in https://www.manpagez.com/man/5/xcodebuild.xctestrun/
A dynamic value that appears in the subsequent web requests appears in the Request Header throughout the script. I am unable to correlate this value as it is not available in response header / body section. How can I now correlate this value?
I have tried recording using VUGEN - HTML & URL Mode. I have also used Fiddler as well as HAR files exported via Chrome Developer Tools. None of them have any additional request/responses that could have been potentially missed while recording with VUGen or other tools.
The dynamic value appears in the Request Header like this :
Reference:
https://*****/suite/sites/ecase-case-worker/page/home/start-process/iUBVQU4qoHEAl9UkPVyXKjTxMt3bz-olj7yCJ6dulSOHbmIIDal?parameters=**855b2a7b-a175-49e6-9ee0-7b7f37667197**
The "855b2a...." value appears throughout the script in different places like this below :-
web_custom_request("iUBVQU4qoHEAl9UkPVyXKjTxMt3bz-olj7yCJ6dulSOHbmIIDal",
"URL=https://****/suite/rest/a/sites/latest/ecase-case-worker/page/home/startProcess/iUBVQU4qoHEAl9UkPVyXKjTxMt3bz-olj7yCJ6dulSOHbmIIDal?cacheKey=**855b2a7b-a175-49e6-9ee0-7b7f37667197**",
I have manually verified in the application that it this value keeps changing every single time "Create application" link is clicked. Is there a way to capture this dynamically changing value?
If this is not sent to you from the server, as a correlated value, then what remains is that the value is generated on the client, likely as a part of a JavaScript function output.
Speak with the developer of your application about the location of the generation of this value. If it is locally generated then simply execute the JavaScript inside of your HTTP script or reproduce the algorithm in C for native inclusion in a C HTTP virtual user. You have some alternate paths as well, which includes the newer JavaScript based virtual user, Truclient (which runs a full browser), Citrix, RDP or GUI virtual users.
With Truclient, Citrix, RDP or GUI you are simply going to run a full browser and inherit the JavaScript execution and inclusion of the key value as a part of full stack execution.
The Fiddler recording helped in identifying the correlation value as it was hidden in one of the EXTRARES references, which wasn't captured anywhere by the VUGen. The request had to be subsequently added manually into the script to pick up the dynamic value in it's response.
I have a large and deep test and am using jmeter 2.1.3.
I have a default http header manager at the top level and inherited for all the samplers below.
Deep in the test structure i need to make an http request and remove all the headers inherited from the parent manager.
The docs say this is achieved by creating a child manager for this sample and declaring the header with a null value, however this just sends a null value over the air and doesnt strip the header completely from the request.
Any ideas? I really dont want to create a child manager for every sample just to over come this issue as im often tweaking the values to 99% of the samples
Found a cool way to sort it, as i just couldn't get the header manager to do what i think its meant to from the docs. I added a BeanShell PreProcessor to the sampler i didn't want an inherited header to be used at all with the following:
sampler.getHeaderManager().removeHeaderNamed("Authorization");
Adding this as a child will only make the script affect the current sampler and would not impact the default if it was set.
In your header manager at the top level, you could set the values as a variable, then later change that variable in a beanshell script.
Or else you can use
add bean shell postprocessor add the below code
import org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.control.Header;
sampler.getHeaderManager().remove(1);

This doesn't seem like a situation that is unique to me, but I haven't been able to find an answer anywhere.
I am attempting to build Jmeter scripts that can be executed both in the GUI and command line. The command line is going to need values to pass into the test cases, but the same test cases need to be executed via the GUI as well. I initially had separate scripts for GUI and command line, but it seemed redundant to have the same test cases duplicated with just a couple parameters changed.
For example, the GUI test case has the Web Server name set to:
<!-- ${ENV} set in User Defined Variables -->
<stringProp name="HTTPSampler.domain">${ENV}</stringProp>
The command line test case uses the following for parameters:
<!-- Define via command line w/ -JCMDDEV -->
<stringProp name="HTTPSampler.domain">${__P(CMDENV)}</stringProp>
Both work for their served purpose, but I want to combine the tests to be easier maintained and to have the ability to run them via GUI or command line.
I got passed one hurdle, which was combining the GUI Variables to be used as well as Properties for the command line by setting the User Defined Variable ${ENV} as the following:
Name Value
----- --------
ENV ${__P(ENV,dev.address.com)}
I am now able to run the same test case via GUI and command line (defining a new environment with -JENV)
I'm not sure if I'm overthinking this, but I want to be able to add a variable to the property default in order to avoid typos, etc while handing it off to others. I tried a few variations that didn't seem to work:
Name Value
----- --------
ENV ${__P(ENV,${__V(DEV)})}
DEV dev.address.com
This gave me the following Request:
POST http://DEV/servlet
Instead of:
POST http://dev.address.com/servlet
I also tried using:
${__P(ENV,${DEV})}
${__property(ENV,,${__V(DEV)})}
${__property(ENV,,${DEV})}
I was looking into Jmeter nested variables, but it didn't provide any working solutions.
So to my main question, am I able to use variables as the property defaults. If so, how would I achieve that?
I found a way around this. It's not exactly how I wanted it, but it could work for right now.
I really wanted to keep everything in one place where people had to make edits, but I was able to get the User Defined Variables to work by adding the ${__P(ENV,${DEV})} to the HTTP Request Defaults Web Server Name instead of pre-defining it as a variable.
Now there are two Config Elements that potentially need to be edited with GUI execution, but I think it should work out better in the long run.
Yes, seems the author is right - looks like nested variable can't be evaluated in JMeter from the same variables scope.
I've created a different "User Defined Variables" set, added there "defaultValue" - and after that this option works:
${__P(myProperty, ${defaultValue})}
