I have created a webtest which is a series of web service requests. My data source contains a list of mobile numbers and these mobile numbers can be of two types - A and B. The problem is that data source contains the mix of A and B. When the test runs, it loads one mobile number from the data source (XML file). I want to determine when the test is running as to what is the type of the mobile number (A or B)! Because depending on that I will be sending appropriate message to the web server.
It is however possible for me to create a text file which contains key value pairs (mobile number, type) before running the tests. However adding a plugin which reads the whole file and then finds the mobile number type will be too slow. Is it possible to have these mappings stored in memory during the entire duration of the test? So that I can just query them?
Thanks

Instead of using the XML file as the data source, use your new text file as the data source.
For example, if your data source is DataSource1 and your file is numbers.csv, and you have columns mobile number and type then in your test you can refer to the following context parameters:
DataSource1.numbers#csv.mobile#number
DataSource1.numbers#csv.type
Use a pair of String Comparison Conditional Rules to decide which request to execute depending on the value of DataSource1.numbers#csv.type.

How to handle the remove flight booking in webtours? It came to my mind that if I wanna run the test with 3 virtual users and how they supposed to delete the booking if the information down here (refer below) are unique for each virtual user? Does any of these variables below need to be parameterized or need to apply correlation?
If there are multiple flight id to be deleted, we can create a CSV file having those ids
and use a while loop controller to delete each of them.

As you said, it will differ for a different user, you can store each value from the response of each user(extract value using regex) and pass them in delete call.

I don't know what "webtours" is, however there is one "golden" rule: each and every parameter which is dynamic needs to be correlated.
If you don't have any idea regarding which ones are dynamic - record the same action one more time using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and compare the generated requests, parameter values (or even names) which differ needs to be correlated.
Another approach is to inspect the previous response(s) using View Results Tree listener and look if the data is present there

In Eloqua, can you send out an email to a contact list but version the "hero" image headline for each segment using dynamic content blocks?
And then can you do the reverse, have the main image remain the same, and dynamically populate products below that they've purchased in the past?
For scenario 1, yes that is possible out of the box.
Scenario 2 however is a bit more complicated and would generally require a 3rd party tool to provide this type of dynamic code generation based upon a lookup table (in this case a line item inventory or purchases). Because a contact could have zero or more products (commonly as individual records in a CDO), you would generally need to aggregate or count the number of related records, and then generate your HTML table and formatting around those record values, and be contextually aware if it is the first or last record (to begin and close the table). Dynamic content does not have mathematical functions and would not be able to count those related records - this is something usually provided by a B2C system like SFMC using ampscript or dynamically generated through custom code and sent through a transactional SMTP service. You could have multiple dynamic content on top of each other, but your biggest limitation becomes the field merge, with only lets you select a record based upon earliest/last creation date, or last modified. This is not suitable if you have more than 2 records. A third party service that provides a cloud content module for your email is your best bet.
I want to see the difference of Delivery Class 'A' and 'C'. C for data entered only by the customer, but how can I see it on the code?
I created two tables of type 'A' and 'C'. I add data with ABAP code. I thought I couldn't add data to the table I created with C, but they both work the same.
For A Type:
DATA wa_ogr LIKE ZSGT_DELIVCLS2.
wa_ogr-ogrenci_no = 1.
wa_ogr-ogrenci_adi = 'Seher'.
INSERT ZSGT_DELIVCLS2 FROM wa_ogr.
For C Type:
DATA wa_ogr LIKE ZSGT_DELIVERYCLS.
wa_ogr2-ogrenci_no = 1.
wa_ogr2-ogrenci_adi = 'Seher'.
INSERT ZSGT_DELIVERYCLS FROM wa_ogr2.
Datas get trouble-free when I check with debugging.
Is there a live demo where I can see the working logic of C? Can you describe Delivery Class C better?
Tables with delivery class C are not "customer" tables, they are "customizing" tables. "Customizing" is SAPspeak for configuration settings. They are supposed to contain system-wide or client-wide settings which are supposed to be set in the development system and then get transported into the production system using a customizing transport. But if that's actually the case or not depends on what setting you choose when generating a maintenance dialog with transaction SE54. It's possible to have customizing tables which are supposed to be set in the production system directly without a transport request.
Tables with delivery class A are supposed to contain application data. Data which is created and updated by applications as part of their every day routine business processes. There should usually be no reason to transport that data (although you can do that by manually adding the table name and keys to a transport request). Those applications can be SAP standard applications, customer-developed applications or both.
There is also the delivery class L which is supposed to be used for short-living temporary data as well as the classes G, E, S and W which should only be used by SAP on tables they created.
But from the perspective of an ABAP program, there is no difference between these settings. Any ABAP keywords which read or write database tables work the same way regardless of delivery class.
But there are some SAP standard tools which treat these tables differently. One important one are client copies:
Data in delivery class C tables will always be copied.
Data in delivery class A tables is only copied when desired (it's a setting in the copy profile). You switch it off to create an empty client with all the settings of an existing client or to synchronize customizing settings between two existing clients without overwriting any of the application data. You switch it on if you want to create a copy of your application data, for example if you want a backup or want to perform a destructive test on real data.
Data in delivery class L tables doesn't get copied.
For more information on delivery classes, check the documentation.
I am trying to write a custom outputter for U-SQL that writes rows to individual files based on the data in one column.
For example, if the column has a date "2016-01-01", it writes that row a file with that name, and a the next row to a file with the value in the same column.
I am aiming to do this by using the Data Lake Store SDK within the outputter, which creates a client and uses the SDK functions to write to individual files.
Is this a viable and possible solution?
I have seen that the function to be overriden for outputters is
public override void Output (IRow row, IUnstructuredWriter output)
In which the IUnstructuredWriter is casted to a StreamWriter(I saw one such example), so I assume this IUnstructuredWriter is passed to this function by the U-SQL script. So that doesn't leave for me any control over this what is passed here, also it will remain constant for all rows and can't change.
This is currently not possible but we are working on this functionality in reply to this frequent customer request. For now, please add your vote to the request here: https://feedback.azure.com/forums/327234-data-lake/suggestions/10550388-support-dynamic-output-file-names-in-adla

I am working to create a Java based RESTful API that uses Spring MVC.
Now for some of the API endpoints-- multiple different parameters are required... I am not talking about a list of values-- more like parameter1, parameter2, parameter3, parameter4 and so on-- where all the 4 (or more) parameters are of different data types as well.
How do I design the API endpoint URL for the above scenario, eg for 4 separate input parameters? Is there any recommended way/best practice for doing this? Or do I simply concatenate the 4 values, with ach pair of values separated by a delimiter like "/"?
EDIT from user comment:
Example: I have to retrieve a custom object(a 'file') based on 4 input parameters--(Integer) userid, (Integer) fileid, (String) type, and (String) usertype. Should I simply create a REST Endpoint like "getfile/{userid}/{fileid}/{type}/{usertype}-- or is there a better (or recommended way) to construct such REST endpoints?
In REST start by thinking about the resource and coming up with immutable permalinks (doesn't change)to identify that resource.
So, in your example (in comment), you said you want to retrieve a file resource for a user and type (file type or user type?)
So, start with just enough information to identify the resource. If the id is unique, then this is enough to identify the resource regardless of the user who owns the file:
/files/{fileId}
That's also important as the url if a file could change owners - remember we want to identify the resource with just the components needed so it can be a permalink.
You could also list the files for a specific user:
/users/{userId}/files/
The response would contain a list of files and each of those items in the list would contain links to the files (/files/{fileId})
If for some reason the file id is not unique but is unique only in the context of a user (files don't change owners and id increments within a user - wierd) then you would need these components to identify the resource:
/users/{userId}/files/{fileId}
Also note the order based on the description. In that wierd case, we said the files are logically contained and IDed by the user and that's also the containment in the url structure.
Hope that helps.
A GET request to file/{usertype}/{user}/{type}/{fileid} sounds good
