How to pass struts form parameters in Jmeter. I got in formation by using Regular Expression Extractor we can solve it but, i am not getting any information how?
I think the best way is NOT to create the requests yourself ( if that's what your doing ), but instead use jmeter as a proxy to record your web app flow. The proxy recording session will take take of boring head parameteres that, in my opinion, are too tedious to add by hand. You can find how to set up the jmeter proxy mode here and here. You can't miss it.
good luck!

I am writing UI automation script using karate DSL. In this at certain point I need to get value from network call in chrome. I want to interact with one of the webservice call in chrome devtools network tab and get the json response of that webservice.
I need this because I have to extract the value from that particular call and pass it on to the next step in my automation script.
I have seen the question related to sessionStorage(Is there a way of getting a sessionStorage using Karate DSL?) but I wonder how to do the same for network call using script command or any other way?
The first thing I would recommend is don't forget that Karate is an API testing tool at its core. Maybe all you need to do is manually make that call and get the response. You should be able to scrape the HTML and get the host and parameters needed.
That said - there's a new feature (only for Chrome) which is documented here: https://github.com/intuit/karate/tree/develop/karate-core#intercepting-http-requests - and is available in 0.9.6.RC2
It may not directly solve for what you want, but in a Karate mock, you should be able to set a value for use later e.g. by using a Java singleton or writing to a temp-file.
If there is something oddly more specific you need, please contribute code to Karate. Finally, there is an experimental way in which you can actually make raw requests to the Chrome DevTools session: https://github.com/intuit/karate/tree/develop/examples/ui-test#devtools-protocol-tips - it is for advanced users, but maybe you are one :)
I am using jmeter tool for websocket testing. I need to create multiple orders with multiple users and for that i need to set up csv data set. How can i use it in websocket sampler? As i can see that the request is sent in "Request Data" section but how should i give the variable names there and how would it read through csv?
There might be a bug in the "websocket sampler" plugin you are using. Try out WebSocket Samplers by Peter Doornbosch, current version (JMeterWebSocketSamplers-0.12.jar) doesn't seem to be having problems with parameterizing via JMeter Functions and/or Variables
You can install the plugin using JMeter Plugins Manager
I don't know which Websocket plugin you're using, but see this for best solution:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/39110121/460802
If you follow the one we advise , then just add a CSV Data Set config to your plan filling required fields:
Pay attention to Variable Names (example here myData1).
You can then use it through:
${myData1}
I have a mule flow and I want to automate the execution of the application without http listener
I want the mule application execute without enter "localhost:8081/app"
is it a way to do this?
Screenshots of the flow
As I understood from your question, I can suggest the below steps
1) Add Composite source at the start of your flow.
2) Place the existing HTTP inbound endpoint into Composite source scope.
3) As an addition, add the quartz inbound endpoint into composite source scope and configure it at what time you want to run using cron expression.
This approach enables you option to trigger the flow using either HTTP URL or automated execution through quartz component using cron expression.
Please comment on this answer if you feel my understanding is wrong.
Do you simply want the app to run at scheduled intervals? If so, I think the Quartz connector would be you best choice.
Is this the scenario you are after?
I have created a Restful Service which accepts input xml and outputs response xml. Before giving output xml it calls Web Service and gets the xml from it. I do some modifications to the xml and output it.
The client reports that when they do load testing, sometimes the response comes properly and sometimes does not from RESTful Service.
How can I do load testing with JMeter and find the loophole in it. This happens for multiple calls.
2 great references for jmeter are:
- http://blog.milamberspace.net/ if you talk french
- http://theworkaholic.blogspot.fr/ if not
But you should definitely start by reading :
- http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/index.html
Then ask questions on jmeter user list if you are stuck.

First create new test and save test scenario with JMeter Proxy (records user clicks in a browser).
Then use the recorded components to compose your actual test.
Don't forget to use JMeter Plugins (invaluable).
What's the best strategy to use when writing JMeters tests against a web application where the values of certain query-string and post variables are going to change for each run.
Quick, common, example
You go to a Web Page
Enter some information into a form
Click Save
Behind the scenes, a new record is entered in the database
You want to edit the record you just entered, so you go to another web page. Behind the scenes it's passing the page a parameter with the Database ID of the row you just created
When you're running step 5 of the above test, the page parameter/Database ID is going to change each time.
The workflow/strategy I'm currently using is
Record a test using the above actions
Make a note of each place where a query string variable may change from run to run
Use a XPath or Regular Expression Extractor to pull the value out of a response and into a JMeter variable
Replace all appropriate instances of the hard-coded parameter with the above variable.
This works and can be automated to an extent. However, it can get tedious, is error prone, and fragile. Is there a better/commonly accepted way of handling this situation? (Or is this why most people just use JMeter to play back logs? (-;)
Sounds to me like your on the right track. The best that can be achieved by JMeter is to extract page variables with a regular expression or xpath post processor. However your absolutely correct in that this is not a scalable solution and becomes increasingly tricky to maintain or grow.
If you've reached is point then you may want to consider a tool which is more specialised for this sort of problem. Have a look web testing tool such as Watir, it will automatically handle changing post parameters; but you would still need to extract parameters if you need to do a database update but using Watir allows for better code reuse making the problem less painful.
We have had great success in testing similar scenarios with JMeter by storing parameters in JMeter Variables within a JDBC assertion. We then do our http get/post and use a BSF Assertion and javascript do complex validation of the response. Hope it helps
