RE: Test Management?

2003-11-06 Thread BAZLEY, Sebastian
It's not possible to set Checkboxes to a variable using the GUI.
(obviously!)

But it might be worth editting a simple JMX script to see what happens if
you replace 
false with 
${FOLLOW} or ${__P{follow.redirect,false)} 
for example

This might work - try it and see! - but the edit might not be preserved if
the script is loaded and resaved from JMeter.

If this does not work, a workround would be to use a batch editor (sed,
Perl, awk, or whatever) to update the script just before using it.

Or you could hard-code both options in the script and use two If controllers
to switch between them. This would allow the choice to be made at run-time,
but would be awkward when there are lots of possible combinations...

By the way, Keep-alive does not work properly at present, and cannot be made
to do so until the underlying http connection code is changed from the
default.

 If you want to change lots of parameters at the same time, then use
 variables and/or functions.

So I guess I wasn't clear on this point but I am doing a lot of HTTP sample
testing. 

I've tried using variable and it's working out great. I also tried toying
more with copy and paste and for some reasons after I rebooted my machine it
started working!!!

Now, I have one last question. Is there a way to define and apply variables
that can change checkbox based parameters such as Follow Redirects and Use
KeepAlive seen in HTTTP sampler?

Thanks for the help.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I can do this as what I've been doing is to create a
xslt stylesheet out of a .jmx file and have a separate xml file with my
desired parameter such as IP address, then just run them through
transformation engine and set .jmx file to be exactly the way I want it. The
only trouble with this method is maintaining the stylesheet becomes a
hassle.

But thanks for the info. I appreciate your help.

No, there's nothing out there that I know of.

It would be nice to have the necessary tools. Your solution would be 
OK... for you. I would rather favour a Java solution to make it as 
portable as JMeter is.

Feel free to move this discussion to jmeter-dev -- it's probably a 
better place for it.

Salut,

Jordi.

How do you guys manage JMeter test files or develop them outside JMeter if
anyone's doing it? 

I'm using JMeter on OS X for functional testing (thus have various query
parameters and response assertions to manage) and it has been a painful
experience to manage 1000+ test cases using JMeter UI. For example, I can
not seem to paste any text into it or can not change all of test cases
specific parameters on the fly at the same time.
I am wondering if there's any application that you guys use that runs on OS
X or Windows that manages JMeter test suites. If there's nothing out there,
I'm thinking about developing a FileMaker Database from which I can generate
.jmx file via XML export

Re: Test Management?

2003-11-05 Thread Ryo Sode

 I just tried it under OS X 10.3 and was able to copy text from TextEdit into
 jmeter.
 
 -mj

Thanks for the reply Mark. I must say that maybe Panther implementation
specific. I am still on 10.2.6 and I don't see copied text from TextEdit (or
any other apps for that matter) pasted into JMeter.

By the way I am using version 1.9.1 of JMeter but is this the version I
should be using?

Thanks for the help guys.
