Hi, I'm about to finish work on "editable checkboxes" UI element in https://github.com/apache/jmeter/pull/5944 It fixes 20year old bug https://github.com/apache/jmeter/issues/1252 :)
It enables users to configure expressions in UI for cases when checkboxes were used previously. For example, checkboxes on Test Plan element, "use keepalive" in HTTP Sampler, and so on. It would be great if somebody else could review and/or test the feature. Even though the change might look non-trivial, I think it could be polished before 5.6 (which is long overdue). ---- Each JCheckBox needs to be migrated individually, however, the migration is not complicated. Here's a commit that updates TestPlan UI: https://github.com/apache/jmeter/pull/5944/commits/b6468e1960dee9ddced7e43636dba0cf5528f078 For now I migrated checkboxes on Test Plan and some of checkboxes on HTTP Sampler. ---- The change makes it easier to create programmatic test scripts as well. For instance, here's how BeanShellSampler can be populated: val sampler = BeanShellSampler().apply { name = "BeanShell Sampler" props { it[script] = """ResponseMessage="COUNTER=${"$"}{__counter(FALSE)}"""" it[filename] = "" it[parameters] = "" } TestElementPropertyTransformer.USE_FUNCTIONS.visit(this) isRunningVersion = true } val result = sampler.sample(null) Vladimir
