Dear JMeter Users,
Thank you again, sebb. I made a scoping error in my test plan and then described the
problem incorrectly. In the original example test plan, I did not indent the If
Controller line far enough to indicate its actual position in the hierarchy. My
apologies!
Compare the two test plans below.
In this test plan, the If Controller never evaluates to True, and HTTP Request 2 is
not executed. The If Controller is a child element of HTTP Request 1.
Simple Controller
HTTP Request 1
If Controller (never evaluates to True)
HTTP Request 2
HTTP Request 3
The user manual states in Section 4.2.2, "Logic Controllers", that "Logic Controllers
may have as child elements . . . other Logic Controllers." And I might have noted that
the Add menu for an HTTP Request does not include "Logic Controller"!
In this test plan, the If Controller can evaluate to True. The If Controller is a
child element of the Simple Controller.
Simple Controller
HTTP Request 1
If Controller (can evaluate to True)
HTTP Request 2
HTTP Request 3
Might we hope that a future version of JMeter will not allow us to drag and drop an
element in an illegal position in the test plan hierarchy?
Sincerely yours,
Kyle

Works for me (admittedly using Java Test samplers instead of HTTP)

Have you checked the jmeter log file?
