OK. Glad it's now working. > > 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 __log() function is useful for checking what is happening. [Or enable JMeter logging, but that applies to a class hiearchy, not indididual test elements, and you have to restart the test.] > 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."

Yes, I already checked in a fix for that. It's in the 2.0 nightly build. It may need some tweaking, but AFAIK it does prevent most illegal moves. > Sincerely yours, > > Kyle > > -----Original Message----- > From: sebb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, October 13, 2004 8:04 PM > To: JMeter Users List > Subject: Re: Condition in If Controlleralways evaluates to False ? > > On Wed, 13 Oct 2004 19:55:01 -0400, Kyle McAbee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Dear JMeter Users, > > > > In JMeter 2.0.1, I cannot get the Condition field of the If Controller to evaluate > > as True, even by hard-coding the value.
