Might be worth trying with the CSV Data set outside the while loop (not sure it will help, but easy to try). > Also, is there a sensible way of getting the test plan to skip over the first > line of the file (since it contains headings rather than data) ? Not that I know of. You could just remove the headings ;-) Might be a suitable enhancement to allow comments in CSV Data Set files. To avoid possible problems with existing data files, perhaps this could be done via a property, for example: csvdataset.comment_marker=!
