RE: increment in While Controller

[Lincoln, Adym]

Something I've done is I have a While Controller, then inside the While
Controller I have a CSV Data File.  I then have a stub/plug value in the
last record of the CSV Data File.  The stub/plug value is read into a
variable that I test for within the While Controller.

Here's the snippet of the JMX file...

        <org.apache.jmeter.control.WhileController>
          <stringProp
name="TestElement.gui_class">org.apache.jmeter.control.gui.WhileControll
erGui</stringProp>
          <stringProp
name="TestElement.test_class">org.apache.jmeter.control.WhileController<
/stringProp>
          <stringProp name="TestElement.name">While
Controller</stringProp>
          <boolProp name="TestElement.enabled">true</boolProp>
          <stringProp
name="WhileController.condition">${__javaScript(&quot;${id-bug}&quot;!=&
quot;999999&quot;,dummy)}</stringProp>
        </org.apache.jmeter.control.WhileController>
        <hashTree>
          <CSVDataSet>
            <stringProp name="delimiter">|</stringProp>
            <stringProp
name="TestElement.gui_class">org.apache.jmeter.testbeans.gui.TestBeanGUI
</stringProp>
            <stringProp
name="TestElement.test_class">org.apache.jmeter.config.CSVDataSet</strin
gProp>
            <stringProp
name="variableNames">userid-001,passwd-001,id-project,id-bug,access-leve
l</stringProp>
            <stringProp
name="TestElement.name">mantis-view-issues</stringProp>
            <boolProp name="TestElement.enabled">true</boolProp>
            <stringProp
name="filename">projects-issues-001.txt</stringProp>
          </CSVDataSet>
          <hashTree/>

And here's a snippet of the CSV Data File...

<snip>
Brown, Chris|xxxxxxxx|146|18193|55
Brown, Chris|xxxxxxxx|146|24241|55
Brown, Chris|xxxxxxxx|146|24242|55
stub, plug|xxxxxxxx|146|999999|55
</snip>
 
So, checking the WhileController.condition above, you can see I simply
test for the 999999 value in the id-bug variable...Also, I use a "|"
delimiter instead of the usual comma...

So how do you know when to stop?
