Thanks Sebb for your response. I have put my answers in colored text for your perusal. Can you please have a look into them and clarify my doubts?

Are you providing a default value for the RE? I haven't provided with any default value as that is not going to serve my purpose. The value that will be substituted is always going to be dynamic. If so, is the variable set to the default value, or is the variable not even set? Didn't check it because of the earlier reason. The RE extractor won't be run if the sampler did not provide a sample result (but that should not happen for time-outs, only for unhandled errors) I didn't understand this. What time out are u talking of here ? Is it server time out ?can you please elaborate on it perhaps giving an example? I've just noticed that the code exits without doing anything if the response data length is zero. I think that is a bug, as the RE extractor can be applied to headers as well as the body... Perhaps that is not happening as I have verified it with View Results tree listener.I have checked that for a particular thread,one response is totally blank,meaning that when i check the response by clicking on the Show text radio button in the Response pane i see nothing. Subsequently Jmeter has also send the next request which was to get its parameter values substituted from the previous response and since the response is blank, the parameters are not getting substituted. > Now my question is does Jmeter always wait for the response to render and then > only it sends the subsequent requests? JMeter waits for a response (or time-out if appropriate) before continuing. > What happens if there is a stuck > thread (response not rendered)at the server? JMeter waits. > Or if the delay period is > reached then it bangs the server with a new request irrespective of > whether or not previous responses were rendered? > Say that i have a timer at the thread group level and the period is say 1000 ms. Now if to a particular request , there is no response within that period, will Jmeter send the next request(the next request is dependent on the reponse of the previous request) ?I didn't understand the connotation of time out here . If a timeout occurs, JMeter will continue with the next sample. Regards, Subhrajyoti Mobile: +919830079545 Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: www.labware.com LabWare LIMS Solutions - Results Count
