Hi,
I am trying to create a data driven test in JMETER using the instructions on http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-jmeter/JMeterFAQ#head-87f846dad28fd6b2ad5eb0d 44d527d572f810653 under the question "How do I use external data files to in my Test scripts?". 1- I am not clear with the format for specifying value of the parameter when using the "User Parameters" preprocessor. I have given value the parameter "fName" as "${_StringFromFile(user.dat)}". Is the format for specifying value of the parameter correct? However, JMETER doesn't attempt to read from the data file user.dat. As a result, data posted for my subsequent request is evaluated as firstName=${fName}. The ${fName} is not getting substituted by the value in the data file. Is _StringFromFile a JMETER function that is invoked to read the data from the mentioned file? 2- I have specified the data in "user.dat" with the first line reading as FNAME & subsequent lines have values in it. Is the data file format correct? What could be the problem?
