Lets say I have 6000 xml files I would like to use as my data located on say, drive "X". I also have a csv file I created in excel to use to "drive" my test. As long as I have the csv file in the same directory as the jmx test case I can put in a path to the xml files (X:/JMeter/Data files/XMLs) and it will find those files as long as my test case and csv file are in the Jmeter directory? (X:/JMeter/testcase.jmx) Am I understanding that correctly?
