No; JMeter variables are per-thread. The initial settings are copied to all threads when the threads are created; thereafter the variables are independent. That is essential to allow threads to process RE extractors etc independently. JMeter properties are gobal. You can use the __setProperty() function to set a property. > > A regression testcase I am building needs to 'scrape' a variable from a > webpage _only once_, then use it the scraped variable in load testing > another webservice.
