Sorry sent my msg before I finished including all of it, here is the SOAP response I am trying to parse and run a assertion check against:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><soap:Body><GetUKLocationByTownResponse xmlns="http://www.webserviceX.NET"><GetUKLocationByTownResult><NewDataSet>? <Table>??? <Town>Eltham</Town>??? <County>Greater London</County>??? <PostCode>SE9</PostCode>? </Table>? <Table>??? <Town>Feltham</Town>??? <County>Greater London</County>??? <PostCode>TW13</PostCode>? </Table>? <Table>??? <Town>Meltham</Town>??? <County>West Yorkshire</County>??? <PostCode>HD7</PostCode>? </Table>? <Table>??? <Town>New Eltham</Town>??? <County>Greater London</County>??? <PostCode>SE9</PostCode>? </Table></NewDataSet></GetUKLocationByTownResu lt></GetUKLocationByTownResponse></soap:Body></soap:Envelope> and I just want to check that Town>Eltham</Town> Is text or not numeric Also would like to know how I might run an assertion against the above XML to check that PostCode>SE9</PostCode> "SE9" is only 3 characters long.? So any ideas on how I might use Jmeter to only run an assertion against a small part of these results and not the entire XML response?? a few examples would be VERY helpful :) Thanks -----Original Message----- From: sebb <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: JMeter Users List <[email protected]> Sent: Fri, 11 Apr 2008 12:45 pm Subject: Re: Response Assertion of only part of response?

Just add whatever context is needed to ensure that the correct part of the response is matched.
