Info on variables http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/functions.html
Variables are like properties - but are quite not the same. What we are discussing here is a property. You reference the value of a property by using the __P function. http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/functions.html#__P Example: ${__P(p_ptpthreadcount,1)} works as a variable where the variable's value is defined by the __P function looking up the property 'ptpthreadcount' and if its undefined, it will use 1 for the variable. Add a debug sampler to your sampler, set the values for the sampler to true, and add a view results in tree listener to your testplan. Open the test plan passing the property value at startup Jmeter -t testplan.jmx -Jproperty=value Run the test plan and look at the debug sampler in the results tree to see what the property is defined as. If its properly defined, but not working where you are using it - you have a typo where you are referencing it. If it doesn't show up as the right name in the debug sampler, you have a typo when you defined the property (the commandline). Functions and variables are all casesensative. -----Original Message----- From: Joe Kramer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 05, 2008 11:55 AM To: JMeter Users List Subject: Re: Jmeter Ant task: how to test on multiple site with HTTP Request Defaults? Thanks, I am running from command-line and problem is variable in .jmx test description is not replaced. I am passing it with -Jname=value. Is variable supposed to be Dollar, Curly brace, two underscores capital P brace then variable name and closing braces? I can't find anything about variables in Jmeter manual.
