Hi Bloomen,

Can't help with assertions. Haven't used them at all yet. Can you instruct Jmeter to click on a button? ... no not really. You can click on the button yourself; work out what gets sent to the webserver on the click and replicate that with samplers OR you can write some regular expressions to extract what the button does in a bit more of a generic way and replicate the request but it's not like you can make jmeter just click something and whatever that something triggers will get triggered automatically. Jmeter isn't a browser & won't execute any JS that might be attached to a button. It assumes you know more than the fact that a button exists. It assumes you know what the button does or will do in every situation and you have to build your tests accordingly.

Dear Friends,

I am new to JMeter.And i am just full of doubts...To start with, when
testing a web application, how to test clicking on a link...that is for
example if the link name is 'nabble' and it navigates to a particular
page, how can I instruct JMeter to click on nabble and then check if it
has navigated to the right page.

Thanks
Bloomen
