Generate a random number and read the file until that record is reached. Of course this will need to be synchronzed, unless you use different file connections per thread - which could cause resource exhaustion with more than a few threads. If all records are the same length you should be able to skip to the appropriate record, which would obviously be quicker and would reduce the synchronize time. Randomising the file before use is a much better approach. > Thanks > Srinivasulu N > > > sebb-2-2 wrote: > > > > JMeter does not support random access to data files. > > > > This would not be trivial to implement, and would be slow unless all > > the lines in the file were the same length. > > > > Also, what do you mean by random order?
