Where are the UDVs compared to your samplers? They are not valid until that element has been processed by the test plan.
You can use properties which would be available from the start. -----Original Message----- From: Noel O'Brien [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2009 10:30 AM To: [email protected] Subject: When are paramerters/variables resolved? Hi, I'm wondering at what point does JMeter resolve all variables (or parameters? :) ) stored in a User Defined Variables element? I'm using serveral JMS samplers (point-to-point) and I'm using the same timeout value for each one, so for convenience I would like to define it in a User Defined Variables element and reference it in the Timeout field of the JMS Sampler as ${timeout}. The problem is that when the GUI stores the data to the test element, or it is reloaded (i.e. once transfer() or configure() is called) the default timeout value (2000) is stored in the test element and displayed in the GUI I've debugged through it and the cause is that the getTimeout() method in JMSSampler.java is trying to return the value as an int, but as in my case timeout is ${timeout}, it is not resolved and the default value is returned instead. Is this a bug? What can I do in the meantime to work around it? I see two approaches: 1. Modify getTimout() to return a string 2. Somehow resolve ${timeout} to its value What are the ramifications of either of these approaches?
