Hi everyone, *DESCRIPTION OF MY SITUATION:*
(1) The application I am testing is session-sensitive; I can not log in the second time using the same user as the first time without expiring the first time's session. (2) I want to simulate a workload of 500 users but do not want to create 500 actual test login accounts. (3) I am currently using the "CSV Data Set Config" for obtaining login account for each thread. (4) I am also using the "Regular Expression Extractor" to extract the jsessionid from the URL for subsequent request. *QUESTION:* ** (1) How can I set up my test plan to login only once under a ThreadGroup, and share the session with all threads? I have attempted to use the "Once Only Controller" to include the login request, but results shows that JMeter sends it for every thread. In other words, the scope of "Once Only Controller" seems to be within the Thread, rather than the ThreadGroup. Or perhaps, I am doing something wrong. (2) If possible, can you provide a high level skeleton for the test plan? For example: ThreadGroup -- Once Only Controller ----Login Requests ... ... etc. Thank you, Nguyen [email protected]
