True but not strictly needed for a performance / load test right? (unless
this is the bit you are testing out). If you just need some value in this
field (to prevent a server side error) then a HTTP header manager with a
hard coded value should suffice.
Anyway this seems to work
Thread Group
+HTTP Header manager (Referer = ${Referer})
+set the initial value of the variable Referer as blank or deal with the
first request differently (for e.g. if you dont want the referer at all) in
wh
+Simple Controller
Request 1
Request 2
Request 3
....
++Regular Expression Extractor (as a child of simple controller so that it
applies to all requests)
Name = Referer (same as the header manager variable)
Choose URL in the radio button ,
Expression=(.*) Template=$1$ (i.e. we get the whole URL)
If you wanted to do the same thing in BSH, you'd probably use
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/api/org/apache/jmeter/protocol/http/sampler/HTTPSampleResult.html
getURL
I normally have to refer to the javadocs if I need to know the methods /
objects etc.
