As indicated above, I would probably create a separate JMX file to do the test setup. Then have two thread groups running in parallel: Test (loop = 1) + Loop controller (as desired) + + Samplers etc + + ... + Test Action: Stop/Stop All Threads Monitor (run forever) The next release of JMeter will have setUp/tearDown thread groups; the setUp TG is intended for setting up tests; in your case the Caching TG You would still need to use the Test Action (or similar) to stop the Monitor. > Thanks, > ERIC > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://jmeter.512774.n5.nabble.com/Setting-a-varaiable-on-a-thread-group-stopping-tp4376764p4376764.html > Sent from the JMeter - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: jmeter-user-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: jmeter-user-h...@jakarta.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: jmeter-user-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: jmeter-user-h...@jakarta.apache.org
