Is my understanding correct?
Yes, you have understood the scope correctly. Howver, note that variable values are local to a thread. A thread that changes the variable will only change it for that thread. > Also, if you have two thread groups in a Test Plan, and thread group one > calls another test with an include controller, and gets some variables back > from that test via an XPath Extraction, the second thread group in the Test > Plan does not have access to those variable. It this understanding correct? Not sure what the include controller has to do with it. Otherwise same as above. > > Thanks. > > Janine > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: jmeter-user-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: jmeter-user-h...@jakarta.apache.org
