Hello! I have a unique (I think) situation here. I'll try to explain it as clearly as possible. This may not be doable in Jmeter, but here is the requirement:
I have a website and am using the web logs to run performance tests. The weblogs will contain all the different URLs that customers would normally hit. These can be searches, product pages, home page hits, etc. The URL of the request will not tell me what page I'm going to since a user can be redirected to other pages depending on the state of the user and system (data is always changing). One thing all these pages have in common is a comment in the source which describes what page I am at. Example: http://www.mysite.com/c/this/is/an/example/url can be sent to a search results page. So the comment on that page will be "page: Search_Results". Example: http://www.mysite.com/c/this/is/another/example/url can be redirected to the home page because an error may have occurred in some backend system. The comment on source will be "page: Home_Page". The problem I'm running into right now is that since I only have one sampler which is randomly choosing a URL to hit, the reports will only have the sampler name. What I'm looking for is an aggregate report that would list the data broken down my the different page types. I'm currently using LoadRunner for this which we're trying to get rid of. For those with LoadRunner, I'm achieving this by putting a timer around the request, then parsing out the page name, and the using a built-in function called lr_set_transaction(name,duration) where I can pass the page name and response time. I hope this makes sense. Thanks, MJ
