I have the following arrangement (BeanShell samplers added solely for
debugging purposes):
Test Plan
...
- Test Fragment XYZ
-- CSV Data
...
-- If Controller ( condition: "${Fields_matchNr}"!="0" )
--- BeanShell Sampler #1
--- Loop Controller ( count: ${Fields_matchNr} )
---- BeanShell Sampler #2
---- Counter ( start: 1, max: ${Fields_matchNr} )
---- BeanShell Sampler #3
---- HTTP Request
---- BeanShell Sampler #4
--- BeanShell Sampler #5
...
- Thread Group
- ModuleController ( -> Test Fragment XYZ )
User data is drawn from the CSV file. The run-time variable
Fields_matchNr , extracted earlier, has a value of 1 for the first user,
and 2 for the second user (it will have a value between 1 and 4 for other
users, but is not known until run-time).
I'm perplexed by my observation of differing behaviour of the loop
controller in two slightly different executions of the test-plan.
Concurrent execution: if I initially specify 2 threads with 1 iteration,
the following expected outcome is observed:

For the second user (iteration), with the field-match being correct, there
is no execution in the loop controller. Huh? (As a result, an essential
variable is not set, and a subsequent beanshell pre-processor fails.)
What am I missing here? Help appreciated.

Nige
