Have you run with a debug sampler just before the if controller to ensure RecordError is in fact 0 when expected? If running headless, add a xml listener to capture the output.
Your logic is sound in the script something else must be getting in the way. Are you always passing -JRecordError=1 in your parameters if so have you got something that will overwrite it if no error is found? -----Original Message----- From: Bo Bodnar [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 28 February 2017 15:55 To: JMeter Users List <[email protected]> Subject: IF controller questions It's been a while since I messed with the IF controller, I can't find the scripts I created a few years ago, so here goes: I'm creating a script where I want the user to pass a parameter which turns on or off an IF controller. The IF controller only has a Simple Data Writer. To wit: jmeter -n -t FILE.jmx -JRecordError=1 etc, etc where if RecordError = 0 the IF portion is skipped and if it is 1 that portion is not skipped. The parameter is referenced in a User Defined Variables page as follows: ${__P (RecordError, 0)} and in the IF controller the condition is ${RecordError} == 1 (and all checkboxes are unchecked). I've deliberately introduced errors (e.g., writing to a file that cannot be written to and the Simple Data Writer creates the log file, but the file is empty (this is regardless of whether RecordError is 0 or 1). I do not want this file created if RecordError=0. This isn't rocket science but, for the life of me, I can't figure out what I'm doing incorrectly. Thank you for your time. Bo Bohdan L.
