Best place to put function calls
Hello,
I was wondering what is the best place to put a function call in a JMeter
Test Plan.
I have the answer for:
functions that will be used as variables in the rest of test plan, best
place would be User Defined Variables config element
functions which result is the value of a parameter, I would put them in the
parameter Value column of the Table
But for others that are not parameters of a sample or that build many
different variables ?
Let's say I want to:
split a String
log / logn
Is putting them in a Debug Sampler a good idea ? in which field name or
comment ?
Thank you for your help
Regards

As Shaba wrote, I also use BSF to create more complex variables.

Extractor, I agree. But it does not answer my question.
Bean shell smapler - if it is java script that performs some operations &

Debug sampler ..helps in debugging what is stored in various variable's or
functions return value.
If it is regular expression - use regular expression extractor
Bean shell smapler - if it is java script that performs some operations &
returns value.
