The following suggestions relate to builds after 1.9.1, so you would need to download one of the nightly builds.
The Thread Group now has a set of options for action to be taken on Sampler Error.
You could set the action to Stop Thread or Stop Test, and then add the appropriate Assertions to cause the Sample to fail where
required. This assumes that the web service encodes the positive/negative reponse in the data, rather than in the HTTP response
code - i.e. the Sample responses must be successful; you can then use the Assertion to set the sample as failed.
[The plan was to extend the Stop on Error options to allow more fine-grained control, but this has not yet been implemented.]
However, if you are prepared to code a short Java script, what you ask should be possible using the latest CVS build - provided that
you get one with BeanShell support compiled in (the build log will tell you if so). You would also need to download the beanshell
jar from www.beanshell.org as this is not distributed with JMeter.
The BeanShell Response Assertion allows you access to all the response fields and methods, including stopThread() and stopTest().
The response fields are accessible as the following variables (Strings):
ResponseData - this is of type byte []
ResponseCode
ResponseMessage
ResponseHeaders
So you could code something like:
if (ResponseCode.equals("123")) {
Response.setStopThread(true);
}

Such is life!

Posted by Sebastian Bazley <Se...@london.sema.slb.com>.
I've added Post Processor to CVS which can be used to stop a thread or the test if a sample failed.
Sample usage:
Loop Controller
Sampler
Assertion
Response Action Error Handler
Hope this helps.
S.
