+<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52496">Bug 52496</a>

A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller.
For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample),
or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size).

<h2>
Incompatible changes
</h2>
<p>
-When doing replacement of User Defined Variables, Proxy will not substitute partial values anymore when "Regexp matching" is used. It will use Perl 5 word matching ("\b")
+When using CacheManager, JMeter now caches responses for GET queries provided header Cache-Control is different from "no-cache" as described in specification.
+Furthermore it doesn't put anymore in Cache deprecated entries for "no-cache" responses. See
+<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53521">Bug 53521</a>
+ and
+<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53522">Bug 53522</a>
+
</p>
<p>
-In User Defined Variables, Test Plan, HTTP Sampler Arguments Table, Java Request Defaults, JMS Sampler and Publisher, LDAP Request Defaults and LDAP Extended Request Defaults, rows with
-empty Name and Value are no more saved.
+A major change has occured on JSR223 Test Elements, previously variables set up before script execution where stored in ScriptEngineManager which was created once per execution,
+now ScriptEngineManager is a singleton shared by all JSR223 elements and only ScriptEngine is created once per execution, variables set up before script execution are now stored
+in Bindings created on each execution, see
+<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53365">Bug 53365</a>
+.
</p>
<p>
-JMeter now expands the Test Plan tree to the testplan level and no further and selects the root of the tree. Furthermore default value of onload.expandtree is false.
+JSR223 Test Elements using Script file are now Compiled if ScriptEngine supports this feature, see
+<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53520">Bug 53520</a>
+.
</p>
<p>
-Graph Full Results Listener has been removed.
+Shortcut for Function Helper Dialog is now CTRL+F1 (CMD + F1 for Mac OS), CTRL+F (CMD+F1 for Mac OS) now opens Search Dialog.
</p>
<p>
-When calling "Clear All" command, if Log Viewer is displayed its content will be cleared.
+By default, the TestCompiler now stores details of which pairs it has seen in Controller instances rather than in a static Set.
+[
+<a href="https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53796">Bug 53796</a>
+]
+This gives much better memory behaviour for delayed start test plans, as memory used is proportional to the number of concurrent threads.
+With the static Set memory usage was proportional to the total thread count.
+This change is very unlikely to cause a problem.
+The original behaviour can be restored by setting the property
+<code>
+TestCompiler.useStaticSet=true
+</code>
+
+
+</p>

+
+HTTPS Spoofing options have been removed from Proxy as HTTPS recording is directly available since JMeter 2.4.
