Reg Expression Usage
For the developers out there, this is a great product. I am very happy
with it. However, I am currently having an issue getting the Regular
Expression Extractor to work correctly. I have tried to get this to run
for a while now to no avail. I am currently using jmeter1.9 RC.
Here is a snippet from the prior response that I am trying to extract
from:
<table style="table-layout: fixed" border="0">
<tr id="s407474" class="clsTableRow"
onclick="toggleRowSelection(frmDispatch, this, '123366' ,'116019'
,'407474');"><td width='24px' class="clsHiddenTableData"><img
---END snippet
I am trying to extract "toggleRowSelection(frmDispatch, this, '123366'
,'116019' ,'407474')" out of the prior response to use the numbers as
parameters in the next request. example: item=123366,116019,407474
my test plan consists of:
thread group
-simple controller
--....
--html request
--Regular Expression Extractor
--Html Link Parser
--html request
My data for Regular Expression Extractor
Reference name: testItems
Regular Expression: toggleRowSelection[(]frmDispatch, this, '(\d+)'
,'(\d+)' ,'(\d+)'
template: $1$
Match Number (0 for Random): 0
Default Value: 0
In the second html request, I have coded the parameter as
item=${testItems_g1}
When I run the test, I get the following in the request data:
http://****.***.com:8888/spdd/viewNotes.do
Query Data: filter=ALL&dispatchItems=%24%7BtestItems_g1%7D with a null
pointer exception. What is it that looks incorrect?
Perhaps I misunderstand the way to use the Expression extractor...

BTW, I just added this feature to the regex extractor and committed today.
So, in the future, you can use it as you describe.

You would be better off using the __regexFunction, I think. The GUI extractor component
doesn't save all the groups - it only saves the templated result into the reference name variable.
so, you should expect your variable ${testitems} would equal 123366, but you wouldn't have
access to the other groups. Which is an interesting thing by itself - how to best provide the
kind of flexibility you apparently need?
Anyway, you can do what you want with the __regexFunction, so I'd use that instead.
