dumping response on regex failure
hello everyone
i was wondering whether something like this was used by others on this
group. normally saving responses to a file seems to be unnecessary..
but under certain conditions where a regex fails, i would like the
entire response to be dumped somewhere... even to jmeter log for that
matter.
is there is a sneaky way to do this? i have tried using another regex
that tries to greedily match the entire response.. but this seems not
work. maybe i am doing something wrong. any suggestions?
thanks

If the error page contains some unique content (or uses a URL format)
that does not appear elsewhere, then use an Assertion to match the
content or the URL, and set the NOT qualifier. This will cause those
pages to be marked as a failure (which is what they are, after all).

Re: dumping response on regex failure

hello sebb,
i am kind of stuck here. the "save responses to file" indeed does what
i need, but the problem is the error condition. i have to create the
testplan around custom error pages that our applications show: so they
may not really be HTTP errors but processing errors or likewise.
(under heavy user load, maybe some component of the target application
failed).
what i need is something like:
HTTP Request Element
Regex for ${variable}
if "${variable}"=="null"
Save responses to file element
I saw that the IF and conditionals do not work beneath HTTP requests.
Is this as designed? If so, how difficult would it be to make it work
as above?
thanks

The Listeners allow for only errors to be logged to a file; however
unless you also select functional test mode, only the summary
information will be logged - not including the response itself.
However, the Save Responses Post-Processor always saves the entire
response, and can be set to save error responses only. So try that and
see how you get on.
