That does not sound like a very onerous job for JMeter.

Just try a sample test with any system available.

Hi,
I wonder if someone can tell me how to decide what spec of machine is
needed to host JMeter? I need to ask for the machine before the test
project starts.

I will be running a pretty typical test. Http samplers only. About 100
threads. Reasonable 'think times'. I can use CSV output files rather
than xml. Running non-GUI.

Thanks!

About breaking a loop, can't this option be implemented because it can
be a huge burden if most samplers inside the loop.

One way might be:

Add User Parameter as a child of the first sample to save the current
time as START.
Add a child timer to a Test Action at the end of the loop, and
calculate the remaining time using something like:

${__longSum(60000,${START},-${__time()})}

The Test Action will then pause for the appropriate time.

Not easy; I think the only way is to use an If Controller for each
sampler apart from the first:

Loop
   Sample 1
   IF continue
    Sample 2
   IF continue
    Sample 3
etc.

controlling loops

Posted by "Marmelstein, John" <jo...@bearingpoint.com>.

Hi,
I'm trying to control my loops, and I'm wondering if there is a good way
to do it. As a way to start the loop, I could use Loop Controller, or
set the loop flag on the thread group. The things I need to do are-

1- Control the duration of each loop. I want each loop to take one
minute. For example, say the samplers generally finish in about 10
seconds. I would want a pause of 50 before the next iteration. I know
this could be done (pretty much) with a constant throughput timer, but I
don't know how many samplers there will be per iteration.

2- Break out of a loop. I would like to break out of a loop (for
example go back to the start of a loop controller) under some condition
(maybe in an IF controller). Anyone know how to do that?

Thanks!
John

RE: Regarding constat timer

Posted by Jitendra Kumar Mohanty <Ji...@infogain.com>.

Hi Sebb,

Actually I have two requests R1 & R2, want to introduce some delay
before sending the R2 to the server.

So in this case also do need to add the timer as child ?

Thanks in advance,

Jitendra

Neither, because timers are processed before any samplers in scope.

Either:

Add the timer as a child of the second request.

Or:

Use Test Action sampler.
