Issue with Response assertion for HTTP Request Sampler
Hi All,
I am a newbie so please tolerate with my ignorance :)
I have installed JMeter 2.5 version and have configured HTTP Request sampler
to send a request. I receive the response successfully without any issues.
Now, i have to verify that the response contains a particular block of xml
(multiple lines) to make sure that i have received the proper response. So i
have added response assertion to the HTTP Request sampler and copied the
block of xml to it
Now, When i send HTTP request to a server in non-windows platform everything
works fine. But when i send the same request to a server in windows
platform, the response assertion fails even though the response contains the
block of xml verified through response assertion. But if i give a one line
text or one line xml from the block of xml in response assertion it is
passed.
Please let me know if i am doing anything wrong. Is multiple line comparison
allowed in response assertion?
Thanks in advance.

Hi ZK,
Thanks for the options. After trying all the options, i think the best way
would to give the major elements of the xml as separate patters to be
matched with the response.
Thanks all for your help. I really appreciate it. :)

Have you read the documentation on Response Assertion?
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#Response_Assertion
I suspect the problem is that the end of line characters are not being
stored correctly.
It's quite difficult to match multiple lines correctly, so I suggest
you just add multiple single-line patterns; they all have to match.
If you want to match the whole contents, then consider using the Size
and MD5Hex Assertions; they will be quicker.
Or you can use the Save Responses to a file Listener to capture the
sample data and complete the comparison after the test run.
You should probably use that anyway.

Hi,
could you post a sample of the *full * xml assertion you use?
Otherwise we all all shooting in the dark!

Re: Issue with Response assertion for HTTP Request Sampler

hi
what options have you chosen for Response Assertion?
- Contains - true if the text contains the regular expression pattern
- Matches - true if the whole text matches the regular expression pattern
- Equals - true if the whole text equals the pattern string
(case-sensitive)
- Substring - true if the text contains the pattern string
(case-sensitive)
Equals and Substring patterns are plain strings, not regular expressions.
Note that what you are trying to do resembles the "Equals" or "Substring"
usecase. However as sebb points out , it is important that the string then
be an exact match (including the line endings or spaces or whatever) and it
is very hard to visually check whitespace characters.
However such a thing is rarely needed in a test (and has the added
consequence of making your test very brittle). It's usually easier to
compare specific data points than the entire response.

deepak

Hi ZK,
Thanks for the response. I googled for the special characters and found a
list of 11
[ \ ^ $ . | ? * + ( )
I have escaped . with a backslash. But the response assertion takes that too
in a literal way.
*Assertion error: false
Assertion failure: true

Hi Sebb,
Thanks a lot for the response.
Response match between the OSes. I haven't defined any regular expressions.
I have just copied the block of xml that is expected to be present in the
response (and it indeed is present in the response) into response assertion.
Is there anything that i should do with regex?
Please clarify. thanks once again..

That sounds like an issue with end-of-line matching.
I would expect the response to not vary between OSes, but perhaps the
regex processing might.
You can save the input XML using this Listener:
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#Save_Responses_to_a_file
and make sure they are the same on both OSes.
If so, then it must be an issue with the way the regex is defined or processed.

Hi,
Do the values change of the response stay the same? or do they change?
If they change you should consider using regEx (I recommend a program called
regexbuddy... but you have to pay for this), anyways I have given you 2
options below (both work for me as a response assertion) although there are
other ways to check an xml response (such as XPath Assertion)
Option 1:

Hi Deepak / ZK,
Thanks for the response.
@ Deepak - Yes, what you said is correct. Am trying to accomplish something
like Substring. Should have used Substring only :) I tried using it now, but
still facing with the same error :(
