Re: using the execution path as a variable

[Andy Dawson <an...@iti.upv.es>]

Hi Chris,

If this isn´t useful/correct, hopefully the correction to my post may 
also help me.

For Gui runs I created a variable like this:

   * FilePrefix =
     
Results/${TestCase}/Threads_${Threads}/Duration_${RunDuration}/${__time(YMDHMS)}/ 


The path is relative to the working path of JMeter, all of the variables 
are also user defined (once) and substituted in the appropriate places.

For anything that generated an output I used it like this:

   * FilePath = ${FilePrefix}ResultErrors.jti

For none gui runs, I think the normal solution is to just specify the 
working directory when launching the script.

HTH,

Andy

Thanks Andy!  I think you inadvertently answered my question with

since this means that my relative path (..\xmlresults) will always be
valid, regardless of which directory I have browsed to in the GUI.

thanks,

chris
