How to add random values..
Hi All,
I'm bit new to jmeter so at the moment im facing some problems with load
testing. Currently im using jmeter for load testing in a web application. I
just want to know how can i generate a random value with the http request
and send . For example just assume that i have a parameter called "id" how
can i generate a random id to send with the http request..What should i type
under the value field?..i just type ${_Random(1,10)} under the value field
but it did not work..and the other thing is if i want to assign a value to a
field from a set of values which are stored in the data base how can i do
that?..is it possible?:-(..If some one know the solution please be kind
enough to send it..Thanks a lot..

Yes it works. I tried this "Variable Names" parameter but when I
checked value I forgot to append '_1' (or '_n' when n is the row
number) at the end of the variable name.

JMeter 2.3.4 allows one to save values as variables:
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#JDBC_Request
See parameter "Variable Names".

Re: How to add random values..
Posted by Jakub Białek <ra...@gmail.com>.
But if your values looks like "user1","user2","user3" or similar you
can simply generate there. Just use Counter (with Reference Name:
mycounter) and in http request concate string 'user' with counter:
user${mycounter}.
If you really want use CSV then:
1. add CSV Data Set Config
2. in CSV Data Set Config element set the name of the file (give it
without path and put file in jmeter bin directory)
3. in CSV Data Set Config element set the delimiter or leave the
default , (variable in your csv file should be separated by this
delimiter: value1,value2,value3 without any whitespaces)
4. in CSV Data Set Config element set the 'Variable Names' to which
values from the csv will be bind. So if you have csv file with 4
variables in each row put in 'Variable Names' v1,v2,v3,v4 - without
any whitespaces, then by using ${v1} ${v2} ${v3} ${v4} you can access
to those value.
5. if you put CSV Data Set Config in loop then each invoking will read
next line from the file
6. below CSV Data Set Config but on this same level put your http
request sampler.

Re: How to add random values..
Posted by dilantha <di...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
My main purpose is to get a random value for variables. For example just
imagine i have a field called "user name" and in the database i have some
different values like "user1","user2","user3"..I just want to assign these
values randomly to the variable "user name" when each time i'm sending a
http reauest. So i just gave up trying to get those values from the db. Now
im trying to add those value to a txt file and use it as csv data file. It
will be great help if you can give me the steps to that.Thanks a lot..

Re: How to add random values..
Posted by Jakub Białek <ra...@gmail.com>.
I'm a bit confused. Do you want to read data from CSV file/databse or
you can generate some random variable and use it more than once?
BTW. This solution with JDBC Request works correct.
Best regards,

Re: How to add random values..
Posted by dilantha <di...@gmail.com>.
Hi RaGnoR and all users,
Thanks a lot for user reply.I gave up on trying to retrieve values from db.
It doesn't seems to be working. Instead now i'm trying to use that CSV Data
Set. But still didn't found a good article which explains how to use a CSV
Data Set to set a random vsalue with the http request. If you can please
tell me how to use t from the beginning spet by step. A link to a proper
artical also would be enough. Again thanks a lot for your help...waiting for
your reply..Thanks..

Re: How to add random values..
Posted by Jakub Białek <ra...@gmail.com>.
First: 'Variable Name' in JDBC Connection Configuration is not name of
the variable where result will be bind but it is the name of pool,
similar is in the JDBC Request, so both name should be the same for
example mypool.
Second: JDBC Request must not be child of the JDBC Configuration
Configuration. It is possible to do so but I don't know why it is
avaible. JDBC Request should below JDBC Connection Configuration but
be on the same level.
Third: I have no idea how to extract variable from result returned by
the JDBC Request. I tried Regular Expression Extractor and this field
Variable names on the bottom of the JDBC Request view but their dont't
work. Do you consider to use data from CSV file instead of db
directly? It will be faster and easer :).
Remeber to put mysql driver library to jmeter lib directory.

Re: How to add random values..
Posted by dilantha <di...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
Thanks a lot..Thak works..I didn't add ${test_id}. That's why it didn't
work..Thank again..If you can please do me a one more favor.Please tel me
about adding values from db..Under the http request i created a JDBC
connection config.My configarations are
varible name : test_id
Database url: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/openevsys
JDBC driver class: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
username: root
password : root
Others i left as default.Im not sure about what to put under the JDBC driver
class i just added the same thing which can be seen in the tutorial.
After that i created a JDBC request under that JDBC connection config.I
gave the same varible name as JDBC cnnection config..Similarly in http
request ('add person') i use variable ${test_id}.
When i run this thing http request didn't send.I just tried by giving
separate names for JDBC config and conection then it sends the http request
but the value of add person is going as ${test_id}.:-(..If you can please
help me..Sorry for bothering.Thanks again.

Re: How to add random values..
Posted by Jakub Białek <ra...@gmail.com>.
It works fine for me :).
Try this, step by step:
1. add Random Variable element under your http request ('add person')
2. set the name of the Random Variable to test_id (check that this
name is unique in your test plan) and the minimum and maximum value as
you need
3. in http request ('add person') use variable in this form: ${test_id}
Best regards,
Jakub

Re: How to add random values..
Posted by dilantha <di...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
Thanks for the help.But still im facing that problem. I just right click the
http request which im sending and add a Random variable. For example just
assume there is a http request called "add person". i just need to send a
random value for person's id with that request. previously i added that "id"
parameter under http request. but now i removed it from there and add that
parameter to the random value which i have added to that "add person" http
request. But still i can't see the random value is going with the http
request. because when i go the result tree's request it didn't show me the
"id" field which ia have added under the random value. It only showed me the
static values which i have directly added to the http request..If you can
please help..I'm n big trouble:-(:-(..Thanks again..

Hi!
Instead of using Random function try use 'Random Variable'
configuration element.
Before you use data from db you have to fetch those data. To fetch
data use 'JDBC Connection Configuration' and 'JDBC Request' elements.
Read this: http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/build-db-test-plan.html.

Jakub
