<ch_section>Incompatible changes</ch_section>
<ul>
-<li><b>SMTP Sampler</b> now uses eml file subject if subject field is empty</li>
-
-<li>With this version autoFlush has been turned off on PrintWriter in charge of writing test results.
-This results in improved throughput for intensive tests but can result in more test data loss in case
-of JMeter crash (extremely rare). To revert to previous behaviour set <code>jmeter.save.saveservice.autoflush</code> property to <code>true</code>.</li>
-
-<li>
-Shortcut for <b>Function Helper Dialog</b> is now <i>CTRL+SHIFT+F1 (CMD + SHIFT + F1 for Mac OS)</i>.
-The original key sequence <i>(Ctrl+F1)</i> did not work in some locations (it is consumed by the Java Swing ToolTipManager).
-It was therefore necessary to change the shortcut.
-</li>
-
-<li>
-<b>Webservice (SOAP) Request</b> has been removed by default from GUI as Element is deprecated. (Use <b>HTTP Request</b>
-with <i>Body Data</i>, see also the Template <i>Building a SOAP Webservice Test Plan</i>), if you need to show it, see property <code>not_in_menu</code> in <i>jmeter.properties</i>
-</li>
-
-<li>
-<b>Transaction Controller</b> now sets <i>Response Code</i> of <i>Generated Parent Sampler</i>
-(if <i>Generated Parent Sampler</i> is checked) to response code of first failing child in case of failure of one of the children, in previous versions <i>Response Code</i> was empty.
-</li>
-
-<li>
-In previous versions, <b>IncludeController</b> could run Test Elements located inside a <b>Thread Group</b>, this behaviour (<i>which was not documented</i>)
-ould result in weird behaviour, it has been removed in this version (see <bugzilla>55464</bugzilla>).
-The correct way to include Test Elements is to use <b>Test Fragment</b> as stated in documentation of <b>Include Controller</b>.
-</li>
-
-<li>
-The retry count for the HttpClient 3.1 and HttpClient 4.x samplers has been changed to <b>0</b>.
-Previously the default was 1, which could cause unexpected additional traffic.
-</li>
-
-<li>Starting with this version, the <b>HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder</b> tries to detect when a sample is the result of a previous
-redirect. If the current response is a redirect, JMeter will save the redirect URL. When the next request is received,
-it is compared with the saved redirect URL and if there is a match, JMeter will disable the generated sample.
-To revert to previous behaviour, set the property <code>proxy.redirect.disabling=false</code>
-</li>
-
-<li>Starting with this version, in <b>HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder</b> if Grouping is set to <i>Put each group in a new Transaction Controller</i>,
-the Recorder will create <b>Transaction Controller</b> instances with <i>Include duration of timer and pre-post processors in generated sample</i> set
-to false. This default value reflect more accurately response time.
-</li>
-
-<li><code>__escapeOroRegexpChars</code> function (which escapes ORO reserved characters) no longer trims the value (see <bugzilla>55328</bugzilla>)
-</li>
-
-<li>The <i>commons-lang-2.6.jar</i> has been removed from embedded libraries in <code>jmeter/lib</code> folder as it is not needed by JMeter at run-time
-(it is only used by Apache Velocity for generating documentation).
-If you use any plugin or third-party code that depends on it, you need to add it in <code>jmeter/lib</code> folder

+<!-- =================== Known bugs =================== -->
+
+
+<ch_section>Known bugs</ch_section>
+
+<ul>
+<li>The Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller,
+but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</li>
+
+<li>Listeners don't show iteration counts when a If Controller has a condition which is always false from the first iteration (see <bugzilla>52496</bugzilla>).
+A workaround is to add a sampler at the same level as (or superior to) the If Controller.
+For example a Test Action sampler with 0 wait time (which doesn't generate a sample),
+or a Debug Sampler with all fields set to False (to reduce the sample size).
+</li>
+
+<li>Webservice sampler does not consider the HTTP response status to compute the status of a response, thus a response 500 containing a non empty body will be considered as successful, see <bugzilla>54006</bugzilla>.
+To workaround this issue, ensure you always read the response and add a Response Assertion checking text inside the response.
+</li>
+
+<li>
+The numbers that appear to the left of the green box are the number of active threads / total number of threads,
+these only apply to a locally run test; they do not include any threads started on remote systems when using client-server mode, (see <bugzilla>54152</bugzilla>).
+</li>
+
+<li>
+Note that there is a <a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6396599 ">bug in Java</a>
+on some Linux systems that manifests itself as the following error when running the test cases or JMeter itself:
+<pre>
+ [java] WARNING: Couldn't flush user prefs:
+ java.util.prefs.BackingStoreException:
+ java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Not supported: indent-number
+</pre>
+This does not affect JMeter operation. This issue is fixed since Java 7b05.
+</li>
+
+<li>
+With Java 1.6 and Gnome 3 on Linux systems, the JMeter menu may not work correctly (shift between mouse's click and the menu).
+This is a known Java bug (see <bugzilla>54477 </bugzilla>).
+A workaround is to use a Java 7 runtime (OpenJDK or Oracle JDK).
+</li>
+
+<li>
+With Oracle Java 7 and Mac Book Pro Retina Display, the JMeter GUI may look blurry.
+This is a known Java bug, see Bug <a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8000629" >JDK-8000629</a>.
+A workaround is to use a Java 7 update 40 runtime which fixes this issue.
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+<!-- =================== Incompatible changes =================== -->
+
+<ch_section>Incompatible changes</ch_section>
+
+<ul>
+<li><b>SMTP Sampler</b> now uses eml file subject if subject field is empty</li>
+
+<li>With this version autoFlush has been turned off on PrintWriter in charge of writing test results.
+This results in improved throughput for intensive tests but can result in more test data loss in case
+of JMeter crash (extremely rare). To revert to previous behaviour set <code>jmeter.save.saveservice.autoflush</code> property to <code>true</code>.</li>
+
+<li>
+Shortcut for <b>Function Helper Dialog</b> is now <i>CTRL+SHIFT+F1 (CMD + SHIFT + F1 for Mac OS)</i>.
+The original key sequence <i>(Ctrl+F1)</i> did not work in some locations (it is consumed by the Java Swing ToolTipManager).
+It was therefore necessary to change the shortcut.
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<b>Webservice (SOAP) Request</b> has been removed by default from GUI as Element is deprecated. (Use <b>HTTP Request</b>
+with <i>Body Data</i>, see also the Template <i>Building a SOAP Webservice Test Plan</i>), if you need to show it, see property <code>not_in_menu</code> in <i>jmeter.properties</i>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<b>Transaction Controller</b> now sets <i>Response Code</i> of <i>Generated Parent Sampler</i>
+(if <i>Generated Parent Sampler</i> is checked) to response code of first failing child in case of failure of one of the children, in previous versions <i>Response Code</i> was empty.
+</li>
+
+<li>
+In previous versions, <b>IncludeController</b> could run Test Elements located inside a <b>Thread Group</b>, this behaviour (<i>which was not documented</i>)
+ould result in weird behaviour, it has been removed in this version (see <bugzilla>55464</bugzilla>).
+The correct way to include Test Elements is to use <b>Test Fragment</b> as stated in documentation of <b>Include Controller</b>.
+</li>
+
+<li>
+The retry count for the HttpClient 3.1 and HttpClient 4.x samplers has been changed to <b>0</b>.
+Previously the default was 1, which could cause unexpected additional traffic.
+</li>
+
+<li>Starting with this version, the <b>HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder</b> tries to detect when a sample is the result of a previous
+redirect. If the current response is a redirect, JMeter will save the redirect URL. When the next request is received,
+it is compared with the saved redirect URL and if there is a match, JMeter will disable the generated sample.
+To revert to previous behaviour, set the property <code>proxy.redirect.disabling=false</code>
+</li>
+
+<li>Starting with this version, in <b>HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder</b> if Grouping is set to <i>Put each group in a new Transaction Controller</i>,
+the Recorder will create <b>Transaction Controller</b> instances with <i>Include duration of timer and pre-post processors in generated sample</i> set
+to false. This default value reflect more accurately response time.
+</li>
+
+<li><code>__escapeOroRegexpChars</code> function (which escapes ORO reserved characters) no longer trims the value (see <bugzilla>55328</bugzilla>)
+</li>
+
+<li>The <i>commons-lang-2.6.jar</i> has been removed from embedded libraries in <code>jmeter/lib</code> folder as it is not needed by JMeter at run-time
+(it is only used by Apache Velocity for generating documentation).
+If you use any plugin or third-party code that depends on it, you need to add it in <code>jmeter/lib</code> folder
