Re: Validate XML element and attribute values in HTTP response
It seems to me that what you're trying to do is functional testing not load
testing.
Try using free version of soapui instead. It works really nicely with XMLs,
has plenty of features to quickly design tests. Can be executed on Jekins
etc and support java/groovy scripting.

Thanks so much for the reply.
You're right, I am trying to do functional testing, and I did consider soap ui before. I found that difficult to use also. I might try and look into that again. Appreciate the input.

If you use JMeter, you can use :
1) Method 1:
- Use XPath Extractor which should enable data extraction (attribute,
element content...)
- Response Assertion using variable extracted by the previous XPath
Extractor
2) Method 2:
- Use CSS/JQuery extractor which should enable data extraction (attribute,
element content...)
- Response Assertion using variable extracted by the previous CSS/JQuery
Extractor
3)Method 3:
- Use XPath Extractor or CSS/JQuery extractor
- Use JSR223 Sampler + Groovy or Javascript (as it's functional testing) to
do more complex validation
