Randomizing Loop controller Repetition Behaviour
I want to include following behavior in my jmeter test script
My test plan have 3 transaction controllers Search,ViewItem and CreateItem.
Those transaction are located inside loop controllers as I want each one to
run in different ratios for a one iteration.
Test Plan
Thread Group 1
Loop Controller 1 (3 times) > Search TC
Loop Controller 1 (2 times) > ViewItem TC
Loop Controller 1 (1 time) > CreateItem TC
So the normal execution behaviour would be as below
User 1 Iteration 1 :Search TC, Search TC, Search TC, ViewItem TC, ViewItem
TC, CreateItem TC
But I wanted to randomize the repition of Transaction controllers inside
same iteration, some thing like below.
User 1 Iteration 1 :Search TC,Search TC, ViewItem TC, CreateItem TC,
ViewItem TC, Search TC
so at the end of the test each transaction controller has been executed in
various ratios but repeat in a random manner. Is this possible?
Please share your valuable idea on this
Thanks and regards
Pubudu

Sorry, sent again to correct what I said in the second paragraph.

Create a CSV file containing that random order and use its values to
designate what sampler will be executed.

Instead of using the random function to determine the order, you'll use a
CSV file; so you can control the number of times each sampler will be
executed.

To nitpick :)
It doesnt guarantee the 3:2:1 ratio (similar to any other random scheme) -
though I think that requirement is incorrect ...

If you want an overall ratio instead of per user, you can modify the if statements to check for a range. For example for search the random number must be within 1 and 3, for view it has to be between 4 and 5 and for create it has to be 6.
If the ratio has to be per user, you have at least two possibilities:
1. Use a random order Controller ( http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#Random_Order_Controller) and put search three times, view two times and create one times into the controller. You might want to look at modules so you don't have to repeat yourself.
2. Use Javascript to get an index with the correct ratio and use a switch Controller ( http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#Switch_Controller).
This could be achieved by an array with the names of the Samplers in the correct ratio, e.g. three times search, two times view and one create. Shuffling that array and then looping over it.

Re: Randomizing Loop controller Repetition Behaviour

Hi
take a look at the various controllers - In particular the Throughput
Controller and Random order controller. You can use the throughput
controller to do things like Search executes 1.5 times as ViewItem and 3
times as much as CreateItem.
Threadgroup
+RandomOrder
++Throughput (Percent , 50%)
+++Search
++Throughput(Percent, 33..33)
+++View
++Throughput(Percent, 16.67)
+++Create
Note that the 3 times as much - alongside random probably wont work too
well for randomness ...

Hi
Thanks for the reply . But what I want to do is bit different than this. I
want to repeat Search TC for 3 times, ViewItem TC for 2 times
and CreateItem TC for once. But this repetition need to be done in a random
manner. But at the end of the test Search TC must executed for 3
times ,ViewItem
TC for 2 times and CreateItem TC for once. And all the Samplers should be
executed.
Thanks and Regards

Loop Controller: 6 times
- Random 1 through 3
- If Controller: randNum == 1
- Search sampler
- If Controller: randNum == 2
- ViewItem sampler
- If Controller: randNum == 3
- CreateItem sampler
