Epoch-timestamp in HTTP sampler
Hi,
I need a efficient way to get an approximation of the current time in
all HTTP samplers as I need to send it as a parameter to the server.
What would be the cheapest way in terms of system resources on the
JMeter client machine to get the current Epoch time in every HTTP
sampler?
Thank you,
Andrej

If you think your custom function(s) would be useful to other users,
perhaps you could consider creating a Bugzilla enhancement issue with
the details?
For example, it might make more sense to extend the __time() function
rather than creating a new function class.

Thank you, got it working now. Now I can add more functions to JMeter
without starting interpreters all the time :) I am learning...

Needs a javascript interpreter. Whether it is good enough for you is
something that you can measure and say.
>a native custom function
Sorry thats what I called it .

Epoch indeed. Sorry for my lack of JMeter-termonology, but what do you
mean with a native custom function?
Would this be very inefficient:
${__javaScript(Math.round(new Date().getTime() / 1000))}

I would guess that the most efficient way would be to write a native custom
function to give you epoch time (similar to existing __time assumng that the
current values returned by __time dont work for you since you mention it as
epoch).
