Hi,
Need help urgently. I need to load test a particular functionality(business Logic) of my site. I am using Bad Boy script recording to generate Jmeter script.

I was successful in passing the login credentials for all users using a CSV file to Jmeter. But within the script other parameters don't change for different Users. The values remain the same as recorded using Bad boy scripting. I am not that great with Jmeter. Any help in this regard is very much appreciated.


Thanks,
VJ

Hi VJ.

Passing just login and password is often not enough in the modern world. I expect that you need to add at least HTTP Cookie Manager to represent browser cookies and deal with cookie-based authentication.

Going forward, there could be mandatory dynamic parameters which represent page-level state, session ID, etc. In that case your test login should look as follows:

1. Open Login Page
2. Detect and extract any dynamic parameters and store them into JMeter Variables
3. Perform login providing credentials and dynamic parameters from previous step

This is called "correlation" and it's one of the most frequently asked questions

See ASP.NET Login Testing with JMeter guide for example. If your application isn't ASP.NET-based it doesn't matter, the approach shouldn't be different for other application types where correlation is required.

Hope this helps.
