JMeter regex extractor forEach controller

Question

I\'m creating some tests with JMeter, the situation is very simple, I have a search page with a list of results, and I have to retrieve from this results some values to use

Answer 1

Use the ForEach Controller - it's specifically designed for this purpose and does exactly what you want.

Answer 2

You may use ForEach Controller:

ThreadGroup
    YourSampler
        Regular Expression Extractor (match -1, any template)
    Foreach controller
        Counter(Maximum -> ${Result_matchNr} , Rf Name -> index)
        LinkSamplerUsingParsedData(use -> ${__V(Result_${index}_g1)}

Now, if you want to iterate to all groups, you need another foreach to do that. As you know which group represent what value, you can use this way.

Answer 3

...Just for collection.
See also this post for another implementation (case without using ForEach Controller):

ThreadGroup 
    HttpSampler 
        Regex Extractor (variableName = links) 
    WhileController(${__javaScript(${C} < ${links_matchNr})}) 
        HTTPSampler use ${__V(links_${C})} to access the current result 
        Counter (start=1, increment=1, maximum=${links_matchNr}, referenceName=C)

Answer 4

You have to reference the variable with the function:

${__V(Result_${index}_g1)
