How to configure a thread to run test step for only once in a load test

Hello,

Each thread runs test case only once. In SetUp script for loadtest load property file and add properties to test case ( book1, book2, etc)

than in request you could have :

<pub:BookBuyRequest>
         <!--Optional:-->
         <com:bookId>12</com:bookId>
         <!--Optional:-->
         <com:bookName>${#TestCase#book${#ThreadIndex}}</com:bookName>
         <!--Optional:-->
         <com:Language>GBR</com:Language>
</pub:BookBuyRequest>

So, each thread will send one request with one book based on thread index.

Let me know does it helps,
robert

Hi

I think i didnt explain my problem clearly .I am explaining it once agian
i am running a load test. i have one test step like above mentioned
i have thread count of 60. i am using strategy as simple.i am running the test for 600 sec.
all my sixty threads should execute the test step only once .
i want to take all my values from text file as (CSV).

i have run some normal test.i found same thread is exceuting the test step again and again and other threads just putting empty requests .i want to restrict such that when a thread gets started.it should take its values from text file based on its index. and run the test step only once.such that 60 threads should run a test step only once and put on a whole 60 requests taking values from text file based on their  thread index.


if u can provide some sample code for this requirement .it would be really helpful

Hi,

when you are using load test every test case is running in separate thread.
And ThreadIndex property is counting from 0 to number of threads you choosen.
You can use this ThreadIndex property to fetch indexed row from your file.

Example:
on test case level add 5 properties :
book - value0
book1 - value1
book2 - value2
book3 - value3
book4 - value4


then in test request

       
        12
       
        ${#TestCase#book${#ThreadIndex}}
       
        GBR


when you run load test with 5 threads you will have requests like this
...
        book0
  ...
...
        book1
  ...

...
        book2
  ...


Hope this helps

Hello,

Hm, can you send us a project file, at support@eviware.com,  which we could use to reproduce this.

I cannot send my project.But its simple to reproduce it. its just a scenario.it doesnt depend  any project.i.Just apply the same steps on any sample project .it will happen the same on any project.I am using soapui pro 3.0.1

Hi!

can you please try the upcoming nightly-build to see if this is working better now?
