Hi chron90
Dealing with a null LoadTestContext in ReadyAPI Performance can be challenging, especially when it exhibits unpredictable behavior.
To get to the bottom of the issue, let's examine the LoadTestContext feature.
Basically, LoadTestContext is a unique object that enables data sharing between the setup script and functional test cases, but only within the scope of a performance test scenario executed through ReadyAPI Performance
There are few main reasons you may encounter a null LoadTestContext
- Make sure the setup script that sets the variable (context.variableName = value) is running within the same scenario where you're trying to access it (context.LoadTestContext['variableName']).
- Also, double-check that the functional test case using LoadTestContext is indeed part of the same performance test scenario
- Sometimes, timing inconsistencies can occur, causing the functional test case to run before the setup script has finished setting the variable. Even if introducing a delay might seem like a quick fix, it's not a recommended solution as it can compromise the accuracy and reliability of performance test results
Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards
