+ <li>JMeter functions like <code>__counter</code>,
<code>__time</code>...</li>

+To correlate, we can get data from a request with <code>Post Processors</code>
like <code>JSON Extractor</code>, <code>Regular Expression Extractor</code>...
and inject it in another request.

+To find data to correlate, the easiest way to do it is to use the Search
function in <code>View Results Tree</code>.
