The test tree is not followed in strict order - although samplers and
controllers are executed in the specified order, some other elements are
not.

For example, you can place listeners anywhere at a given level, including
before any samplers, and they will see all the sample results in that level
- and below.

Timers behave similarly.

Quote from one of Mike Stover's postings:

"You can attach a timer at any point in the test tree.  If you attach it
to the threadgroup, it will apply to every sampler within the
threadgroup.  If you attach it just to the first sample, it will only
delay the first sample."

If necessary, you can always add a Simple Controller to the test plan.
