Well, if you're testing site registration, it would be nice to have another test case for REMOVING those users that you just registered, if that's possible.
I was doing the exact same thing you're doing, and the old HTTPUserParameterModifier does retrieve the values randomly. I have an update from Mark Walsh that returns the values from users.xml sequentially instead of randomly, and I'll forward it to you in a separate email. To "unregister" users, I had to create a 'special' URL in our application, enabled only in development, that removes a user based on a userName request parameter. That way, I could create a test case to remove all the users using the SAME users.xml file that I used to add them. I found this to be easier than anything else. > -----Original Message----- > From: Mason Jones [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 10:48 AM > To: JMeter Users List > Subject: RE: Newbie Questions > > > > > > From: David Corbin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > > > > > I'm just starting to look at JMeter, and I have two questions (so far) > > > 1) Is there no way to rearrange elements of the tree?
