This is one step closer to solving my problem. However, I still have to somehow time
things correctly. For example, if my test plan had the following
TestPlan
ThreadGroup - 2 hour duration
Once Only Controller
HTTP Request - login
Run Controller - 1 hour 57 minutes ?
HTTP Request 1
HTTP Request 2
HTTP Request - logout
In Run Controller, I have to somehow make sure that I still have enough time to do the
logout before the entire simulation ends (as set in ThreadGroup) but also just enough
so that it doesn't do Run Controller again.
I suppose I can do the following:
TestPlan
ThreadGroup - loop once
Once Only Controller
HTTP Request - login
Run Controller - 2 hours
HTTP Request 1
HTTP Request 2
Once Only Controller
HTTP Request - logout
But I would like the overall test plan to run 2 hours and not just the requests in Run
Controller. This is probably the closest solution for now that I can settle with.
Again, a Finally Controller is what I need. It would be nice to have option to
complete a request and then jump to the Finaller Controller element when simulation is
due. Of course, to execute the Finally Controller, it would mean that the simulation
time is actually longer than initially specified. I will write up an enhancement
request.
If I were to start looking at how to implement a Finally Controller, where would be a
good place to start?
thanks,

This is like a loop controller, except that it runs for N seconds, instead
of N loops.
It should appear in the nightly builds
(http://gump.covalent.net/jars/latest/jakarta-jmeter-20/) in a day or so.
[The library zip can be picked up from
http://gump.covalent.net/jars/latest/jakarta-jmeter/ if you haven't already
got it - it rarely changes.]
Please remember that nightly builds are just that - they have not been
formally tested, and may not work at all.
If the build generally works, but the Runtime Controller has problems,
please log a bug.
