I put a Uniform Random Timer in each thread group with the following setting: Random Delay Maximum (in milliseconds): 15000.0 Constant Delay Offset (in milliseconds): 45000.0
I checked its source code and it seems that I should get a delay between 45 seconds to 1 minute. However, when I checked the logs, it seems that a lot of threads finished more than two requests in a minute. While I assume each thread can finish at most one request since each thread need to request a page, wait for response, and wait another 45-60 seconds, then request another page. Sample logs for a single thread is as follows: <sampleResult timeStamp="16:01:50:588" dataType="text" threadName="LearnerGroup2-1" label="/cthrc/" time="50" responseMessage="OK" responseCode="200" success="true"/> <sampleResult timeStamp="16:02:02:625" dataType="text" threadName="LearnerGroup2-1" label="/cthrc/common/login.do" time="30" responseMessage="OK" responseCode="200" success="true"/> <sampleResult timeStamp="16:02:16:874" dataType="text" threadName="LearnerGroup2-1" label="/cthrc/common/actLoginValidate.jsp" time="20" responseMessage="Moved" responseCode="302" success="true"/> <sampleResult timeStamp="16:02:24:415" dataType="text" threadName="LearnerGroup2-1" label="/cthrc/learners/home.do" time="80" responseMessage="OK" responseCode="200" success="true"/> <sampleResult timeStamp="16:02:33:467" dataType="text" threadName="LearnerGroup2-1" label="/cthrc/online/campus.do" time="100" responseMessage="OK" responseCode="200" success="true"/> <sampleResult timeStamp="16:02:40:537" dataType="text" threadName="LearnerGroup2-1" label="/cthrc/learners/profile.do" time="40" responseMessage="OK" responseCode="200" success="true"/> <sampleResult timeStamp="16:02:52:513" dataType="text" threadName="LearnerGroup2-1" label="/cthrc/learners/profileName.do" time="100" responseMessage="OK" responseCode="200" success="true"/> Is there something wrong with my understanding of Uniform Random Timer and/or JMeter request behaviour? I appreciate your help since this is the road block to my load testing. Have a good day.
