We use _StringFromFile to process randomly sorted account ids and PINs: * Create separate PIN and account files containing randomly ordered entries. * Use SFF in a User Parameters Pre-Processer to set up variables for each item. * Use the variables in the Samplers.
This gives repeatable test runs. And by dividing the files into chunks, we can use the start and loop count feature of SFF to use different sets for each file, so we can for example allow for the fact that the PINs can only be used once (without resetting the test database). Perhaps you can do something like that? By the way, SFF deliberately does not store the contents of the file in memory so that it does not matter how large the files are. S.
