Method Detail

• execute

  public String execute(SampleResult previousResult,
               Sampler currentSampler)
                 throws InvalidVariableException

  N.B. execute() should be synchronized if function is operating with non-thread-safe objects (e.g. operates with files).

  JMeter ensures setParameters() happens-before execute(): setParameters is executed in main thread, and worker threads are started after that.

  Specified by:

  execute in interface Function

  Specified by:

  execute in class AbstractFunction

  Parameters:

  previousResult - The previous SampleResult

  currentSampler - The current Sampler

  Returns:

  The replacement value, which was generated by the function

  Throws:

  InvalidVariableException - - when the variables for the function call can't be evaluated

  See Also:

  Function.execute(SampleResult, Sampler)

• setParameters

  public void setParameters(Collection<CompoundVariable> parameters)
                     throws InvalidVariableException

  Note: This is always called even if no parameters are provided (versions of JMeter after 2.3.1)

  Specified by:

  setParameters in interface Function

  Specified by:

  setParameters in class AbstractFunction

  Parameters:

  parameters - The parameters for the function call

  Throws:

  InvalidVariableException - - when the variables for the function call can't be evaluated

  See Also:

  Function.setParameters(Collection)

• getReferenceKey

  public String getReferenceKey()

  Return the name of your function. Convention is to prepend "__" to the name (ie "__regexFunction")

  Specified by:

  getReferenceKey in interface Function

  Specified by:

  getReferenceKey in class AbstractFunction

  Returns:

  The name of the funtion

  See Also:

  Function.getReferenceKey()

• getArgumentDesc

  public List<String> getArgumentDesc()

  Return a list of strings briefly describing each parameter your function takes. Please use JMeterUtils.getResString(resource_name) to grab a resource string. Otherwise, your help text will be difficult to internationalize. This list is not optional. If you don't wish to write help, you must at least return a List containing the correct number of blank strings, one for each argument.

  Returns:

  List with brief descriptions for each parameter the function takes
