<h2>Version 2.3.2</h2>

<h3>Summary of main changes</h3>

<h4>Bug fixes</h4>
|
2008-03-02 11:41:10 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
2008-05-14 06:11:33 +08:00
|
|
|
Version 2.3.1 changed the way binary and text content types were determined as far as the View Results Tree Listener was concerned:
|
2008-03-02 11:41:10 +08:00
|
|
|
originally everything except "image/" content types were considered text, but 2.3.1 introduced a check
|
2008-05-14 06:11:33 +08:00
|
|
|
for specific content types. This has caused problems,
|
|
|
|
|
as several popular types were omitted and these were no longer shown by default in the Response tab.
|
2008-03-02 11:41:10 +08:00
|
|
|
Rather than try to list all the possible text types, JMeter now just checks for the following binary types:
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>image/*</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>audio/*</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>video/*</li>
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
All other types are now assumed to be text.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2008-04-09 23:11:19 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
JMeter 2.3.1 introduced a bug in the Cookie Manager
|
|
|
|
|
- if "Clear Cookie each iteration" was selected, all threads would see the same cookies.
|
|
|
|
|
This bug has been corrected.
|
|
|
|
|

<h4>Improvements</h4>
|
2008-05-10 05:37:13 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The CSV Dataset configuration element has new file sharing options: per thread group, per thread, per identifier.
|
|
|
|
|
This allows for more flexible file processing, e.g. each thread can process the same data in the same order.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-12-13 20:42:16 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>Switch Controller now works properly with functions and variables,
|
|
|
|
|
and the condition can now be a name instead of a number.
|
|
|
|
|
Simple Controller now works properly under a While Controller</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2008-04-09 23:11:19 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>CSV fields in JTL files can now contain delimiters.
|
2008-05-14 06:11:33 +08:00
|
|
|
CSV and XML files can now contain additional variables (define the JMeter property <b>sample_variables</b>).</p>
|
2007-12-13 20:42:16 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2008-04-09 23:11:19 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>Response Assertion can now match on substrings (i.e. not regular expression).
|
|
|
|
|
Regex extractor can operate on variables.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
XPath processing is improved; Tidy errors are handled better.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Save Table Data buttons added to Summary and Aggregate reports to allow easy saving of the calculated data.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2008-05-16 23:51:32 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
HTTP samplers can now save just the MD5 hash of responses, rather than the entire response.
|
|
|
|
|
As a special case, if the HTTP Sampler path starts with "http://" or "https://" then this is used as the full URL,
|
|
|
|
|
overriding the host and port fields.
|
|
|
|
|
The HTTP Samplers can now POST multiple files.
|
|
|
|
|
Webservice(SOAP) Sampler can now load local WSDL files using the "file:" protocol.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
2008-05-08 10:15:58 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2008-04-09 23:11:19 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
View Results Tree Listener now uses Tidy to display XML.
|
|
|
|
|
This should allow more content to be displayed succesfully.
|
|
|
|
|
It also avoids the need to download remote DTD files, which can slow the rendering considerably.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
2008-02-21 00:10:49 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2008-05-16 23:51:32 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
MailReader sampler now supports POP3S and IMAPS protocols. Individual mails are now added as sub-samples.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2008-05-14 06:11:33 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Various improvements to the BSF Sampler: now supports Jexl, and Javascript bug works properly.
|
|
|
|
|
Added BSF PreProcessor, PostProcessor and Assertion test elements.
|
2008-05-16 23:51:32 +08:00
|
|
|
All now have access to "props" JMeter Properties object.
|
2008-05-14 06:11:33 +08:00
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-12-13 20:42:16 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>Number of classes loaded in non-GUI mode is much reduced.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2008-05-16 22:19:21 +08:00

<h3>Known bugs</h3>
|
2007-12-13 20:42:16 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2008-05-14 06:11:33 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The Include Controller has some problems in non-GUI mode.
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, it can cause a NullPointerException if there are two include controllers with the same name.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-12-13 20:42:16 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>Once Only controller behaves OK under a Thread Group or Loop Controller,
|
|
|
|
|
but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).</p>

<h3>Incompatible changes</h3>
|
2007-11-26 23:12:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<ul>
|
2007-12-05 05:26:35 +08:00
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
|
|
|
To reduce the number of classes loaded in non-GUI mode,
|
|
|
|
|
Functions will only be found if their classname contains the string
|
|
|
|
|
'.functions.' and does not contain the string '.gui.'.
|
|
|
|
|
All existing JMeter functions conform to this restriction.
|
|
|
|
|
To revert to earlier behaviour, comment or change the properties classfinder.functions.* in jmeter.properties.
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
2008-03-27 23:50:47 +08:00
|
|
|
<li>The reference value parameter for intSum() is now optional.
|
|
|
|
|
As a consequence, if a variable name is used, it must not be a valid integer.</li>
|
2008-04-23 20:22:09 +08:00
|
|
|
<li>The supplied TCPClient implementation no longer treats tcp.eolByte=0 as special.
|
|
|
|
|
To skip EOL checking, set tcp.eolByte=1000 (or some other value which is not a valid byte)
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
2008-04-30 19:33:20 +08:00
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
|
|
|
Leading and trailing spaces are trimmed from variable names in function calls.
|
|
|
|
|
For example, ${__Random(1,63, LOTTERY )} will use the variable 'LOTTERY' rather than ' LOTTERY '.
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
2008-05-16 01:25:12 +08:00
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
|
|
|
Synchronization has been removed from the RunningSample class (it was not fully threadsafe anyway).
|
|
|
|
|
Developers of 3rd party add-ons that use the class may need to synchronize access.
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
