Jmeter extraction and using on If Controller - json

Is there's a way I can simulate this scenario, Example If there's a value extracted it will execute "TC1" Request, but If I extracted blank value it will execute "TC2".

The easiest method which provides maximum flexibility is using Switch Controller
As per documentation:
If the switch value is out of range, it will run the zeroth element, which therefore acts as the default for the numeric case. It also runs the zeroth element if the value is the empty string.
If the value is non-numeric (and non-empty), then the Switch Controller looks for the element with the same name (case is significant). If none of the names match, then the element named "default" (case not significant) is selected. If there is no default, then no element is selected, and the controller will not run anything.
So given the following Test Plan structure:
Switch Controller, switch value - your extracted variable
Simple Controller with an arbitrary name
TC2 sampler(s) as child(ren) of the Switch Controller
Simple Controller with name default
TC1 sampler(s) as chidr(ren) of the Switch Controller

Make beam/dataflow Create.of(List<String>) node emit exactly the number of elements in the list

My beam/dataflow job starts with a single static entry passed in like this:
Pipeline p = Pipeline.create(options);
PCollection<String> initValue = p.apply(Create.of("MyStringValue"));
However when I run it (on DataflowRunner), the Create node produced by that statement emits multiple values. The longer I wait, the more times it emits the single value:
This doesn't appear to be an artefact as later in the pipeline I get duplicate/triplicate/.. elements. Beam also logs a warning:
Can't verify serialized elements of type BoundedSource have well defined equals method. This may produce incorrect results on some PipelineRunner
How do I make my Create.of with one value emit just one value to the pipeline?
Do I need to attach an equals method or point it towards the equals method for String values (if so, how)!?

Bash/Shell - Nested Variables for Dynamic UDeploy Property

I need a little help with a process we're trying to build that should be able to react dynamically.
The process goes a little something like this.
User will submit a process request against an environment, submitting an array of string values as a runtime value. The process will take these in, as an array in bash, and loop through them, checking them against a predefined string list for validity. Upon finding they are valid, reacting differently based off of which values are in the string.
Example:
User submits a process request with values "abc", "bcd", "cde", "def"
Values "abc", "bcd", and "def" are valid.
We do a bit of manipulation to make them usable:
echo ${p:inputArray}
inputArray="${p:inputArray}"
inputArray=${inputArray//]/}
inputArray=${inputArray//[/}
inputArray=${inputArray//,/}
inputArray=( "${inputArray[#],,}" )
Then loop through each value and react:
for inputValue in $inputArray; do
if [[ "${validInputArray[#]}" =~ "${inputValue}" ]]; then
// Check if value is the outlier case "A"
// Or if the value is normal (but multiple) case "B"
// If case "B" then we'll build a variable for it
// It should be something like ${p:environment/$inputValue.action}
This, ideally, would give me the value of ${p:environment/abc.action} for example. But it does not. It gives me a string. I have no way to evaluate the dynamically created property request, as all properties are evaluated at initialization and not on the fly.
We can handle it via a "case" method - but it's a bit ugly, and will only get uglier as our number of valid inputs grow.
Instead of sending it an array of values, you can configure UCD to prompt them for specific values. You can do this on the application process. That way, when the user kicks off the deployment, there is no guessing on the validity of the input.
On the process page of the application, click on the Application Process Properties link
From there, you can configure it to require a certain pattern (checked via regex), or explicit values from a drop down, raw text, dateTime, etc. Here, I've configured a property with a multi-select to allow specific JVM maximum heap values. By limiting this to specific values, you can avoid typos and failed deployments.
Once configured, when you launch your process, you are presented with the property in the interface:

JMeter- user defined variable not changing its value

I have a Test Plan containing one Thread Group whith one HttpRequest sampler, JRS223PreProcessor and one csv data set config. I need to read from csv, at run time,the current value of column 2 and use it in my JSR223 PreProcessor. In order to do this, I defined a variable on Test Plan:
name ${__CSVRead(C:/Users/marial/Desktop/csvs/csv_hotelCodeReq.txt,2)
In JSR223 PreProcessor I am taking it like this:
String name= new String(vars.get("name"));
I would expect this value to change on each line readed, but it didn't, it always take the first value encountered. Does anyone know why?
To be more specific, if I have the csv file :
1,2,firstName1:lastName1
3,2,firstName2:lastName2
and loop count = 2, users=1 than the values of name are:
loop1: firstName1:lastName1
loop2: firstName1:lastName1
The other values are correctly handled, so it goes to the next line.
According to User Defined Variables documentation:
Note that all the UDV elements in a test plan - no matter where they are - are processed at the start.
So your __CSVRead() function is evaluated only during test startup and only once
The solution would be moving the function into "Parameters" section of the JSR223 PreProcessor and you will be able to access the function output as Parameters in your Groovy script like:
String name = Parameters
Demo:
This way the __CSVRead() function will be executed each time the JSR223 PreProcessor is called. Check out Apache Groovy - Why and How You Should Use It article to learn more about Groovy scripting in JMeter

Reading RawRequest JSON parameter value in SoapUI changes its value

I'm trying to transfer parameter from RawRequest using SoapUI but when reading it, value changes.
The parameter is request ID (which is unique for every test), it is requested by every test case from Custom Properties, where it is stored as follows:
${=((System.currentTimeMillis().toString()).subSequence(4, (System.currentTimeMillis().toString()).length())).replaceFirst("0", "")}
Above generates number like this for example:17879164.
The problem starts, when I'm trying to transfer it using either in build in feature or Groovy script. Both read parameter incorrectly:
Following is how the parameter presents in RawRequest window:
This is how it is read in Transfer window in SoapUI:
And finally, how it is read by Groovy script:
Can any one explain, why this value despite being shown in SoapUI RawRequest window as 17879164 is then read as 17879178 using two different methods?
I think the clue might be, that when I'm using "flat number" as reqId and not the generated one, both methods work fine and return correct number. But in this case when it is RawRequest, I understand that it is set once and for all, so what is show in the window and what is being read, should be the same.
What you are seeing is a "feature" in SoapUI. Your transfer step will transfer the code, which will then get evaluated again, resulting in a different value.
What you need to do is:
Create a test case property.
Set the property from test case setup script to a value. So in your case, something like testCase.setPropertyValue("your_property", ((System.currentTimeMillis().toString()).subSequence(4, (System.currentTimeMillis().toString()).length())).replaceFirst("0", ""))
Anywhere in your test refer to the test case property ${#TestCase#your_property}... which is a fixed value at this point, so will be always the same.

Fluent bind not working as expected

Suppose I am binding using
bs.Bind(y)
.For(v => v.Visibility)
.To("Failures['TaxPercent'].Length")
.WithConversion("Visibility")
.WithFallback(false);
Where Failures is a dictionary which would contain the property name (e.g. TaxPercent) if, and only if, the property fails validation.
Therefore Failure['TaxPercent'] returns the validation failure message (e.g value missing).
I want to have an expandable textview in Android which is visible only when the error is detected. I used the above code and it is not working. The fallback value does not trigger when Failure['TaxPercent'] does not exist in the dictionary.
How do I get an expandable/collapsible textview based on the validation result using a dictionary in the viewmodel??? I would really like to use a dictionary because that would save me from creating IsErrorVisible for each property.
Oddly enough, using a dictionary works for retrieving the error message though, but not for visibility! In other words, this is working great
bs.Bind(y)
.For(v => v.Text)
.To("Failures['TaxPercent']");
Also, any reason why I cannot concatenate the binding, meaning can I do this???
bs.Bind(y)
.For(v => v.Text)
.To("Failures['TaxPercent']")
.For(v => v.Visibility)
.To("Failures['TaxPercent'].Length")
.WithConversion("Visibility")
.WithFallback(false);
EDIT
The error msg in the log is
MvxBind:Error:168.86 Problem seen during binding execution for binding Visibility for Failures['TaxPercent'].Length - problem ArgumentException: The value passed in must be an enum base or an underlying type for an enum, such as an Int32.
If the dictionary doesn't contain an entry for 'TaxPercent' then the expression Failures['TaxPercent'].Length will not evaluate (an exception will be throw) so UnsetValue will be used.
In the case of UnsetValue, the ValueConverter will not be called, and the Fallback will be used. This is the same pattern as in Wpf - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.dependencyproperty.unsetvalue(v=vs.110).aspx
For your particular situation, it looks like you could either:
change the Fallback to the correct value for the platform instead of to a boolean value (the question didn't specify which platform(s) you are using)
create a new Visibility ValueConverter that takes Failures as its binding source and 'TaxPercent' as its parameter
remove the .Length from your binding expression - just test on the existence of the entry.
you could switch to free text binding expressions - then you could do more complicated binding statements, including nested bindings, multiple value converters, multiple fallback values, ...
For this particular case, I would just drop the .Length
For "any reason why I cannot concatenate", that won't work as the return type of Bind is a single Fluent binding entry - not a Fluent binding set.
