Package org.apache.jmeter.functions

Class XPath

java.lang.Object
org.apache.jmeter.functions.AbstractFunction
org.apache.jmeter.functions.XPath
All Implemented Interfaces:
org.apache.jmeter.functions.Function
@AutoService(org.apache.jmeter.functions.Function.class) public class XPath extends org.apache.jmeter.functions.AbstractFunction
The function represented by this class allows data to be read from XML files.

Syntax is similar to the CVSRead function. The function allows the test to line-thru the nodes in the XML file - one node per each test, e.g. inserting the following in the test scripts: 


 ${_XPath(c:/BOF/abcd.xml,/xpath/)} // match the (first) node
 ${_XPath(c:/BOF/abcd.xml,/xpath/)} // Go to next match of '/xpath/' expression
NOTE: A single instance of each different file/expression combination is opened and used for all threads.
Since:
2.0.3
