How to open and update json file with jmeter and then run the batch script

I am using jmeter 5.3 and I got my jmeter test, that uses data from pre-created JSON file. I would like to let jmeter to create this file before every test run. This includes:

  1. open existing JSON file
  2. update certain values in this file
  3. save and close the file
  4. run the batch file
  5. run the test

that first 4 steps should be executed just once, even I run test for more users. ( I suppose I could use extra thread for that)

I tried to use this sort of code, but it doesn't work.

import groovy.json.JsonSlurper

def jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper("cfg.json")

def taps_count = jsonSlurper.context.parameters.find { "globals" }
taps.count.value."random_taps" = 100

def period = jsonSlurper.context.parameters.find { "time_window" }
period.value."from" = "2020.12.14 08:40:00"
period.value."to" = "2020.12.14 08:45:00"



"script.bat".execute()
Solution

  • You need to change this line:

    def jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper("cfg.json")

    to this one:

    def jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper().parse(new File("cfg.json"))

    This is the very first and the most obvious error, if you experience further problems you will need to provide the contents of your cfg.json file
