JMeter 3.0 testplan doesn't work in non GUI mode

The plan runs fine in GUI mode. It also runs in non GUI-mode, but doesn't send proper(?) HTTP requests...

This is how I launch it: sh jmeter.sh -n -t thread-test.jmx -l thread-test.csv

When running in the GUI the request is correct:

GET http://www.bing.com/

[no cookies]

Request Headers:
Connection: keep-alive
Host: www.bing.com
User-Agent: Apache-HttpClient/4.5.2 (Java/1.8.0_73)

But when run using non GUI-mode the request has no data to display: No data to display

The sampler result looks like this:

Thread Name: Thread Group 1-1
Sample Start: 2016-11-01 15:24:04 CET
Load time: 141
Connect Time: 0
Latency: 141
Size in bytes: 85790
Headers size in bytes: 0
Body size in bytes: 0
Sample Count: 1
Error Count: 0
Data type ("text"|"bin"|""): text
Response code: 200
Response message: OK

Response headers:

SampleResult fields: ContentType: DataEncoding: null

Any idea? I'm stumped...

Here's the test plan:

Solution

  • There's nothing wrong here.

    In GUI mode, View Results Tree shows all fields.

    In non GUI mode, the output you have set for View Results Tree is CSV which does not store all fields like response data, encoding ...

    That's why you don't have all data.

    To have what you want, click on "Configure" button in View Results Tree and select XML fields. Rename you file to thread-test.xml.
