Some extractors, such as security tokens, are critical for test case integrity. If a critical extractor is not found during a test run, then the iteration can't continue. This section describes how to mark an extractor as critical and the steps that will occur if it is not found during the test run.

Marking critical extractors

To mark an extractor as critical, set the Action if not found property to Abort iteration or Abort VU. The following behavior occurs if a critical extractor is not found in the response:

  • Abort iteration: The response that contains the extractor is marked as an error. The current iteration is marked as failed. Stops the current iteration and starts a new one.
  • Abort VU: The response that contains the extractor is marked as an error. The current iteration is marked as failed. Stops sending requests from this VU. 

  • No labels
