How can you send one email for all thread groups using jmeter?

Question

I am using smtp sampler in Jmeter to send email. The issue that I am having is: it is sending email for each thread group. If I have number of thread =5, ill be getting 5 emails. How can I send one email with attached report for large number of threads?

Answer 1

use tearDown thread group, in short it is more like junit's @AfterClass method....

A special type of ThreadGroup that can be utilized to perform Post-Test Actions. The behavior of these threads is exactly like a normal Thread Group element. The difference is that these type of threads execute after the test has finished executing its regular Thread Groups.

Answer 2

You can use If Controller and __threadNum() function to trigger the request which sends the email only for specific thread.

__threadNum() function basically returns current virtual user number (1 for first, 2 for second, etc.) so if you put the following line into the If Controller's "Condition" area:

${__threadNum} == 3

The children of the If Controller will be executed only for virtual user number 3.
