How to run one sample multiple times independent of the number of threads in Thread group in jmeter

Question

i have the need to run one http request sample more times than the rest of the samples in the Test group, for example, i need to run for 10 users, but for each of them, i need to run one of the samples multiple times, lets say 10, is there a way to achieve it?

1) I set "Number of Threads (Users)" in Thread group to 10, so i have 10 total users (with data taken for every thread from a CVS file, with equal number of rows and threads, so 1 thread is an unique data set.

2) I make some requests after, but for only one of the requests, i need to make it like 100 times in parallel for the same data for every thread, so in total, i will make 1000 (100 http requests for 10 unique users/threads) requests to that endpoint

Thanks in advance!

Edit: I found the loop controller, but its not making the 100 http requests at the same time for each thread in the thread group, it makes another one when the first ends

If I correctly got your requirements, to wit:

1. You need to execute one sampler more times than other samplers
2. The execution must occur at exactly the same moment

The most obvious choice would be either Parallel Sampler or Parallel Controller (depending on the nature of your requests). You can install both test elements using JMeter Plugins Manager:
