Redis Data Set ^{since 1.1.3}

Description

Redis Data Set requires JMeter 2.10 or superior. Redis Data Set lets you extract data from a Redis source in 2 modes:

• RANDOM_REMOVE uses a Redis List, once a value is retrieved it is removed from List, this is useful if you must ensure unique data is used accross test servers
• RANDOM_KEEP uses a Redis Set, retrieved value stays in Set, this is useful if you accept to have duplicate data accross test servers

To use a Redis Data Set you must at least configure:

• Redis Key : The list or set name
• Variable Names : The names of variables exported by Data Set to Test elements
• Delimiter : Separator used within row stored in Redis List or Set
• Get Mode : RANDOMREMOVE or RANDOMKEEP
• Redis Server Host
• Redis Server Port
• Data Base name

To use RANDOM_REMOVE mode you need to first insert data this way.

Inserting in a Redis List:

        JedisPoolConfig config = new JedisPoolConfig();
        // Replace by your redis host
        JedisPool pool = new JedisPool(config, "localhost");
        Jedis jedis = null;
        try {
            jedis = pool.getResource();
            for (int i = 0; i < 500; i++) {
                // ccList will be used in Redis Data Set
                jedis.lpush("ccList", ""+i);            
            }
        }finally {  
            if(jedis != null) {
                pool.returnResource(jedis);
            }
        }

You can then set Redis key to ccList.

In the below example, we declare a Redis Data Set which exports cardNumber variable from a ccList and then use it in a Debug Sampler:

To use RANDOM_GET mode you need to first insert data this way.

Inserting in a Redis Set:

        JedisPoolConfig config = new JedisPoolConfig();
        // Replace by your redis host

        JedisPool pool = new JedisPool(config, "localhost");
        Jedis jedis = null;
        try {
            jedis = pool.getResource();
            for (int i = 0; i < 500; i++) {
                // ccSet will be used in Redis Data Set
                jedis.sadd("ccSet", ""+i);            
            }
        }finally {  
            if(jedis != null) {
                pool.returnResource(jedis);
            }
        }

You can then set Redis key to ccSet In the below example, we declare a Redis Data Set which exports cardNumber variable from a ccSet and then use it in a Debug Sampler:
