Obviously, I know that I have response time in .jtl file and in listener called Aggregate report, but I'm looking for way to get reponse time of request to variable.

You can do it as follows:
- Add Beanshell PostProcessor as a child of the request
Put the following code into PostProcessor's "Script" area:
vars.put("responseTime", String.valueOf(prev.getTime()));
It will get elapsed time for the sampler (in milliseconds) and store it into ${responseTime}
variable. You can add sampler label as prefix or postfix to distinguish response times for different samplers.
prev
is a shorthand for parent SampleResult instance.
See How to Use BeanShell: JMeter's Favorite Built-in Component for comprehensive information on Beanshell scripting in JMeter tests.

Thank you , it's exatcly what I was looking for, but generally I've got question : Why did you use , String.valueOf before (prev.getTime), Does it necessary? – Kac Jan 18 '16 at 12:32

There are 2 methods: `vars.put(String, String)` - in that case cast to string is mandatory, and `vars.put(String, Object)` - cast is not necessary. See [JMeterVariables class JavaDoc](https://jmeter.apache.org/api/org/apache/jmeter/threads/JMeterVariables.html) - `vars` is a shorthand to its instance – Dmitri T Jan 18 '16 at 13:38

Dmitri, tkank You for explanation, this solution is correct when I want to get response time of previous request,but now I wonder how to get response time for whole sample , in my case for Transaction controller, which consist of three requests? – Kac Jan 25 '16 at 10:05
