Jmeter - Inline evaluation error in Beanshell Assertion

Question

I am getting this error, and cannot figure out what wrong I am doing:

Error invoking bsh method: eval In file: inline evaluation of: ``import java.util.Set; import java.util.Map; import java.util.List;  try { //   Map . . . '' Encountered "String" at line 17, column 9.

This is the code that I am using:

import java.util.Set;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.List;

try
{
//  Map<String,List<String>> map = new HashMap<String,List<String>>();

//  map = vars.getObject("headerMap");
    boolean isHeaderValid = false;
    
//  String apiKeySent = "${x_api_key}"
//  String clientIdSent = "${X_IBM_Client_id}"
//  String clientSecretSent = "${X_IBM_Client_Secret}"

    String apiKeySent = vars.get("x_api_key")
    String clientIdSent = vars.get("X_Client_id")
    String clientSecretSent = vars.get("X_Client_Secret")

    log.info("apiKeySent: " + vars.get("x_api_key"))
    log.info("clientIdSent: " + vars.get("X_Client_id"))
    log.info("clientSecretSent: " + vars.get("X_Client_Secret"))
    
    if(apiKeySent != "")
    {
        apiKeyRec = vars.get("apiKeyRec")
        isHeaderValid = apiKeySent.equals(apiKeyRec)
    }
    Failure = isHeaderValid
}
catch(Exception e)
{
    log.debug("Error in verification: ",e)
}

Could anyone please help me in figuring this out? Have been stuck at this for ages.

It looks like you are forgetting to end all of your statements with semicolons from line 12 on. Add semicolons and let me know how that works!

You need to add semicolons like this

import java.util.Set;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.List;

try
{
//  Map<String,List<String>> map = new HashMap<String,List<String>>();

//  map = vars.getObject("headerMap");
    boolean isHeaderValid = false;

//  String apiKeySent = "${x_api_key}"
//  String clientIdSent = "${X_IBM_Client_id}"
//  String clientSecretSent = "${X_IBM_Client_Secret}"

    String apiKeySent = vars.get("x_api_key");
    String clientIdSent = vars.get("X_Client_id");
    String clientSecretSent = vars.get("X_Client_Secret");

    log.info("apiKeySent: " + vars.get("x_api_key"));
    log.info("clientIdSent: " + vars.get("X_Client_id"));
    log.info("clientSecretSent: " + vars.get("X_Client_Secret"));

    if(apiKeySent != "")
    {
        apiKeyRec = vars.get("apiKeyRec");
        isHeaderValid = apiKeySent.equals(apiKeyRec);
    }
    Failure = isHeaderValid;
}
catch(Exception e)
{
    log.debug("Error in verification: ",e);
}

Since JMeter 3.1 you should be using JSR223 Test Elements and Groovy language for scripting so consider migrating to JSR223 Assertion and Groovy

Your script can be simplified to

AssertionResult.setFailure(vars.get('x_api_key') == vars.get('apiKeyRec'))

And you don't even need any scripting for comparing 2 variables, it can be done using "normal" Response Assertion

Adding semicolons worked! Thank you very much. – V.Bhanderi Jun 10 '21 at 06:25 — V.Bhanderi, Jun 10 '21 at 06:25
Also, thank you for the suggesting the best practices. – V.Bhanderi Jun 10 '21 at 06:26 — V.Bhanderi, Jun 10 '21 at 06:26
