I am performing a search request in jmeter. So my test plan flow is home then login then product catalogue and then search. I tried to make a post request for search but it failing all the time. I used a CSV file so each time the query is changed. But then I used a get request and used the query variable in the search path like this search?query=${search_input}and then it passed but when i checked the html it is not the correct page. In the html response I also see this {{noSearchResults.query}}'. But if i put the url on the browser it works fine. Can you please help me with this?

  1. Double check that your ${search_input} variable has the anticipated value using Debug Sampler and View Results Tree listener combination

  2. It might be the case that your ${search_input} variable contains special characters which need to be URL-encoded so you might need to wrap the variable into __urlencode() function like:

    search?query=${__urlencode(${search_input})}

  3. JMeter automatically treats responses with status code below 400 as successful, if you need to add an extra layer of check for presence of the results or absence of {{noSearchResults.query}} - use Response Assertion
