Thread groups no longer stop `forever loops`

[Filip Hanik]

Given the following scenario

I want to: Ramp up a thread group, when reached maximum threads then run for 1 minute

thread group with duration

  - single request

  - loop (forever)

    - single request

The JMeter ThreadGroup and the deprecated Stepping Thread Group both will stop the loops after the duration condition of the group has been met.

The Concurrency Thread Group will never exit the `loop`. Is this a bug or is there a different way to exit the loop, maybe using a while condition?

Thanks in advance

Filip

Hi,

There were fix recently released for this bug. Also, there is "Thread Iterations Limit" field at the bottom of CTG GUI.

Thanks Andrey,

I have confirmed that jmeter-plugins-casutg-2.5.jar fixes the bug. Thank you!

Unfortunately the "thread iterations limit" previously had the side effect of threads exiting early, so we abandoned those efforts.

"Thread iterations limit" still has that meaning for threads to finish earlier. It's just the purpose of Concurrency Thread Group to spawn new threads to maintain the specified concurrency.

You might find Arrivals Thread Group interesting for your efforts, since it spawns threads with specified rate and does not maintain concurrency.
