Can you alter standard JMeter XML output in your plugin?

I made a custom SampleResult and have overriden the response data in the plugin. I used "JMeterUtils.setProperty(OUTPUT_FORMAT_PROP, XML);" to set the XML output in runtime. The problem is that when I run JMeter in non gui mode and run the tests, the output is in a format I don't need. (I don't want to save the saveconfig settings etc, only my response data). I also made a complete custom logging system for the tests, which is way more detailed than the standard logging and more in the specific way I want to log.

Although setting the save response data on true, it does not print it and the tag in the output is empty. Also, I think I found a few bugs in JMeter itself for writing to XML, sometimes it doesn't close it's tags like the 'label' tag.

What you are trying to do is not possible, as property jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format is used in a static block on load of SampleSaveConfiguration.

So switch format just put in user.properties:

  • jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=xml

If you use 2.13 version, there are no such bugs and if so you should open a bugzilla. I suspect issue is due to your custom code.
