Extracting value from HTML Responce using Regular expression in JMETER?

Question

I am getting response from Jmeter like this:

<input type="hidden" id="queueItemId" name="queueItemId" value="3256"/>

I wanted to get value 3256 from this and store it in a variable. Then i can use this variable further use like ${variable}. For this i am using RegularExpressionExtractor in scope of the Sampler.

Please give me the regular expression to extract this value.

Answer 1

Try something like:

encounterId=([0-9]+)

and use group 1 as the result.

Answer 2

Better than using regular expression to extract that value I would suggest using XPath Extraction like this:

//form[@name='MyForm']//input[@name='queueItemId']/@value

Where MyForm is your form name, replace with whatever you have.
