Add handling of sub-samples to the JSON Extractors

extractor wrong behavior

Hello,

In the attached test plan, there are Boundary Extractor, JSON Extractor and JSON JMESPath Extractor. Apply to options "MainSampleAndSubSamples", "MainSampleOnly" and "SubSamplesOnly" are used and extraction is done on "JSR223 Sampler - create JSON response" and its subsample that is created using JSR223 PP. The First 3 extractors of every kind are extracting values from "JSR223 Sampler - create JSON response" and another 3 from its subsample. The behavior of Boundary Extractor, JSON Extractor and JSON JMESPath Extractor is not the same. Please run the test and check Debug Sampler in VRT. Boundary Extractor works as expected but JSON Extractor and JSON JMESPath Extractor don't. Please refer to the attached image to see what is correct and what is wrong behavior.

P.S. Boundary extractor throws WARN message in logs if there is no match between boundaries.

WARN o.a.j.e.BoundaryExtractor: Boundary Extractor - BEcategoryFieldSubSamplesOnly: Error while generating result. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: bound must be positive
WARN o.a.j.e.BoundaryExtractor: Boundary Extractor - BEticker_langMainSampleOnly: Error while generating result. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: bound must be positive

Is this expected? IMO, it should be hidden like for other extractors.

Add handling of sub-samples to the JSON Extractors

As the UI suggests, the extractors should handle the selection of sub-samples.

@Nikola, could you test next nightly or build from trunk and report back, if it fixes your problem?

Note, I haven't changed Boundary Extractor.

    JSON Extractor and JSON JMESPath Extractor ignore sub-samples
    
    The UI for those elements suggest, that the extractors would
    look into sub-samples for matches (or even could be configured
    to use only values from the sub-samples). Adapt the implementation
    to make that assumption true.

Hi Felix,

I checked using provided example and real test plan using JSON path and it is fixed. Works as expected. Thank you.

> Note, I haven't changed Boundary Extractor.
OK. Will it be changed maybe?

Thanks for confirming the fix.

The boundary extractor will get its own bug report :)

    Skip empty extracted results on JSON Extractor and JSON JMESPath Extractor
    
    With the addition of more than one result for sub-samples, the extracted
    results can be empty. Those empty results have to be filtered away, or
    we get warnings in the logs.
