Sharing cookie values between thread groups in JMeter

Question

I have the following setup:

Thread A
  - Http Cookie Manager
  - Login Page
Thread B
  - Http Cookie Manager
  - Page to hit
  - Another page to hit
         


        

Answer 1

I should have been a little more clear in my question, but we got this fixed. Here is our solution:

Http Cookie Manager
Thread A - 1 Thread - 1 Loop Count
  - Login Page
      - BeanShell PostProcessor
            - props.put("MyCookie","${COOKIE_}");
Thread B - 50 Threads - Infinite Loop Count
  - BeanShell PreProcessor 
      - import org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.control.CookieManager;
        import org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.control.Cookie;
        CookieManager manager = sampler.getCookieManager();
        Cookie cookie = new Cookie("",props.get("MyCookie"),"","",false,0);
        manager.add(cookie);
  - Page to hit
  - Another page to hit, repeat as needed

Then there is a configuration change for JMeter needed:

Open up the jmeter.properties file and go to the line "CookieManager.save.cookies=false" and make it = true.

This will allow the login cookie in the first thread to be used in the second thread.
