Split address into house#, streetname, zip5, zip4 in JMETER

Question

I have address example: 123 Main street, City 12345-8761 how can I split the above address into House# 123, Streetname: Main street, zip5-12345, zip4-8761 and I want to store these values in a variable and call those into XML request before I submit to service endpoint

Answer 1

It looks like the only way of achieving your goal is using JSR223 Test Elements and Groovy language

Example code:

def address = '123 Main street, City 12345-8761'

def numberAndStreet = address.split(',')[0].trim()
def cityAndZip = address.split(',')[1]

def houseNumber = (numberAndStreet =~ /(\d+)/)[0][1]
def street = numberAndStreet.replace(houseNumber, '').trim()

def zip = (cityAndZip =~ /(\d+-\d+)/)[0][1] 
def city = cityAndZip.replace(zip, '')

vars.put('houseNumber', houseNumber)
vars.put('street', street)
vars.put('zip', zip)
vars.put('city', city)

Demo:

You will be able to refer the extracted values referencing the following JMeter Variables

• ${houseNumber}
• ${street}
• ${zip}
• ${city}
