I need to iterate over the dataset that is given as csv file. Now I know that i can create a loop and insert Number of Iterations to the total number of records in my dataset. But i do not want the user to update number of iterations everytime the csv file is changed. Is there any way of finding End of file of CSV ? If yes, then how can i insert that in my request so that my request gets parametrized with subsequent rows of the dataset?

There is no direct support for adjusting test duration based on the size of a dataset, but there are two possible workarounds that I can think of


1. In your datasets always have the last record that has a specific value in one of the fields, for example, "end-of-data set". Then create a custom validator that checks for that value and stops the test http://support.stresstimulus.com/display/doc48/Response+Validators


2. You can write your scriptable component that programmatically determines the size of a data set and based on that adjusts a test duration or loop duration http://support.stresstimulus.com/display/doc48/Creating+External+Components


Unfortunately, we did not provide support for developing scriptable components on the public forum.
