JMeter – BeanShell Assertion
A JMeter assertion component called BeanShell Assertion uses scripts. It implies that you need to use one of the supported scripting languages to build the assertion logic yourself. This is generally useful when you need to create assertion or validation logic to suit your needs and you want to create a special algorithm that JMeter doesn’t yet offer. Using the BeanShell Assertion, you can design your own algorithm implementation.
