Enhancement: "Assertion defaults" - component would be useful

[asfimport]

Jarno Pelkonen (Bug 14762): JMeter needs an "assertion defaults" component that can be put under containing containg controller (= any sampler or Thread group).

This easies building up test cases that do several requests and most of the responses are validated with the same logic. This is a common case with HTTP test cases.

"Assertion defaults" component could be a containing component, i.e. it would contain the actual assertions. Responses would be validated against:

• all assertions defined for the individual request (= the current way)
• plus againt all the assertions in the "assertion defaults" components in the request's parent nodes. By this way a Jmeter user could define default assertions at Thread group level and then more detailed assertions for samplers under the thread group.

Sebb (migrated from Bugzilla): This seems to happen by default now; also copy and paste works, so I'm closing the call, but feel free to re-open if there's something I've missed
