[feature] Add descriptions to User Variables element

[AntonioSun]

Please add the description field to argument, which currently only allow name & value.

It'll be the extra <stringProp name="Argument.desc">descriptions</stringProp> field in JMeter.

thanks

Hi, can you specify where you would like to have it? Currently only User Variables element has arguments where you can define description e.g.

plan {
    variables {
        variable name: 'test', value: 'test', description: 'test'
   }
}

The argument keyword in Test Plan and Backend Listener doesn't have that field (at least in GUI). Would you like to have such possibility in Test Plan and Backend Listener?

[AntonioSun]

Ah, good point -- didn't know that argument are used in so many places.

The User Variables element is all that I care for the descriptions, for anything else, whether you want to enforce validation or not, I'll leave it with you, :)

[AntonioSun]

Ah, Just realized that I made the wrong request -- not Test Plan and Backend Listener's argument, but User Variables element's variable. Changing it in OP...

[AntonioSun]

I only see variables in

https://github.com/smicyk/groovy-jmeter/wiki/reference#variables

and it is having entirely different fields.

Currently only User Variables element has arguments where you can define description e.g.

plan {
    variables {
        variable name: 'test', value: 'test', description: 'test'
   }
}

So if it is already done, maybe it is just to update the doc to close this issue.

Yep, it is already done.

So feel free to close it any time then.

OK. I think you need this https://github.com/smicyk/groovy-jmeter/wiki/reference#variable. I see now that I have problem with this reference page as there couple of links which points to the different places.

Anyway I will close the issue since the feature is available.
