Q5. What is use of timers in JMeter?
Ans. 
Timers in JMeter are used to simulate real user behavior by adding delays between requests.
• Timers help in controlling the load on the server by adding delays between requests.

• They can be used to simulate realistic user behavior by adding random or constant delays.

• Examples of timers in JMeter include Constant Timer, Gaussian Random Timer, and Uniform Random Timer.

Q2. What is correlation
Ans. 
Correlation is a statistical measure that describes the relationship between two variables.
• Correlation can range from -1 to 1, with 1 indicating a perfect positive correlation, -1 indicating a perfect negative correlation, and 0 indicating no correlation.

• Correlation does not imply causation, meaning just because two variables are correlated does not mean that one causes the other.

• For example, if there is a positive cor...read more

Q2. What is correlation and Parameterization?
Ans. 
Correlation is the process of extracting dynamic values from server responses and passing them to subsequent requests. Parameterization is the process of replacing hard-coded values in scripts with variables.
• Correlation involves identifying and capturing dynamic values such as session IDs, tokens, or timestamps from server responses.

• Parameterization involves replacing hard-coded values in scripts with variables to make...read more
