I am looking into whether I can use JMeter for load testing of a server.
I read that I can set it up as proxy to “record” a flow but I am not sure on the following.
Assume that I record a flow for 1 user which is like the following: 

HTTP-1 req <data>    
HTTP-1 reply  
HTTP-2 req <data>    
HTTP-2 reply  
HTTP-3 req <data>    
HTTP-3 reply

Now in the data which is an XML fragment there is an item that is unique for each user e.g. <user-id>AAA1</user-id>
Question: Once the flow has been “recorded” and I want to simulate e.g. 50 concurrent users against my real server, is it possible each “user” to send the data with a separate/different user-id? E.g. for first user it will be AAA1 as in the test case. For second user it will be AAA2 etc?

    JMeter can do this.

    To send a different user-id:

    • Use a CSV Data Set config, in it declare userId as a var , set sharing to all threads

    • For each HTTP-N req , Use HTTP Sampler with Post Body mode, and use userId as a var : ${userId} in XML body

    Depending on wether you use or not HTTP Session add a Cookie Manager
