Jmeter Current Thread Number?

For those looking for the number of active threads in the entire test plan, not just a particular ThreadGroup.

${__groovy(org.apache.jmeter.threads.JMeterContextService.getNumberOfThreads())}

The thread number is available as:

${__threadNum}

See: functions reference


While the above-mentioned ${__threadNum} will work in many places within jMeter, you'll need to use something else where it is not allowed, e.g., script elements within Pre/Post-Processors.

This answer explains how to get thread number or count within such a script in jMeter.

To get the number of the current thread (out of 5 in your case) use ctx.getThreadNum() which will get the number of the thread.

To get the total number of threads being used by jMeter you can use ctx.getThreadGroup().getNumThreads() or ctx.getThreadGroup().getNumberOfThreads() for total active threads.
