title: JMeter cannot assert Http response Code 423
body: <p>I'm trying to assert http response codes in JMeter.
  I think this is really simple, but I encountered a problem I cannot fix.</p>
  
  <p>My server can return 2 response codes: 200 and 423.
  There is no problem with 200, it just works, but I cannot assert 423, I don't know why.</p>
  
  <p>I tried response assertion with the following configurations:</p>
  
  <p>Field to test: Response Code, 
  Pattern Matching Rules: Contains</p>
  
  <p>Patterns to test:
  200 - works
  423 - does not work
  200|423 - 200 works, 423 does not work (wtf?)</p>
  
  <p>I also tried BeanShell Assertion with </p>
  
  <pre><code>Failure = !(ResponseCode.contains("200") || ResponseCode.contains("423"));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It does not work, too.
  Also I tried to match with the response message to contain "Locked" - does not work.
  The server Response looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Thread Name: 10 Users, 100 Repeats 1-10

  HTTPSampleResult fields:

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The response code is marked blue for a reason in Sampler Result. Don't know why.
  I'm also logging the response code via Beanshell PostProcessor. It is 423...</p>
  
  <p>Finally I'm asking here for your help.
  I have no idea what the problem is or could be.
  Thanks in advance.</p>
