  - ### execute

    public String execute(SampleResult previousResult, Sampler currentSampler) throws InvalidVariableException

    N.B. execute() should be synchronized if function is operating with non-thread-safe objects (e.g. operates with files).

    JMeter ensures setParameters() happens-before execute(): setParameters is executed in main thread, and worker threads are started after that.
    Specified by:
      `execute` in interface `Function`
    Specified by:
      `execute` in class `AbstractFunction`
    Parameters:
      `previousResult` - The previous `SampleResult`
      `currentSampler` - The current `Sampler`
    Returns:
      The replacement value, which was generated by the function
    Throws:
      `InvalidVariableException` - - when the variables for the function call can't be evaluated
    See Also:
      - `Function.execute(SampleResult, Sampler)`

  - ### setParameters

    public void setParameters(Collection<CompoundVariable> parameters) throws InvalidVariableException
    Note: This is always called even if no parameters are provided (versions of JMeter after 2.3.1)
    Specified by:
      `setParameters` in interface `Function`
    Specified by:
      `setParameters` in class `AbstractFunction`
    Parameters:
      `parameters` - The parameters for the function call
    Throws:
      `InvalidVariableException` - - when the variables for the function call can't be evaluated
    See Also:
      - `Function.setParameters(Collection)`

  - ### getReferenceKey

    public String getReferenceKey()
    Return the name of your function. Convention is to prepend "__" to the name (ie "__regexFunction")
    Specified by:
      `getReferenceKey` in interface `Function`
    Specified by:
      `getReferenceKey` in class `AbstractFunction`
    Returns:
      The name of the function
    See Also:
      - `Function.getReferenceKey()`

  - ### getArgumentDesc

    public List<String> getArgumentDesc()
    Return a list of strings briefly describing each parameter your function takes. Please use JMeterUtils.getResString(resource_name) to grab a resource string. Otherwise, your help text will be difficult to internationalize. This list is not optional. If you don't wish to write help, you must at least return a List containing the correct number of blank strings, one for each argument.
    Returns:
      List with brief descriptions for each parameter the function takes
