Jmeter saving the results of recording

Question

Is there a way to save results of recording as well? I have to record it several times if I forget not to close the window, which I always do.

Answer 1

JMeter has an inbuilt functionality to save the recording. Maybe you can follow the content that is available on this page. http://www.codetut.com/2017/10/saving-jmeter-recording.html

Answer 2

The recorded activity will automatically save under your Test Plan.You will find all the recorded samples under the "Recording Controller"**After you stop recording you will see the recorded script in JMeter with all your activity in the browser.It will automatically update under **Thread Group.This script will contain all your page requests during browsing activity.

Here is the step by step process of recording browsers action.

Step1: Open Firefox browser and from Network Connection settings configure the proxy server as HTTP Proxy: 127.0.0.1, Port: 8888

Step2: Run your Jmeter.bat file and open Templates under File dropdown list and click "Create".

Step3: Expand Work Bench and select "HTTP(s) Test Script Recorder". And click "Start" at the bottom of the page.You will have two pop up to Allow Firewall and Temporary Root CA Certification Installation.Allow all those and now go to your browser and do your browser activity.When it's done "Stop" the HTTP(s) Test Script Recorder.

Step4: After this you will get the recorded script in JMeter with all your activity in the browser.It will automatically update under Thread Group.This script will contain all your page requests during browsing activity. Sample script after recording is shown below.

So after finishing your recording you will get the Recorded Script as a .jmx file after saving.

You would also like to go through the Apache documentation of HTTP(s) Script Recorder for further details.
