The recorded the script and it was working on windows 7 machine. But now the script is not getting executed correctly in windows 10. The result is passed but aftual executions is not taking place. Also I tried to record new script on windows 10 but the script is not getting recorded. I am using the latest jmeter version. Could you please help me.
Jmeter should work fine on windows 10.
Cross check if you are able to access application (with or without proxy). If application is accessible through proxy, you need to open jmeter with proxy command.
Ensure you imported jmeter root certificate in browser.
You need to import JMeter's self-signed certificate into your browser. The file is called ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt and it's being created in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation when you start HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder.
Check HTTPS recording and certificates chapter of the above article for the exact steps of certificate installation for different browsers.
Mozilla Firefox and derivatives have their own certificate storage, other browsers use Windows certificate storage, you can inspect it using Certificate Management Tool
If JMeter's certificate is not there - you will need to install it.
Be aware that there is an easier way of recording a JMeter test which doesn't require configuring proxies or installing certificates: JMeter Chrome Extension, just install it, start recording and perform your scenario steps in browser

I am trying to do record a test script using JMeter (version 4) Test Script Recorder for performance testing of my application. After configuring the proxy, The recorder is not recording my application URL running on localhost in Internet Explorer (IE 9). But other URLs are getting recorded in JMeter. I tried to record my application using Chrome which is working fine.I have unchecked the Bypass proxy server for local address in Proxy settings.
I recommend you to use Mozilla Firefox to record your script because Firefox allows you to manage proxies and certificates independently of system settings.

Apache JMeter HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
JMeter Recording Guide
Make sure to check Use the same proxy server for all protocols box in the "Advanced" tab of the Internet Explorer proxy settings and there are no localhost, 127.0.0.1, etc. in the "Exceptions"
Some applications cannot route traffic to a local proxy server so you may need to add a loopback adapter
If you're recording an application which operates over HTTPS protocol you will need to install JMeter's self-signed certificate into Trusted Root Certification Authorities:
It doesn't really matter which browser you're using for recording as applications mostly differentiate the browsers basing on User-Agent header so you can record using whatever browser and then change User-Agent string in the HTTP Header Manager to IE9
According to JMeter Best Practices you should always be using the latest version of JMeter so consider upgrading to JMeter 5.0 (or whatever is the latest version available at JMeter Downloads page)
I am trying to test mobile application using jmeter Test Script Recorder but When i set proxy in my mobile and then I tried to captured, It shows all the time "No internet connection". I have set correct ip and port number.
Can anyone help me ?
There is more than one mobile operating system and troubleshooting options differ depending on vendor and OS.
Double check that you actually started HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and there are no modal dialogs with warnings/errors and nothing suspicious in jmeter.log file
JMeter itself must have internet connectivity, if your machine is behind the corporate proxy - you will need to apply some extra configuration
Check if you can record anything using web browser on mobile device. Start with HTTP-based simple site i.e. http://example.com
If your application is using HTTPS protocol you will need to install JMeter's self-signed certificate onto the device, the file is called ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt and it's being generated in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation when you start HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and you need to transfer it to your device somehow (bluetooth, email, whatever) and follow your OS dialog to get it installed and trusted
For certain Android versions you might need to use a 3rd-party tool like ProxyDroid in order to proxy HTTPS traffic
For iOS devices you will need to "tell" that you trust JMeter's certificate under Settings -> General -> About -> Certificate Trust Settings
See the following materials for more information:
HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder user manual entry (pay attention to HTTPS recording and certificates chapter)
Apache JMeter proxy Step-by-step
You can consider using a cloud-based proxy service, in this case you will not have to worry about certificates generation and installation and will have confidence that the device will have Internet connectivity. As a bonus you will have possibility to export recorded script in "SmartJMX" mode with automatic detection and correlation of any dynamic parameters.
Above mentioned privacy error is displaying while I tried to record some scenarios in Apache JMeter 4.0. I have installed ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA certificate in my local bin path of JMeter folder and imported in Trusted Root Certification Authorities folder in chrome.
And myself using Chrome : Version 66.0.3359.27 (Official Build) dev (32-bit) to recording purpose in JMeter. Also given 8080 as a port number in both proxy settings in chrome and JMeter - Test Script Recorder.
Still can't understand why I can't record several actions, as I did same thing in previous versions of Apache JMeter. So please let me know the solution for it.
You can use the following workarounds:
Just type badidea anywhere in the page and you will be able to proceed.
Launch Chrome with --ignore-certificate-errors command-line argument
Switch to alternative way of recording a JMeter test using i.e. JMeter Chrome Extension, in this case you won't have to worry about configuring proxies and/or SSL certificates.
Is it possible to record httpS requests of a native app (IOS or Android) with JMeter? I tried some ways that I found but, I've not resolved the problem..
Use jmeter 3 with Java 7 or 8, it creates a crt file in jmeter/bin folder. It is the CA that creates the certificates.
Send this file by mail and open it in Android / iOS then install it.
In test script recorder, put in the dedicated field HTTPS domains , the domains you are trying to hit, see:
-http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#HTTP(S)_Test_Script_Recorder
Restart Ipad/Android and jmeter test script recorder and try again.
to do this, you have to make your device trust the Jmeter Proxy CA.
So, you have to import the Jmeter CA certificate from
$JmeterHome/bin/ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt
into the device.
I remember this is an area where things improved a lot recently, so be sure to have the last version installed.
Try deleting ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt, JMeter's self-signed certificates have very limited life time (I recall something like 1 week), so if your certificate is older you might have problems installing it into browsers and/or mobile devices or it won't decrypt SSL traffic. The file will be re-created next time you start HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
There is an alternative way of recording the mobile traffic by using your personal cloud proxy. Moreover, it will perform automatic correlation for you so you won't have to worry not only about SSL certificates, but also about Regular Expression extractor, JMeter Variables, etc. Check out How to Cut Your JMeter Scripting Time by 80% article for details.
If none of the above helps, take the following troubleshooting steps:
Add View Results Tree listener as a child of the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder. In case of any problems with the recording a request it should display the error details.
Check your mobile device logs during failed certificate installation attempt. You may need to install Android and iOS developer tools for this.
Make sure that your application is really uses HTTP or HTTPS protocols as JMeter supports only these 2.
I am testing performance of mobile app via jmeter for android mobile app. FOr most of the apps installed in my mobile device, I am receiving below error message.
Software caused connection abort: recv failed
ensure browser is set to accept the JMeter proxy certificate.
Please help me to know how to resolve this error, while testing with mobile app.
Well have you done what the error message says e.g. have you installed the JMeter CA certificate ? look at this guide and check if you have followed the steps correctly [Apache JMeter HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder] (https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/jmeter_proxy_step_by_step.pdf) especially this step :
Return to HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, and click the “Start” button at the bottom.
This will start the JMeter proxy server which is used to intercept the browser requests.
A file called ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt will be generated in jmeter/bin folder.
Install this certificate in your browser, if you don't know how to do it, read “
Installing the
JMeter CA certificate for HTTPS recording
” in : http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#HTTP%28S%29_Test_Script_Recorder
When you start JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder it generates a dummy certificate in order to be able to decrypt SSL traffic.
Locate ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt file in JMeter's /bin folder (it may live in other location if you run JMeter i.e. from desktop shortcut)
Install it onto your device (the easiest way is sending it to yourself via email, open the email on device and click on the attachment)
After certificate installation device should be
