I know how to save the results tree before doing recording in Jmeter. But is there a way to save the results after the recording?? Actually I have recorded a big scrip without knowing this.
Just add View Results Tree listener as a child of the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and you will be able to see request/response details and save them into a file if needed.
Just in case the above test plan was generated using JMeter Templates Feature

I am trying to record a script for web application (https protocol)using jmeter-5.3. The xml file in the view result tree of HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder is capturing all the calls. but once I finished my recording and check the xml file doesn't have the calls(the first 3-4 transaction calls) in the beginning of the script in the xml. why its happening and how can I fix it?
According to JMeter Best Practices you should be using the latest version of JMeter so consider upgrading to JMeter 5.4.3 (or whatever is the latest version which is available at JMeter Downloads page)
Check "Grouping" setting of the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, it might be the case you have Store 1st sampler of each group only selected and it can discard important requests:
Make sure to use Recording Template as it generates good and valid recording test plan
Check jmeter.log file for any suspicious entries
Try alternative way of recording a JMeter test i.e. JMeter Chrome Extension and see whether all requests which should be captured are captured.
I have recorded a script, successfully via Blazemeter Chrome Extension. But now, would like to identify the dynamic values to be correlated. Is there a way to view the recorded responses? It becomes very difficult otherwise.

I don't think BlazeMeter Chrome extension can store the responses, the options are in:
You can enable requests recording in Chrome Developer Tools and export requests/responses as HAR
You can switch to JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, if you add View Results Tree listener and configure it like
the recording.xml file will contain all request and response data
There is an alternative option of recording a JMeter test: BlazeMeter Proxy Recorder, it has nice feature of exporting recorded tests in "SmartJMX" mode with automatic detection and correlation of the dynamic parameters, see How to Cut Your JMeter Scripting Time by 80% article for more details.
I have been looking into postman and JMeter for a school project and I know that you can run a postman test and get results using JMeter. I have also been told that the main reason for JMeter is that you can run that test many times in JMeter unlike postman.
Does anyone know how to do this? got any links or resources you can share or just know the answer yourself?
I have been searching online for answers and I have connected the 2 application through using the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder but this only provides me with 1 result and I have been unable to find anything that talks about using this to run the test many times.
If anyone is able to provide me with a solution it would be much appreciated
First of all you need to convert your Postman test into a JMeter test, the approach is as simple as running test in Postman using JMeter as the proxy:
Configure JMeter for recording. The fastest way is using JMeter Templates
feature
From JMeter's main menu choose File -> Templates -> Recording and click "Create". You should get a Test Plan structure like:
Expand HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and click "Start"
Prepare Postman for recording.
From Postman's main menu choose File -> Settings -> Proxy and configure it like:
Run your collection in Postman
JMeter should generate relevant HTTP Request samplers under the Recording Controller
Now expand Thread Group and set the desired number of threads (virtual users) and loops (iterations)
Run your test in JMeter
Inspect results using View Results Tree listener
More information: Building a Web Test Plan - Adding Users
After you record the script in JMeter, you can run multiple times in Thread Group element by (increasing Threads Number to run script with multi threads or) increasing Loop Count, if you want to just repeat the script
thread group element controls the number of threads JMeter will use to execute your test. The controls for a thread group allow you to:
Set the number of threads
Set the ramp-up period
Set the number of times to execute the test
I am able to record the jmeter script successfully from Mozilla.
But I am not able to run the JMeter script.
In the console, I am getting messages like thread group started and finished but
in the listeners, I am not getting any results.
Can anybody help me whats going wrong here?
Move your HTTP Request 22 /Bird/Login and 37 /Bird/Login under the Thread Group so your test would look like:
Also be aware that you can quickly and easily configure JMeter for recording using JMeter Templates feature, if you choose File -> Templates -> Recording from JMeter main menu and click "Create" - you will have a "good" Test Plan suitable for recording and replaying
You have put View Results tree as child the wrong thread group.
Due to scoping rules in JMeter, it doesn’t receive any SampleResult from the Recorded Samples you are repalying.
So move it so that it becomes a child of Test Plan and you’ll get what you want
I am now trying to use Apache JMeter HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, but I have a difficult problem!
I've done the following Settings in JMeter .
enter image description here
And I configured the proxy in firefox.
Then I recorded a simple script.
But when I replayed the script, it didn't work, and I got the following tips:
enter image description here
What should I do? Please give me some advice!Thanks!
I don't fully understand two things:
Why you are asking Badboy-related question in JMeter forum?
How it can be convenient to use 2 separate tools while JMeter has its own HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder?
So please retry recording using JMeter's Proxy Server and if the issue persists - come back here so we could take a look into the issue.
There is one more alternative solution for JMeter tests recording which used to work under any conditions: JMeter Chrome Extension, you can consider it as a fallback solution.
No one will ever read this or benefit from it, but just in case....
Right click your test plan and select Add > Listener > View Results Tree.
Re-run your script and read what's in the results tree.
