Jmeter - Simple HTTP request - jmeter

I am very new to Jmeter and learning step by step.
Tried to create simple HTTP request in Jmeter and on Protocol tab- i have given "google.com".
while i run this, getting error as mentioned below:
Response code : Non HTTP response code : java.net.Malformed URL Exception
Response Message : Non HTTP response message: unknown protocol:google.com
Please help me to overcome this error and pass the test successfully.
Best Regards,

You can enter full URL as http://www.google.com to HTTP Request's Path field:
As a special case, if the path starts with "http://" or "https://" then this is used as the full URL.
Or enter domain name www.google.com in Server Name field:
Server
Domain name or IP address of the web server, e.g. www.example.com. [Do not include the http:// prefix.]
Protocol is used mainly to indicate if using HTTPS or HTTP
Protocol
HTTP, HTTPS or FILE. Default: HTTP
Notice if you want to reuse domain for several requests you can use HTTP Request Defaults
add a single HTTP Request Defaults element with the "Server Name or IP" field filled in. Then, when you add the 25 HTTP Request controllers, leave the "Server Name or IP" field empty. The controllers will inherit this field value from the HTTP Request Defaults element.

You need to put your application under test host into "Server Name or IP" field of the HTTP Request sampler:
Request and response can be visualized using View Results Tree listener.
Also be aware that you can quickly get started with JMeter by recording your test actions performed in browser.
Configure JMeter for recording. The easiest way is using JMeter Templates Feature
From JMeter main menu choose File -> Templates -> Recording and click "Create"
Open HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and click "Start"
Prepare browser for recording. Configure it to use localhost:8888 as the proxy server
Open your application under test in browser and perform an action - JMeter will record the requests under Thread Group -> Recording Controller

Get request parameters not appending properly in Jmeter

I have running the JMeter for performance testing,
For GET request the parameters are not appending properly
Get Request
Request's response
I don't know what i am missing.
I don't think it's a good idea to have protocol, host and port in "Path" field of the HTTP Request sampler, you should use the relevant inputs for this.
Moreover, having the full URL in the "Path" section might cause malfunction of i.e. HTTP Cookie Manager, HTTP Cache Manager, etc.
If you're uncertain about how to properly build the HTTP Request you can just record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder or JMeter Chrome Extension.

403 forbidden error in jmeter but api works fine in postman

I have an API that is running in GET method. It works fine in postman with 200 status code. But when I try to run the API in jmeter it throws 403 forbidden error. I have configured the debug sampler and tried to re-run the test. The debug sampler passed with 200 but http request still fails.
I have tried to correlate but even that fails.
I removed the port number from the HTTP request, it still fails.
I have added the authorization manager and enter the username and password still fails.
HTTP cookie manager and cache manager added in the script.
As per HTTP Status Code 403 description
The HTTP 403 Forbidden client error status response code indicates that the server understood the request but refuses to authorize it.
This status is similar to 401, but in this case, re-authenticating will make no difference. The access is permanently forbidden and tied to the application logic, such as insufficient rights to a resource.
Most probably you have inconsistencies between requests originated from Postman and from JMeter.
There are 2 possible causes:
You failed to configure JMeter's HTTP Request sampler properly. Given your request works fine in Postman you can try to record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Prepare JMeter for recording. The easiest way is going for JMeter Templates Feature
From JMeter's main menu choose File -> Templates -> Recording and click "Create"
Open HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and click "Start"
Prepare Postman for recording.
On Settings page set proxy host to 127.0.0.1 and port to 8888
Execute the request in Postman
JMeter will capture the request and store it under the Recording Controller
Postman uses specific Authorization header which cannot be recorded and replayed. Look into Authorization tab for the request and check which one is used, once you figure out - implement the same in JMeter:
Status Code 403 means you are not authorized to access it, so Ensure you are using the right Authorization for your GET call.
Add cookie manager in jmeter http sampler.

Apache Jmeter issue- Non HTTP response message: Malformed IPv6 address at index 8:"TestURL"

Facing below error as in HTTP Request Defaults I haven't provided any HTTP in the server name/IP-
Response code: Non HTTP response code: java.net.URISyntaxException
Response message: Non HTTP response message: Malformed IPv6 address at
index 8:"TestURL"
It normally happens when you put protocol into "Server Name or IP" field of the HTTP Request Sampler (or HTTP Request Defaults) . You should not put anything but application under test hostname or IP address there.
If you are parameterising the whole URL - use "Path" section instead.
Actually I believe it would be much easier just to record your test using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder. See Apache JMeter proxy Step-by-step guide for more details.

Jmeter - Non HTTP response code: org.apache.http.client.ClientProtocolException

I am getting this error in a sub request while navigating to a site.The sub-request is not captured in the script but I am able to see in Results Tree. Please refer below image for details: enter image description here
Could someone please help me resolve this issue?
You are not load testing fonts.googleapis.com host, are you?
I suggest adding the following entry to "URSs must match" section of your HTTP Request sampler (or better for HTTP Request Defaults)
^((?!googleapis).)*$
This will filter out the calls to googleapis host so you could focus on your application solely.
See Excluding Domains From The Load Test article for more detailed explanation and example on how to exclude several domains.
As i am suspecting "Attached image" URL is not useful for you, and you want to
exclude that So need to uncheck "Retrieve all embedded resources" form each
"HTTP REQUEST" and "HTTP REQUEST DEFAULTS"
The reason why you see this exception - the server terminated TCP connection established between client (your Jmeter) and server (googleapi). So, Jmeter expects correct HTTP answer but receives nothing (TCP RST or FIN flag, you can check it by parsing tcpdump).
Possible reasons:
I don't see any cookies sent within the request. As you said, it's a sub-request. So, it should contain session cookies established by server. You can use HTTP Cookie Manager for that.
Your Jmeter can't establish HTTPS connection (you do use HTTPS in this request). Make sure that all is OK with your certificates/keys.

How to avoid JMeter recording server name or IP in each HTTP Request node?

I tried creating a test plan as explained here. But the only problem I am facing is each HTTP request recording the ServerName or IP, so if I change the server name from "HTTP Request Defaults", all HTTP request is not getting modified. Are there any ways to over come this issue?
In the future, create the "HTTP REQUEST DEFAULT" item BEFORE RECORDING, and fill in your server name and protocol into the Default Request. This will keep the domain from being populated in every recorded request.
When you add each HTTP Request Sampler to the Thread Group, you can leave the Server Name or IP and Port fields blank. It will take these from the HTTP Request Defaults
If these were filled from recording, then the only way is to delete them from each sampler screen of the recorded jmx
