I'm having a scenario where I want to upload a file to the web page. I recorded the scenario using the Blazemeter plugin and when I set the parameter name in the HTTP Request I have a problem. When I inspect the uploading element(upload button) it is not consistent with the name attribute. Then how can I set the parameter name?
Your screenshot doesn't show the HTML DOM Input FileUpload Object so I'm afraid no one can help.
I would recommend just recording your file upload request using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, JMeter is smart enough to detect the parameter name on its own.
Just make sure you copy your image to Jmeter's "bin" folder prior to recording as certain browsers don't report the full path of the file being uploaded therefore JMeter might fail to properly record the file upload event if the file is not present in its working directory.
See Recording File Uploads with JMeter guide for detailed instructions on setting up JMeter for recording file upload events.

I have followed all the proxy setting guidelines prior to recording.
I am trying to Record a Http .jsp page which has backend JavaScript:PageAction(Action,Page) for each Page link on the website. I see when I click on links on the website, JMeter is not recording(capturing) the pages I navigated. Pls let me know, if there is any option.
First of all check if clicking this link really triggers a HTTP request using your browser developer tools as if nothing is happening, i.e. in case of anchor links which point to the specific part of the current document or executing client-side JavaScript you won't be able to record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder.
If there is a request but JMeter doesn't capture it - first of all check jmeter.log file for any suspicious entries. You might need to increase JMeter log verbosity for the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder by adding the next line to log4j2.xml file:
<Logger name="org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.proxy" level="debug" />
When I launch my application through JMeter in a browser - contents of the Login page are not displayed.
So I recorded a very basic scenario - just launching the Login page of my application through fiddler and imported it as a jmx file to JMeter. When I run the script, I see that the script fails.
If JMeter is not able to launch the page while recording, will JMeter to able to run a script that is recorded from Blazemeter/Fiddler for the same page?
As per JMeter project main page:
JMeter is not a browser, it works at protocol level. As far as web-services and remote services are concerned, JMeter looks like a browser (or rather, multiple browsers); however JMeter does not perform all the actions supported by browsers. In particular, JMeter does not execute the Javascript found in HTML pages. Nor does it render the HTML pages as a browser does (it's possible to view the response as HTML etc., but the timings are not included in any samples, and only one sample in one thread is ever displayed at a time).
So JMeter will download the DOM and the scripts (as well as images, fonts, styles, sounds, etc.) given you "tell" JMeter to do this via HTTP Request Defaults
however it won't execute the JavaScript.
If your scripts don't generate any network requests - you can just skip it as scripts are executed in browser context so you should not be too interested in the timings. If the scripts are triggering network requests - you should be able to record them using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and add them after the "main" request which gets the content of your login page.
You can put the "main" and the "scripts" request(s) under the Transaction Controller - this way you will also get "cumulative" time of their execution.
I am trying to record upload functionality from my web application. This Web page has telerik file explorer which as upload functionality if i run Jmeter and try to record it does not allow to upload , it does not give any error just the file keep on uploading with no progress. If i close jmeter it uploads perfectly.
I saw in FileUpload tab file as blob not sure if that is the problem or how it can be achieved using Jmeter.
You should copy your file in jmeter/bin and upload the file in website from this folder
Unable to get all the content of the page in Jmeter responses (even not available in view page source)
We have scenario where need to assert the content displayed on the web page, this content/text doesn't show up in 'view page source' as well and not shows in the Jmeter response too.
Looks like this content/text is getting generated dynamically from .js file at the run time.
However if inspect the text element, it shows in DOM (F12>Elements).
Is it possible to get this kind of dynamically generated text by .js file through Jmeter response and assert.
Please guide.
I could achieve this by using Jmeter with Selenium, launched the browser and performed the scenario so that the run time page/all .js/dynamically generated data is captured under Jmeter responses and could assert.
Thanks for help.
I have Web Page which uses Ajax call for file upload using JSF primfaces component. I want to test this upload using Jmeter. Check this Link for Component https://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/file/upload/auto.xhtml
how can I replicate this using jmeter help needed in creating .jmx
Just record it using HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, it is smart enough to capture the request and convert it into the relevant HTTP Request sampler.
Make sure you copy the file, you are uploading to the "bin" folder of JMeter installation, otherwise you may face an issue during the recording as JMeter won't be able to locate the file. see Recording File Uploads with JMeter article for more details.
