Is there anyway to capture Pop-ups and Images (for ex: Image Printig) while creating a script on a dot net web page with Jmeter?
If you are using the HTTP proxy recorder, those things will be captured along with the rest.

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 recorded application. It record login get method page as the only html page. login post method pages not recorded instead it record as one authorization manager and some APIs. How can I load testing using only html pages. Now my record script seems full of APIs instead of .html pages. I asked to my developers. They told "In submit buttons they call APIs related to those pages". Help me to get out of this problem.
You must not record these requests to .js and woff2 as this is not how real browsers behave.
Real browsers execute main request to what you call "html page" followed by concurrent download of "embedded resources", in your case JavaScript and Font files. To make your JMeter test to behave more like a real browser you need to:
Exclude these requests from recording. Click "Add suggested excludes" button in the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
When you finish recording and will be preparing your script for execution add HTTP Request Defaults to your Test Plan, switch to the "Advanced" tab and tick Retrieve All Embedded Resources and Parallel Downloads boxes
This way you will be properly handing JavaScripts, Fonts, images, styles, whatever in your load test.
'Top' button is not functioning/doesn't function with Jmeter recording however the same button works fine without Jmeter recording (works fine with normal internet proxy). We have two buttons 'Load More' and 'top', 'Load more' able to load the page with other results but when clicked on 'top' nothing happens whereas it is working fine in normal browser.
Please suggest if i need to set something. I have even tried by including URL pattern as .*
JMeter is not a browser. It will not capture the client-side activities. To capture the performance metrics of client-side you can use below options:
JMeter WebDriver Sampler
JSR223 Sampler
You can develop your own custom sampler
Check this article in Blazemeter for more details.
I always use Blazemeter Chrome Add-on which is a hassle-free way to record business scenarios.
Web page does not respond while changing recording controller.
I am trying to record a webpage and differentiate each page with a different recording controller.
However after recording the first page I change Target controller to a different recording controller so that I can differentiate each page separately.
After I change the target controller the webpage does not respond to any clicks.
Not clear what you are trying to do.
However, you have stop and then start the recording to make the proxy aware of any change.
My application is developed in .NET, When i Record with Jmeter, Application is not displaying a popup after click Submit button on the page. it is recording all the other action. But after click a popup window is expecting which is not displaying
Step 1. Login application
Step 2. Input some data and click on Submit
Step 3. A popup should display which is not comming while record
Thanks
JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder is very good, but in some cases it behaves odd.
Consider the following alternative methods of recording a scenario:
Use JMeter Google Chrome Extension - no proxies, no SSL certificates, no extra configuration.
Use Badboy recording functionality - Badboy has an option to export recorded script into a JMeter .jmx file
Use external proxy like Fiddler or Wireshark in combination with online network dumps to JMeter scripts converter
