Thank you for your work, Raghav! Well done!

[@RaghavPal]

Thanks a lot!

Hi. Thank you for your video. Do you have the video to record a native mobile app?

[@RaghavPal]

Not yet

[@Lucajeck]

Hi, thank you very much for your videos, I have been an analyst tester for a short time and I have learned a lot thanks to you. I need a little advice. Is there any way or tool to compare the output of one set of APIs with the output of another set of APIs automatically? I would like to understand if the new APIs developed by the developers have the same output as the old ones with the same input. Thank you very much.

[@RaghavPal]

Hi, yes, there are tools and ways that you can use to compare API responses, if you search will get some options. Here are few links: SOAPUI - stackoverflow.com/questions/36762891/how-to-compare-values-from-response-of-two-different-requests-in-soap-ui-using-g POSTMAN - community.postman.com/t/compare-two-json-responses-but-ordering-of-items-in-them-doesnt-matter/13522 REST ASSURED - www.quora.com/What-is-the-best-way-to-do-API-response-comparison-I-have-been-comparing-the-JSON-response-against-a-stored-JSON-response-using-REST-Assured-framework-Is-there-a-better-way JMETER - www.blazemeter.com/blog/the-easiest-way-to-compare-rest-api-responses-using-jmeter

@@RaghavPal One last question, when running jmeter from the command line, it will still use the ramp up time set in the "thread group" UI right?

[@RaghavPal]

Yes, unless you override it from command line it will work as you have set in the test plan

Can I use this on edge browser?

I believe its not supported on Edge Browser

[@4u2nv787]

Very knowledgeable video indeed. I just have a question, I am starting to work on performance testing of a web-application and I am stuck at the login page. My current milestone is to go through the login page by providing login credentials and then swarm the dashboard page with load. Can I do it using the same process that you showed in the video? Thanks.

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Taimur, yes can try

[@rekaram9067]

Hi, if we use blazemeter we can't albe to record the recording logs like we have that option in Jmeter. How to do the correlation without having the recording view result tree logs?

[@RaghavPal]

Here Blazemeter is just to record and get the jmx file, then you will be using JMeter to run and analyse

[@princemalik5917]

Hi Raghav, Can we record multiple scenarios in blazemeter and use same in jmeter under same test plan ?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Prince, as far as I know, when you export from blazemeter, you get a .jmx file that you can import in your JMeter and it comes as a Test Plan, One of the ways can be that you create your scenarios in Blazemeter and export and then from multiple jmx (test plans) copy the samplers and other elements as needed in one single JMeter test plan

[@Arunsharma-dw6dv]

can we recording xml file, like we get for recording template in jmeter. xml is very useful for correlations

[@RaghavPal]

Arun Yes, you can record XML files for correlations in JMeter, similar to the recording template feature. JMeter allows you to create customizable templates that can be tailored to save recordings in XML format, which is particularly useful for handling dynamic values in performance testing scenarios. To create a customizable template in JMeter for recording XML files, you would typically modify the `templates.xml` file within the JMeter directory to declare your template with the desired parameters. This involves specifying the template name, file path, and any parameters you want the user to input, such as the name of the XML file where the recording will be saved. The template file itself would be a `.jmx.fmkr` file that JMeter processes to replace custom tags with user-provided values during recording¹. Additionally, JMeter's Correlation Recorder plugin can simplify the process by automatically recording dynamic variables and correlating them during the recording time, which can be a time-saver compared to manual correlation².

[@Arunsharma-dw6dv]

how we can do it in blazemeter, due to security reasons, i am not able to apply proxy in any of the browers, hence not able to use recording template, in blazemter, is there any way we can create xml file also along with recording the flow @@RaghavPal

[@RaghavPal]

Blazemeter offers a couple ways to achieve recording without a traditional browser proxy: 1. BlazeMeter Chrome Extension: This extension allows you to record HTTP requests and associated data directly within your Chrome browser. It eliminates the need for a separate proxy server and simplifies the process. Here's how to use it: * Install the BlazeMeter Chrome Extension from the Chrome Web Store. * Log in to your BlazeMeter account and navigate to the "Performance" tab. * Click on "Record" and choose "Chrome Extension." * Follow the on-screen instructions to initiate recording within your Chrome browser. * Once finished recording your user flow, you can export the script as a JMeter script (JMX file) for further editing within BlazeMeter. 2. Browser Developer Tools (HAR Export): Most modern browsers like Chrome and Firefox have built-in developer tools that can capture network traffic. While not as convenient as a recording extension, it allows you to capture the HTTP requests during your user flow. * Open the developer tools in your browser (usually by pressing F12). * Navigate to the "Network" tab. * Perform your desired user flow on the website. * Once finished, right-click within the captured requests list and choose "Save as HAR." This creates a HAR file containing the recorded network traffic. * BlazeMeter offers a HAR to JMeter converter tool: [www.blazemeter.com/blog/jmeter-tutorial](www.blazemeter.com/blog/jmeter-tutorial). Upload your HAR file and convert it to a JMeter script (JMX) for further editing within BlazeMeter. Note: While these methods bypass the need for a traditional proxy, some websites may employ additional security measures that could limit capturing all requests.

[@JaseenaNJ]

Thankyou for the video. While running the test token expired error is showing. How we resolve that case?

[@RaghavPal]

Jaseena To resolve the "token expired" error, you need to refresh or regenerate the token during the test run. You can automate this by using a Pre-Processor (like HTTP Request to get a new token) before making requests that require it

the samplers will run based on the threads, iterations and time, so a single sampler can run multiple times

How to record the script in the incognito window with blaze meter

[@RaghavPal]

Raghava To record a script using the BlazeMeter Chrome Extension in incognito mode, follow these steps: 1. Install the BlazeMeter Chrome Extension: - Download and install the BlazeMeter plugin from the Chrome Web Store. - Add the extension to your Chrome browser. 2. Record Your Actions: - Open an incognito window in your browser. - Start accessing your web app or browse the URLs you want to test. - The BlazeMeter extension will capture all HTTP/S requests sent by your browser during your interaction with the web application. 3. Pause and Stop Recording: - Once you've recorded the requests, press "Pause" when you're done. - Click the "Stop" button on the left panel to finalize the recording. 4. Convert to Script: - The extension will create a JMeter or Selenium script from the recorded requests. - You can upload the script to BlazeMeter for execution. Remember, the BlazeMeter Chrome Extension simplifies recording and running performance tests without needing to install JMeter or Selenium locally --
