Hi Raghav, I am a performance testing engineer working in a software concern. I was looking for JMeter video tutorial which can teach me the concepts in easy way. Finally I found your tutorial. I completed all the 25 tutorials within 2 weeks time period. The classes are explained in detailed manner. Everyone can easily understand the class and follow the steps. I appreciate your service oriented mind set. Please keep up your good work. I wish you all the very best !

Hi Sir, Can you please guide us here? 1.We want to record a scenario using JMeter with Firefox browser for a website deployed on our local ( localhost:3000) Localhost request are not recorded by the jmeter (as proxy server biapasses this request) How can address this? Any help will be really appreciating.

[@contrtest0359]

Hey, Raghav! Have question about Login test. I have reproduced all the steps you have showed - everything works fine. But when I would like to perform negative test, so I edited my POST request and set incorrect Login& Password, but request is sill successful. Why is it so?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi, pls check in your JMeter where exactly are the credentials referred from. And it might be the case that it is not login but because you have not added any assertions so it is not showing failure. Failure is shown either the server does not respond, if there is some client side error (4xx) or server side error (5xx). So here your request is going through and server is also responding, but you need to add an assertion to check something on the home page.

[@abhishek090]

Hi Raghav, do we have a session that give the details around how we can use mutiple usernames and passwords for login in each iteration.

Hi Abhishek, not very specific to this. Will plan in some time

[@payalsethi1526]

When i am recording the video the transaction controller Test gets added automatically but not the same like in your video. Please suggest.

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Payal, what exactly is the diff you see. Not sure if this may be due to ver change

[@praveenvinnakota3272]

Hi Raghav, Thanks for the good videos. For the recorded script, it will generate some samplers and if I give wrong user id / password in one of the sampler will the test run? because only after login I can perform other actions in the page. Can you please explain?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Praveen, so ideally after recording if you manually update the credentials in the sampler then the next action should fail, You can also get the token and pass to other requests to maintain session. You will find online examples for this

[@traveltechgaming-ttg6905]

What type of testing does this video refers too? Is it for performance testing or load testing ?

[@RaghavPal]

[@RaghavPal]

You can create 2 thread groups, one with 200 users and in the other use Stepping Thread Group. This should be close to what you are trying.

[@rameshbhusal3079]

Hello Raghav, Can I run a run performance test of my application when 200 users are trying to login at a time?

[@RaghavPal]

Yes you can do that. Just ensure the infrastructure is able to handle that load.

[@priyaparthiban2413]

Hi Raghav , If am using Live URL in Jmeter , It will crash or affect the Production page?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Priya, I will suggest not to do any performance testing on Live url unless you ensure it will not break and you have proper permission for that. Some Best Practices 1. Always do performance testing on a separate env. Create a sep env which will not be used for other activities 2. Run your tests with the same infrastructure, network stats etc. To get consistent results and can be compared with the baseline 3. Always have a baseline to compare your test against. 4. JMeter checks the server performance and does not care for browser render time. So if you see your jmeter results are good but your application is still slow. Check for client-side performance testing tools 5. Focus on the areas that needs performance testing based on user scenario 6. Always document your results

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Sukanya, if you do not want to use any recorder, then you can create an http sampler provide the page path and in parameter provide your form elements and values. Similar to what you have seen for username / password field in this tutorial.

[@gnelgharagyozyan2470]

Can I add several Blazemeter recordings in one test plan?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Gnel No, you cannot directly add multiple BlazeMeter recordings in a single JMeter test plan. A BlazeMeter recording represents a specific user scenario or flow that you want to simulate and test. Each recording generates a separate JMX file (JMeter script) that captures the HTTP requests and actions performed during the recording. To combine multiple recordings into a single JMeter test plan, you can follow these steps: 1. Create separate JMeter test plans for each BlazeMeter recording. Each test plan will have its own JMX file. 2. Open a new JMeter test plan where you want to combine the recordings. 3. In the new test plan, add Thread Groups to represent different user scenarios or flows. 4. For each Thread Group, add a "Recording Controller" (Right-click on the Thread Group -> Add -> Logic Controller -> Recording Controller). 5. In each Recording Controller, specify the path to the respective JMX file (the JMX file generated from each BlazeMeter recording). 6. Configure the settings for each Thread Group, such as the number of threads, ramp-up period, and other desired configurations. 7. Run the test plan to simulate and execute the combined recordings. By using separate Recording Controllers and specifying the path to each JMX file, you can effectively combine multiple BlazeMeter recordings into a single JMeter test plan. Note: It's important to review and adjust the test plan accordingly to ensure proper coordination and synchronization between different user scenarios or flows, especially if there are dependencies or shared resources between them.

[@gnelgharagyozyan2470]

Hi, thank you. But can you, please, tell me what to do if there is also email verification code when logging?

[@RaghavPal]

If there is an email verification code when logging in using JMeter, you can use the following steps to extract the code and verify the login: 1. Set up a Mail Reader sampler in JMeter. 2. Configure the Mail Reader sampler to connect to your email account. 3. Set the folder to INBOX. 4. Use a Regular Expression Extractor to extract the email verification code from the email body. 5. Store the email verification code in a JMeter variable. 6. Use a HTTP Request sampler to submit the email verification code to the server. 7. Verify that the login is successful. Here is an example of how to configure the Mail Reader sampler: ``` Name: Mail Reader Protocol: POP3 Server Host: localhost Server Port: 110 Username: your_email_address Password: your_password Folder: INBOX ``` Here is an example of how to configure the Regular Expression Extractor: ``` Name: Regular Expression Extractor Regular Expression: (?

Hi, you mean browser coming up and you can see the runs. That does not happen in JMeter. It sends the request to server and gets back response and shows the results. Anyways when you do a load testing with say 1000 threads, you cannot expect to get 1000 browser open and running. Even your system with crash that way

How to test a sso authenticated application in Jmeter. I am getting unauthorized error while trying in http request

[@RaghavPal]

Aswathi When testing an SSO (Single Sign-On) authenticated application in JMeter, you'll need to handle the authentication process correctly. Here are some steps to address the "unauthorized" error: 1. Correlate Dynamic Parameters: - SSO often involves dynamic parameters (such as tokens) that need to be correlated. Make sure you capture and correlate these values between requests. - Specifically, look for parameters like `authenticity_token` and `xsrfProtection`. 2. HTTP Header Manager: - Add an HTTP Header Manager to your JMeter test plan. - Set the `Content-Type` header to `application/json` (or the appropriate content type for your application). 3. HTTP Cookie Manager: - Ensure you've added an HTTP Cookie Manager to your recorded script. - The Cookie Manager handles session IDs (like `JSESSIONID`) and maintains state across requests. 4. Compare with Browser Requests: - Compare the requests sent by JMeter with those from a browser. - Inspect any missing headers or parameters. 5. Check Authorization Manager: - If your SSO uses a specific authentication mechanism (e.g., Kerberos), configure the HTTP Authorization Manager accordingly. Remember to adjust these steps based on your specific SSO implementation --

Hello Sir, i have got .yaml file type after exporting from blazemeter plugin. Due to this, jmeter is not importing .yaml file. Kindly suggest any solution regarding this.

Hi Akshay, On blazemeter plugin, after recording, instead of save, click on edit, here you will get option to save as .jmx. Should be logged into blazemeter account

Hi, thank you so much for yours courses, I have a question, i did record of login of some different websites, then there is error 403 in some of them, and there is not with others my question are:1) what makes the different 2) how to avoid the error 403 when do performance testing thank you so much !

[@RaghavPal]

The error 403 Forbidden is a HTTP status code that indicates that the server understood the request but refuses to authorize it. This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as: * The user does not have the necessary permissions to access the resource. * The request is not authenticated. * The request is forbidden by the server's configuration. There are a few things that can make the difference between getting a 403 error on some websites and not on others. * The permissions of the user who is running JMeter. If the user does not have the necessary permissions to access the resource, they will get a 403 error. * The authentication method used by the website. If JMeter is not configured to use the correct authentication method, it will get a 403 error. * The server's configuration. Some servers are configured to return a 403 error for certain requests, even if the user has the necessary permissions. To avoid the error 403 when doing performance testing, you need to make sure that JMeter is configured correctly and that the user has the necessary permissions to access the resource. You should also check the server's configuration to make sure that it is not configured to return a 403 error for certain requests. Here are some specific things you can do to avoid the error 403: * Make sure that the user who is running JMeter has the necessary permissions to access the resource. * Configure JMeter to use the correct authentication method for the website. * Check the server's configuration to make sure that it is not configured to return a 403 error for certain requests. * Use a proxy server to test the website. A proxy server can help to hide the identity of the user and the IP address of the computer that is running JMeter. This can help to prevent the website from returning a 403 error. By following these tips, you can avoid the error 403 and ensure that your performance testing is successful.

Thank you for the video. there is a question. let's say I need to do a test - 1000 users are logged in. Can I use the test as a video and specify 1000 users as a jmeter? or do i need to create 1000 logins and passwords and use them? you need to test for the simultaneous login to the system 1000 users

[@RaghavPal]

Hi, you can use a single user and password and run it over 1000 threads. However some people suggest to use diff user ids to be get more realistic performance test results as for every unique user there is some background authentications to be done. You can use a csv file to put your values and use in JMeter. But ofcourse at first you can try with a single id and check the performance

Hi Raghav, Thanks for your detailed videos. Those are really helpful. I've one question related to the Blazemeter add on, Is this only to record login test or can I use it for any kind of recording? I do not want to add any proxy or change any port settings due to some security complaince.

[@RaghavPal]

Shruti The BlazeMeter Chrome Extension allows you to test your web application without prior scripting knowledge by recording user actions and HTTP requests. You can use it for various types of recording, not just login tests. Here's how it works: 1. Recording Capabilities: - The extension records all HTTP/S requests and actual user interactions that your browser sends while you interact with your web application. - It creates both JMeter and Selenium scripts based on the recorded actions. - You can use it to create performance tests, functional tests, and end-user experience monitoring. 2. Recording Process: - When you use the extension, it captures your interactions (clicks, form submissions, etc.) and the corresponding network requests. - It then generates a script that reproduces these actions, which you can execute for testing purposes. 3. No Proxy or Port Settings Required: - You do not need to add any proxy or change port settings for recording. - The extension works directly within your browser, without requiring additional configurations. 4. Use Cases: - You can record scenarios beyond login tests, such as: - Navigating through different pages of your application. - Submitting forms. - Interacting with dynamic elements. - Testing specific user flows. - It's a versatile tool for creating test artifacts without manual scripting. Remember that the BlazeMeter Chrome Extension simplifies the process of creating test scripts, making it accessible even to users without scripting knowledge. ...

Hey Raghav, Thanks for these wonderful video. These are very helpful for beginners like me. I am new to Performance Testing and was trying to run the same using Blazemeter. On the day of when i recorded videos all samplers got passed but when i run the same test cases next day the first sampler is getting passed but the second one is failing by saying Unauthorized with response code 401. My hunch is i have to pass some variables but i am not sure where. Any help would be appreciated . Thanks in advance

Hi Saikat, it may be that the 2nd request needs some token that is generated in the first request, I have shown in later videos how to pass values, Correlation etc.

Hi Raghav, One of the blazemeter recorded requests is giving 500 error, when I run on Jmeter. Seems fine when Ioad the same on browser. Request: GET Response : Response code:500 Response message: Internal Server Error

[@RaghavPal]

Rashmi The HTTP 500 error typically doesn't point to a problem with BlazeMeter itself, but rather to a scripting issue. Here are some steps to investigate: 1. Local JMeter Execution: - Ensure your script runs successfully in your local JMeter environment before using BlazeMeter. - If it works locally, proceed to the next step. 2. SSL Debug Logging: - Re-run the request with SSL debug logging enabled. - Add the following line to `system.properties`: ``` javax.net.debug=ssl ``` - Check the protocol (TLS/SSL) being used and adjust the `jmeter.properties` file accordingly: ``` https.default.protocol=TLS ``` 3. Browser Automation: - If your steps don't generate HTTP requests, consider using a browser automation framework like Selenium. Remember to cross-check your steps using the browser's "Network" tab in developer tools to ensure requests are being executed as expected
