Why are there no results being produced by Jmeter's Https Test Script Recorder?

edit

There could be several reasons why JMeter's HTTPS Test Script Recorder is not producing any results. Some common reasons include:

1. HTTPS Traffic is not being sent through the proxy: The HTTPS Test Script Recorder works by intercepting the traffic between the browser and the website. If the traffic is not being sent through the proxy, then JMeter will not be able to record it. Make sure that the proxy settings are properly configured in the browser and that the website is being accessed using the correct URL.

2. Security Certificates: HTTPS websites use SSL certificates to encrypt the traffic between the browser and the server. If the SSL certificate is not trusted by the browser or JMeter, then the traffic will not be intercepted. To fix this, you can add the SSL certificate to the JMeter truststore or configure the browser to trust the certificate.

3. Firewall or Network Issues: It is possible that the traffic is being blocked by a firewall or network security device. Check with your network administrator to ensure that the necessary ports are open and that there are no restrictions that may prevent the traffic from being intercepted by the proxy.

4. HTTP Header Manager: The JMeter's HTTPS Test Script Recorder requires an HTTP Header Manager to be added to the Test Plan. Ensure that the header manager is correctly set up.

5. Incorrect JMeter Settings: Make sure that you have correctly configured the JMeter proxy settings and the recording settings. Check that the recording controller is set up correctly and that the correct port is specified.

6. Compatibility with target site technology: It is also possible that the target site uses a different technology that is not compatible with the HTTPS Test Script Recorder. For instance, if the site uses WebSocket or other advanced Web technologies the Test Script Recorder may not be able to capture the traffic.
