When to use the option "Retrieve All Embedded Resources from HTML
Files"
Hi All,
I am using Proxy Server to record the use case for Load Testing in JMeter.
In "HTTP Request Defaults" there is option to select "Retrieve All Embedded
Resources from HTML Files". I am doing web based testing. I am not clear in
which scenario do we need to select this option and in which it does not.
Also, what is the difference between selecting and not selecting this option
and how it impacts in Load Testing?
Your response on this issue will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jagan

The option just means that the samplers will be created with the
corresponding option selected.

The option specifies whether or not to download embedded resources
such as style-sheets and images that would normall be downloaded by a
browser (depending on the browser options of course).

Try it and see?
The current version of JMeter has a Cache Manager
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#HTTP_Cache_Manager
which attempts to simulate what browsers do (if they are set up to cache files).
However it does not track how much disk space would be used by the
files, and so corresponds to using a browser with no cache limit.
If you use embedded + Cache Manager that should be reasonably close to
what a browser does.
