Recording requests
Hi All,
I wish to use JMeter as a tool to demonstrate performance testing to students at a university. Unfortunately the HTTP Proxy Server configuration to record a use case isn't possible because the browser proxy settings are locked down by the system administrators. Is there some other way I can easily capture my HTTP requests?
Regards,
David Schulberg

I suppose there's no point suggesting that you try installing a
different browser?
[The fact that the existing browser is locked down suggests not, on
the other hand, it seems you can install JMeter...]

I think you posted the question a week or two back. Unfortunately, if
the network you're on is blocking traffic, there's nothing you can do.
Well besides begging the system administrators to open up the firewall
a little for your talk.
Your other option is to use a wireless service like wifi or some other
form and bypass the school's firewall all together. Do this at your
own risk though, since sys admins don't like it when people do that.
In fact they usually get all bent out of shape.
you're other option is to setup a webserver locally on the same
network and try recording your test plan that way. You must be able to
access some internal website right? Is it feasible to use that for
demonstration purposes. I hope that helps.

Your browser proxy settings are locked down? If you can get access to
the web server's access logs, you can use it to play back the GET
requests (to do POSTS, you'd have to write some server side code to
record the POST requests yourself).
You might have to upgrade to a latest nightly of JMeter too, to get the
access log sampler.
