record request times

Dear list,

I have searched the archives for information on how to record timing 
(think times) information for requests recorded via Jmeter proxy.

The only result I got wrt my problem, was that adding a timer as a child 
of the proxy would make each recorded sample have a similar timer (with 
the same values of delay and deviation) as a child too.

That made me conclude that you can only have a fixed (albeit randomly 
deviated) delay between your requests. If you need to simulate a use 
case with the actual timings it originally had between each pair of 
consecutive requests (or grouped requests), you must record them by hand 
and then configure all the timers also by hand.

I would love to be wrong. Am I? Is there some obscure Javascript code 
that may help me automating this task?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Vasco

This is possible with jmeter proxy recorder, add a timer in you http proxy recorder as a chield and give thread delay in ms as ${T} and then record
this will capture real think time.

Thanks
