Since JMeter 2.10, recording has been improved to better handle embedded resources and creation of certificates on the fly.

<li>JMeter functions like <tt class="code">__counter</tt>, <tt class="code">__time</tt>...</li>

To correlate, we can get data from a request with <tt class="code">Post Processors</tt> like <tt class="code">JSON Extractor</tt>, <tt class="code">Regular Expression Extractor</tt>... and inject it in another request.
</p><p>
To find data to correlate, the easiest way to do it is to use the Search function in <tt class="code">View Results Tree</tt>.

<p>
At this point, we are ready to run our test plan and see what happens. When you're
ready to run the test, there are two ways:
<ol>
<li>With the gui, but it's not recommended to big load test.</li>
<li>With the command line.</li>
</ol>
</p><p>
Solution 1, with the gui, but just during debug phase, use Non GUI for your load test.
</p><p>
<span class="menuchoice">
<span class="guimenuitem">Run</span> → <span class="guimenuitem">Start</span> </span>
or use the keyboard and press <span class="keycombo"><span class="keysym">Ctrl</span> + <span class="keysym">R</span></span>
</p><p>
Before you start the test, add a <tt class="code">Summary Report</tt> element and select it. As the test runs, the statistics will change
until the test is done. At the end of the test, the summary report should look like this.
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td><img width='984' height='220' src="../../docs/images/screenshots/example-summary-report.png"/><br>
<font size="-1"></font></td></tr></table>
</p><p>
While the test is running, in the upper right-hand corner, there should be a green circle. When the test is done, the circle should be grey.
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td><img width='132' height='39' src="../../docs/images/screenshots/example-running.png"/><br>
<font size="-1"></font></td></tr></table>
</p><p>
Solution 2, in command line, use <tt class="code">jmeter -n -t [jmx file] -l [results file] -e -o [Path to output folder]</tt>
</p><p>
At the end of the test, an HTML report will be generated and available in [Path to output folder] used in command line.
