Recording test scenarios is one of the most convenient ways to create test scripts. This is because test recordings let you mimic realistic user workflows, instead of having to manually create a test script. The recordings capture all browser requests to the web application, and then automatically create a jmx file that can be run in performance tests. By using JMeter’s recording/playback functionality or 3rd party tools like BlazeMeter and BadBoy, testers can make their work 3 times faster.
