saz2jmx

A utility to convert fiddler capture archive (saz) to jmeter script (jmx). It exports the jmx with good defaults and boilerplate.

Motivation

As a Performance tester (or "http hacker") we quite regularly play with tools like Fiddler which helps us to log/inspect/edit/save all http(s) traffic between the client and the server. Another favorite tool is Apache JMeter which is responsible to generating heavy http/or any kind of traffic and measuring transaction attributes. This tool/js library attempts to bridge the gap between the two by providing users to generate a jmeter script from a fiddler capture archive.

$3

* HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder: JMeter's very own http traffic recorder. The interface is hard to use and does not allow you to save the recorded data (easily 😉)
* Blazemeter Chrome Extension: doesnt save the responses which are very crucial for correlation also some bugs on GET query string conversion.

Usage

Make sure you have Nodejs and npm installed. Latest LTS Version: 10.16.0 (includes npm 6.9.0).

There are multiple options to use this library.

$3

1. install the package npm i saz2jmx
2. sample javascript, say script.js
``javascript
let saz2jmx = require('saz2jmx');
saz2jmx('c:/path/to/imported.saz', 'exports/exported.jmx');
`
3. Execute node script.js

$3

execute it directly without installing the package

`shell
npx saz2jmx -s source.saz -d destination.jmx
`

$3

install the package by running npm i -g saz2jmx. Then run the command as shown below.

`shell
Usage: saz2jmx [options]

example: saz2jmx -s source.saz -d destination.jmx

Options:
-v, --version output the version number
-s, --source source .saz file

`
That's it, really!

TODO

- ability make samplers configurable (pass in a json maybe?)
- ability add additional jmeter components
- create jmx from bzt configs (yml) (I know its reinventing the wheel! but reinventing in JS, bzt` is in python)
