  Selecting the Protocol in Script Editor:  Method 1: Using web_custom_request function and a .json file. Create a Web - HTTP/HTML script and insert web_custom_request function. Enter the Step Name, Method(POST), URL of your REST API, Record Mode(HTTP), Encoding Type(application/json). Create a ‘sample.json’ file under Extra Files. Place the JSON message in the sample.json file you created in previous step. In web_custom_request part, remove the line “Body” and add a new line BodyFileLocation. And the line should look like this after the change "BodyFileLocation=sample.json". Some Sites requires user authentication to access the content.

         JMeter With AppDynamics          JMeter integration with AppDymanics provides a complete solution for the Performance Testing and Monitoring of the server resources. The benefits of JMeter and AppDynamics integration include the mapping between JMeter requests and AppDynamics Business Transactions. However, JMeter simulates end-user activity by launching a thread group and executing an HTTP request. AppDynamics fetches the name of the JMeter HTTP request stores the metrics in an AppDynamics business transaction and provides the result. Steps for JMeter Integration with AppDynamics: JMeter Set-up: Step 1:  Launch JMeter, record the user flow and complete the test script by applying appropriate correlation, parametrization etc. In the case of web services, add the services to the JMeter test plan and complete the script. Step 2:  Right-click on the Test Plan element then click to Add -> Config Element ->HTTP Header Manager. This HTTP Header Manager will act as a global el
