jmeter download and save files

Question

hey is there any way to configure in jmeter to save the files coming from a response? In the dialog box, choose 'save file'?

Thanks

Answer 1

Have you tried using Save Responses to File? If your sampler accesses the URL of the file you're trying to download, it should save the content. I haven't tried it myself, but dialog in this thread seems to indicate that it should work.

Answer 2

To retrieve files from the server by clicking the "download" button in your app, in JMETER click the box "download embedded content" OR make your request point directly to the file you are trying to download. You may need to do a regex on the page to get the file location and then create a separate response just for the downloadable file.
