JMeter: Get Post Request URL and Data - java

I"M practicing JMeter performance testing using this website. There is username, password field and login button.
How to know the username URL, password URL and login action URL which need to supply to POST method in JMeter?

You can obtain the request curl using any proxy tool or simply using "inspect" feature on your browser.
From the curl, you can easily generate the jmeter script you want.

Use your browser's "inspect element" feature.
Request URL - https://www.phptravels.net/demo/account/login
Request Method - POST
Form Data
username - username
password - password

The easiest way of building a web test plan is just recording it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
From JMeter's main menu choose File -> Templates -> Recording and click "Create"
Open HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and click "Start"
Locate ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt file in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation and add it to your browser.
Amend your browser proxy configuration to look like
Execute your test steps in browser
JMeter should capture the requests and generate the relevant HTTP Request samplers under the Recording Controller
The alternative way of recording a JMeter test is using JMeter Chrome Extension, in this case you will not have to worry about proxies and certificates.

Is there any way to handle authentication alert using selenium without any OS tool like autoIT and robot

I am facing authentication pop up for a webpage:
for now take it as example,
https://test.com
what I have tried
https://username:password#test.com
but it is not logging in. the pop again comes and asks for login credentials.
Issue
I have to run the script headless so I don't want to use AutoIT, Robot, is there other way to handle this?
This is called Basic Authorization and solved by injecting header with authentication data. What you have tried used to work before but then it was considered insecure so such form of authentication is no more supported.
Selenium does not have native mechanism to address that but you can use BrowserMob-Proxy in order to add header data from your Selenium test.

How can I get the HTTP request data?

I'm testing with JMeter and I need the HTTP request data to make that.
I tried to see that information in F12 Network of Chrome browser, but it doesn't appear the information there.
Someone knows how can I get that information?
You can't get the request because the browser refreshes the network tab when you go to another page. But you can persist these requests marking the option Preserve Logs, like so:
Image before request, with the checkbox checked:
After request, persistent logs:
You can see more information about the network tab here
The easiest way is to capture HAR file in the Chrome Developer Tools, it will have all the information for the request data including parameters, headers, cookies, etc.
Once done you will be able to inspect it with i.e. HAR Analyzer or simply convert it into a JMeter .jmx script
The best way to capture HTTP Requests is by using JMeter's Proxy.
If you try to inspect network in browser and construct JMeter script manually it takes lot of efforts, Alternatively you can just set your JMeter as a proxy server and capture your browsers network traffic.
Follow this post for more information on how to setup proxy in JMeter and record web applications.

Capture post request payload from web browser network traffic using automation

I am not able to capture POST request payload which is sent by chrome browser for forms.
I have tried Browser mob proxy but it only captures in har file the request url, response code but not request payload.
I want to validate the request payload via java or selenium or any automation script and not via manual verification.
Any suggestion will be helpful.
As browser mob only captures request url and response status but not payload data. I stopped using browsermob.
I used Fiddler instead which worked perfectly for me. The only problem was unlike browser mob I had to install Fiddler application in my system for which I had to approached to my superiors for permissions for fiddler installation.

how to get Request URL upon page load in the browser

Is there a way to get the Request URL in chrome browser upon page load when I navigate to a certain URL. I am trying to do it using selenium and java but it seems not really working to what I want to happen so I did not include the codes here. I only put the developer tool (F12) in chrome where I need to get the Request URL.

How to get the response stream of browser in Java WebDriver program

I need to validate the PDF report. I need to get the report embeded in HTML. If I read that URL using:
File file = new File("url");
or
HttpWebConnection.getResponse();
it requests the URL in separate session, hence it cannot get the file.
Does ieDriver have something like HtmlUnit?
HttpWebConnection.getResponse()
or somebody can suggest alternative.
Unfortunately it does not.
If you want to get the response code you will need a proxy. If you are using Java then Browser Mob is what you need. You may also try making XmlHttpRequest from javascript and get the status code in that way.
You could also stick to the method you are using right now (separate request from Java) but pass the cookie with session (you can obtain the cookie from WebDriver)
