Fiddler

When ever we are unable to record the script using Vugen then we'll use the fiddler tool to record the statements then convert those statements into Vugen statements.

Fiddler is a web debugging tool or stripping tool.
Fiddler versions:
2.2, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6. 4.4

Q: Why do we fail to launch the application in vugen sometimes?
Reasons:
 DEP settings
 Protocol selection
 Browser compatibility
 Wininet level/socket level
 Fiddler
When we failed to record some objects using vugen, we can use fiddler to record the communication.
Fiddler file extension is “.saz”

Q: In one of my application, we failed to record some of the get and post requests.
Solution: We used fiddler to develop the script.
Scenario 1: How to convert fiddler get request to vugen get request?
Solution:
Select the request in fiddler.
Right click and copy just url.
Write web_url in vugen and construct a request.

Scenario 2: How to convert post requests?
Solution:
Select the request in fiddler.
Right click and copy just url.
Go to inspectors panel.
Choose text view and copy the content.
Using above just url, content and construct the web_custom_request.
In current version of LR, we can directly open the fiddler file.
