Jmeter 5.3: Parent HTTP request fails due to child request favicon.svg failed which has same domain

Question

We recorded UI script using Blazemeter and all HTTP requests having advanced settings 'Retrieve Embedded resources' checked as expected. When re-play the same script by importing in Jmeter, the parent HTTP request is downloading all embedded resources along with favicon.svg, however this .svg request always fails (both requests having same domain).

Is there any way to make parent node PASS though child request failed in Jmeter. URLs must match option of Advanced tab of HTTP request's can be used if different domain.

Please suggest.

Jmeter v: 5.3

Answer 1

The options are in:

1. Remove this favicon.svg from the "embedded resources" scope:

   

   this option is available since JMeter 5.4 so you will have to upgrade

2. There is a setting to ignore eventual failures of embedded resources retrieval, you can add the next line to user.properties file:

   httpsampler.ignore_failed_embedded_resources=true
   

   JMeter restart will be required to pick the property up
