When I record anything, I can see about 40+ events being watched, but when I stop the recording, the recording is empty.
I am totally new to performance testing (many years of experience as a non-performance tester), so the k6 version is what I just downloaded today. The browser is chromium with only the k6 extension.
Nevermind, it works just fine on another URL. (The first URL was one I chose because it is available for anyone to use for testing things; it is not a URL that I have to use.)
The k6 recorder watches everything happening in your browser, but it only remembers the actions that actually do something, like clicking buttons, submitting forms, or moving between pages. Just opening a page won’t create a script. To get a proper recording, start the recorder in a new tab, do the actions you want to test, and then stop it. Your script will capture exactly what you did.
