<div>
JMeter has the ability to record the web traffic HTTP\HTTPS and then you can play it back. Sometimes you are able to playback without configuration and other times you may need to alter the test plan.<br />
Below is a link to a decent document on the steps, even though it states 2.0, it still applies to JMeter 3.0.<br />
<a href="https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/jmeter_proxy_step_by_step.pdf" rel="ugc">https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/jmeter_proxy_step_by_step.pdf</a><br />
<br />
There are other tutorials on recording in JMeter and even with Blazemeter.<br />

Good Luck!

A Web service is a method of communication between two electronic devices over a network. It is a software function provided at a network address over the Web with the service always on as in the concept of utility computing. A web service has an interface described in Web Services Description Language (WSDL). Other systems interact with the Web service in a manner prescribed by its description using SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) messages. There are two major classes of Web services: REST-compliant web services, and Arbitrary web services.

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
