HTTPS Settings
HTTPS Settings
When you record pages secured by SSL, you can select the necessary certificate for Recorder on the HTTPS
tab of program settings.
SSL version: Select a version of SSL that WAPT Pro should
use during test runs.
Recorder root certificate
"Recorder root certificate" is used to intercept HTTPS protected traffic during recording. Recorder proxy uses a
"man-in-the-middle" method to intercept HTTPS, so proxy claims to be the secure web server. To achieve this,
proxy generates a SSL certificate for each web server and signs it by "Recorder root certificate".
This certificate is generated automatically during WAPT Pro
installation and by default is not trusted by your system.
That is why you can see HTTPS error messages in Recorder browser while the Recorder proxy is intercepting your traffic.
To avoid those messages, you can install the default "Recorder root certificate" or specify your own trusted root
certificate.
Certificate file:
Here you can see the default path for generated certificate. However, you can use your own
certificate: click the "Browse..." button and select a desired file.
Private key is contained in a separate file: Private key which is necessary to access the certificate file
can be stored either in a separate file, or in the same file with the certificate.
You can check this option and specify a file with the private key.
Password: Default certificate does not require a password. However, if you use your own
certificate, you can enter a password to get access to the private key.
View/Install Certificate..: Click this button to view the Recorder root certificate and/or install it.
Note that this certificate is used during the recording process only and is not used during test runs.
Client certificate
During test runs
you may need to present a client certificate to the tested server if the server wants to check your
identity.
Use client certificate: Check this option if the tested server requires
SSL client-side certificates.
Certificate file: Here you can specify a certificate file necessary to access the tested server.
Private key is contained in a separate file: Private key which is necessary to access the certificate file
can be stored
either in a separate file, or in the same file with the certificate.
Check this option if the private key is stored in a separate file and
specify this file.
Password: Enter the password to get access to the private key.
