Recording your first journey
Press record, click through your flow, stop, and review the captured steps and correlations.
# Recording your first journey
## Record
1. Open your site in Chrome with the extension installed.
2. Click the extension and press **Record**.
3. Click through the flow you want to test (e.g. login → search → checkout) like
a normal user.
4. Press **Stop**.
## Review
The recorder shows the **transactions** (steps) it captured, the requests per
step, and any **correlations** it detected — dynamic values like CSRF tokens or
session ids that must be replayed per virtual user.
## Next
- Generate a JMeter script to run under load yourself, or
- **Open in Studio** for the visual test plan builder, live monitoring and
performance certificates.
> Tip: record the *real* path a user takes. The report is only as honest as the
> journey you walk.
