Hi--

I'm not sure jmeter is a viable option for my webapp, but am new to the
tool:

I have a web app where, if you navigate to the home page, redirects to
a secure SSO (https) login.

I successfully recorded a test plan using the http proxy. However,
since jmeter is blind to the https request, the login portion of the
recorded script doesn't work when executing.

I need a way to login for jmeter when executing the test. Is there a
way to do this, even manually?

TIA for any info.

JMeter will not be blind to the https request if you put the class for
your SSL implementation in your classpath.

http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/get-started.htmlhttp://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/get-started.html

and search for the string, "By default."

It isn't something you can effectively record. You need to have properly configured HTTP Authorization Manager so JMeter could construct a proper header and bypass authentication. See <a href="http://blazemeter.com/blog/windows-authentication-apache-jmeter">Windows Authentication with Apache JMeter</a> for more details.
