The application I want to load test is a Shopping Cart application(Server performance). I have tried with Jmeter for a purchase scenario, But the problem is Jmeter not recording actions like logins, selection from dropdown etc. Because of that on playback the recorded scripts won't create any user sessions and no purchase is happening. But Jmeter shows all the scripts were run successfully. I want to record each and every action on mobile. Is any solution for this problem? Do i need to use any other tool other than Jmeter? Please help. Thanks in advance.

If your application makes a HTTP (or HTTPS) requests - JMeter can record it (assuming correct configuration)
Given you are able to record some requests it seems like you're almost there, few points to consider:
In order to make JMeter capable of decrypting and recording HTTPS traffic you need to install JMeter's self-signed certificate onto mobile device.
- Start JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Scipt Recorder
- Locate
ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crtfile under JMeter's bin folder - Transfer it somehow to mobile device (i.e. send it as an attachment to yourself and open the email on the mobile device)
- Click on the certificate in the email attachment and follow your mobile OS dialog to get it installed
Make sure the certificate is up-to-date (it has limited lifetime, only 7 days by default) so you will need to re-generate it and reimport each week or amend
proxy.cert.validityJMeter property to override the certificate validity period and make it longer

JMeter has a proxy server which can record all the HTTP/HTTPS records.
