How to capture http GET and POST calls from windows application through Java

Question

I am working on automating windows installer based application and I have integrated AutoIt with java in order to capture the windows UI elements and processing.

Now I need to capture the POST(HTTP) calls and validate the request parameters. Manually I can able to monitor and validate the POST calls through Fiddler.

I have browsed for any Fiddler API in order to integrate it with my java application and found that Fiddler provided Fiddlercore API which can be used only in C#.

Can anyone suggest that any alternative for fiddlercore api which can be used to monitor the network calls from windows applcation(.exe) through java?

Answer 1

There are several ways to do this with Fiddler or FiddlerCore; you can automate both and export the traffic they capture to files (e.g. .SAZ or .HAR) that you can then read using your Java program.
