Recording Controller

The Recording Controller is a place holder indicating where the proxy server should record samples to. During test run, it has no effect, similar to the Simple Controller. But during recording using the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder, all recorded samples will by default be saved under the Recording Controller.
