The LoadRunner loop statement To implement the logic of boilerplate code, a loop statement was added to the LoadRunner script. There are two ways in the LoadRunner script to send a specific request X times. To allow LoadRunner to send the request to the server, one method is to write the request X times. Another …
General description: Apache JMeter is a Java-based open-source performance testing tool that is free to use with no license fees. This allows users to perform performance tests for software applications or systems without incurring costs for the tool itself. JMeter is rapidly gaining popularity due to its emerging features, which rival those of licensed tools. …
‘if’ statement for LoadRunner In LoadRunner, “if” is a conditional statement with syntax identical to a conditional statement in C. The conditional statement regulates the flow of the script while the set condition is being evaluated. The ‘if’ statement in LoadRunner helps with flow management by checking the correctness of the response and indicating whether …
Business flow logic In some cases, you must create your own original code to handle user activity while you create the script. A hotel booking website can list all the hotels and indicate if they are booked or available. Based on the business case, a user should only select hotels with an occupancy status of …
web_reg_save_param_json The value of a JSON node in the server response is recorded using the web_reg_save_param_json function. This function is typically used when the server answer has a JSON format. By including the element name’s (node’s) path in the function’s query string, the necessary dynamic value can be easily obtained. The subsequent requests make use …
web_reg_save_param_xpath To record the value of an XML node in the server response, use web_reg_save_param_xpath. Most web services return XML as their response format, making it simple to capture these responses by including the name of the XML element (or “node”) in the query string of the function. Some HTML web requests have embedded XML …
One of the simplest ways to create the correlation logic for managing dynamic values in the script is through the use of regular expressions in LoadRunner. The web_reg_save_param_regex method makes use of regular expression tokens to capture dynamic values in the response. Over web_reg_save_param, the key benefit of web_reg_save_param_regexp is the ability to escape the …
web_reg_save_param_ex The ‘web_reg_save_param’ function for the C language version of Micro Focus LoadRunner has been deprecated and replaced by the ‘web_reg_save_param_ex’ method. This is the ‘web_reg_save_param’ function in an expanded format with new significant attributes. By comparing the differences between the two, you can understand why some more features have been eliminated. ‘web_reg_save_param’ and ‘web_reg_save_param_ex’ …
web_reg_save_param The LoadRunner function “web_reg_save_param” is used to manage the dynamic values returned by the server in the response. The ‘Correlation – Overview’ article has already discussed the fundamental idea of dynamic value. As you continued, you learned about the several types of correlation, including autocorrelation and manual correlation. When you select the ‘Correlate’ button …
Manual LoadRunner mapping As we continue our discussion of mapping, we now come to manual mapping. In my previous blogs, I have covered the basics of correlation and autocorrelation. Manual mapping is a technique for locating dynamic values that require manual work. When using automatic mapping, dynamic values can occasionally be 100% bound (this is …
