Load Runner is a performance
testing tool.
It also does functional testing.
Load Runner has 4 components:
Ø Virtual User Generator (VUGEN)
Ø Controller
Ø Analysis
Ø Load Generator.
1) VUGEN:
VUGEN is where we
a) Record, b) Run, c) Debug & d) Design.
They are called Vuser scripts.
2) Controller:
Controller is where we apply the load. The Controller organizes drives,
manages and monitors the load test.
3) Analysis:
Analysis is where we analyze the performance results.
4) Load generator/Launcher:
It is the local host [which is CPU]. Load generator generates the load by
running virtual users.
Load Runner has 2 views:
1) Script view
2) Tree view: It has 2 vies as well:- a) Page view & b) HTML view
To start:
Ø Go to Programs
Ø Load Runner
Ø Virtual User Generator
Ø Click on “New file”
Ø Expand E Business
Ø Select “Web(HTTP/HTML)”
Ø Click “OK”
Ø Highlight “Action”
Ø Click “Record”
Ø Type URL[www.Macy’s.com]
Ø Click “OK”
Then run from the top. Result summary appears. Status =”Passed”.
On the left window expand the “Iteration” to watch the screens. Then close
the result window.
Delete cookies and design.
To design we have write “Comments” and “Start” and “End” transactions.
To write comments:
Ø Go to “Insert”
Ø Click on “Comment” and write the comment
E.g. “Type www.Macy’s.com.”
and the main page of Macy’s will open.”
Then click on the icon “Start transaction” and write “Macy’s” and enter. At
the end of that script click on the icon “End transaction” and it will
automatically have “Macy’s”, just enter. Similarly we have to do it to every
link. After we are done we have to run again and save the test case with a
name.
Toggle Break point
Using the Toggle Break point we can stop the script where ever we want. But
it has some limitations. We can use TBP only before “web_url” & “web_ txt”.
Using the Toggle Break point we can do line by line debugging. After
debugging we design the script.
There are 3 kinds of errors:
1) Syntax error: [ , ; : “ ) ] etc.
2) Runtime error: Spelling error.
3) Compiling error:
Syntax error and Runtime error are tester’s responsibility.
Compiling error is programmer’s responsibility.
Toggle Break point is only for Runtime error. The TBP looks like a hand
symbol. If we put TBP anywhere besides web_url or web_txt the system won’t
recognize it and it will run through without stopping. After designing we
can put Toggle Break Point before “LR_start_transaction”. If we put TBP
before “LR_end_transaction” it will work but it is better to stop it at
start. Sometimes we are not sure about some scripts whether to delete it or
not. In that case first put it under comment and run. If it works then
delete it. By using TBP we can do line by line debugging. Toggle Break Point
is only for runtime error.
We can check the Pass/Fail log in the “Replay log”.
