In contrast to the Web-protocol approach to
load
testing, browser-driven Web load testing uses the browser itself for script validation.
The benefits of having Try Script runs performed in the browser are as follows:
- Live application state is presented in the browser.
- Locator Spy functionality for advanced script modification and adaption (supported for
Internet Explorer only).
- Scripts can be executed in step-by-step mode (supported for
Internet Explorer only).
- Screenshots are captured before each browser API call and stored in the TrueLog for future analysis.
Once a Try Script run is shown to be successful in the Browser Application, you can analyze the results of the Try Script
run with
TrueLog Explorer. Test script analysis with
TrueLog Explorer involves the following tasks:
- Viewing Virtual User Summary Reports
- Finding errors
- Comparing replay test runs with recorded test runs
