User Credentials for GUI-Level Testing

User credentials for GUI-level testing can be specified in the following areas:

Note: Ensure that the user accounts used for GUI-level testing are members of the Remote Desktop Users Windows group on the remote agent.

If you want each VUser to connect using different login credentials, specify the credentials using project attributes or use script customization through data files.

If you want each VUser to connect with identical login credentials, specify the credentials using profile settings or with plain text in the BDL script.

Note: User credentials specified in profile settings are used only when the other options listed above are not used. When no user credentials are specified in any of the areas listed above, Silk Performer connects to the console session without using the remote desktop protocol. In such instances you can only run one VUser per agent.
