Disabling Specific Technology Domains

You can disable the loading of specific technology domains in a test, if the technology domains are not required for the test and are known to cause problems, for example by reducing the performance of the test.

Note: Disable technology domains only if you are certain that the technology domains are not required for the test.
  1. To open the Tech Domains dialog box for a visual test:
    1. Select the Start step of the visual test.
    2. Open the Properties tab.
    3. Click into the Tech Domains field.
    4. Click Open.
  2. To open the Tech Domains dialog box for a VB .NET script:
    1. Open the Properties tab.
    2. In the properties tree, right-click on the application configuration for which you want to disable the technology domains.
    3. Click Select Tech Domains.
  3. In the Tech Domains dialog box, uncheck the Automatically load Tech Domains as necessary check box.
  4. In the Tech Domain list, uncheck the technology domains that you no longer want to load for the test.
  5. Click OK.
In future executions of the test, only the enabled technology domains will be loaded.
