Context menu
In the Page Load Details window, you can use the context menu to complete the following commands.
- Menu Item
- Description
- Host/Port Remap...
- Starts the host and port remapping dialog. See RTV Menus.
- Copy URL to clipboard
- Copy the selected URL or URLs to the clipboard.
- Copy all to clipboard
- Copy all URLs to the clipboard.
- Open URL
- Open the selected URL in a browser.
- Block this URL from contacting remote host
- Block this specific URL or URL pattern from contacting a remote
host during replay. In the dialog, enter the URL to block.
- You can use ? or * wildcards in specifying the URL.
- To replace the entire query string with a * wildcard, click Replay query string with wildcard.
- If possible, the request is satisfied by the session data even if blocked. If the data is in the browser cache internal to RTV, the request continues to be satisfied from there.
- Blocked URLs are represented by an icon in thePage Load Details page, and the Source column indicates Block Rule.
- Blocked URLs are saved as replay rules in the Profile.
- Remap URL...
- Remap the URL for the selected external resource to a new URL. See Remapping URLs.
- Post Data
- (if request is a POST) contains a submenu that lists POSTed data
items. The submenu contents vary based on the content type of the
POSTed data:
- For application/x-www-form-urlencoded data, submenus list individual form parameters.
- For text/xml data, a single submenu that is labeled XML, followed by the number of bytes, is displayed. Selecting the XML submenu item displays the XML data in its raw format and in an easier-to-view format.
- For AMF data, the menu label is AMF, followed by the AMF IDs of the messages that are contained in the POST. Selecting this submenu item displays a decoded version of the AMF POST.
- Pages
- (if request is a POST) contains a submenu listing pages in the
session whose URLs match this request.
- Each submenu item indicates whether the page's POSTed data matches the data that was POSTed during replay. For those items that do not match, additional submenu items list the data items that do not match.
- For application/x-www-form-urlencoded data, the submenu items list matching page URLs and differences between POSTed data and captured parameters. Selecting a listed parameter initiates configuration of an IgnoreReqVarForURLMatch rule.
- For AMF data, the submenu items list individual message IDs and the 20 IDs surrounding each message. They show differences between decoded flattened versions of the AMF data, which allows you to compare values in them.
- For XML data, the submenu items list matching page URLs. They show differences between flattened versions of the XML data, which allows you to compare values in them. You can use these comparisons to debug Ajax replay issues. For example, some parameter value on Ajax calls generated during replay never match the values that are generated during the original session. You can use listed parameters to create rules that allow RTV to ignore them when it tries to determine which captured Ajax page best matches requests that are made during replay.
