Adding test elements
You can add a variety of elements
to a test, such as transaction blocks, IF-THEN conditions, loops, and comments.
- Adding a comment
You can add a comment to document a test. - Adding a transaction to a test
A transaction is a specific group of test elements whose performance you are interested in. When viewing the test results, you can view performance data about any transactions that you have added. - Adding conditional logic
You can add IF-THEN conditional logic around portions of a test to make those portions run if a specific condition is met. - Synchronizing users in tests
By inserting a synchronization point, you can coordinate the activities of a number of virtual users by pausing and resuming activities. You can synchronize all virtual users at the beginning of a test and stagger the release times so that the users do not overload the system. Synchronization points are also useful in stress testing. - Adding a loop to a test
You can define part of a test as a loop that runs a specified number of times. If the loop contains a synchronization point, the synchronization point is released after the first iteration of the loop and stays released for all further iterations. - Adding Datapool Mapper
You can include a Datapool Mapper in a compound test or a schedule to assign the datapool values to the variables that are defined in multiple tests. In previous releases, to apply the datapool values to multiple tests, you had to associate the datapool to each test. The Datapool Mapper is able to map the datapool columns with the variables.
