Performance testing using LoadRunner12.5

Explore LoadRunner 12.5's core components—virtual user generator, controller, and analysis—and learn recording, runtime settings, and real-time monitoring for performance testing.

Learn how to download and install LoadRunner 12.5, create a new account, verify email, download the community edition, install prerequisites, and configure three components: virtual user generator, controller, and analysis.

Learn recording in loadrunner for a web-based application by selecting a protocol and capturing sign up and login actions between the client and server.

The protocol analyzer explains how performance testing with loadrunner identifies all protocols used by an application, guiding protocol selection during recording through a browser-based demo of registration and flight booking.

Run scripts in loop with LoadRunner 12.5, set runtime pacing, implement fixed and random delays, manage iterations and unique data, and analyze logs to verify outcomes.

Define and manage actions in LoadRunner 12.5, using default actions and multiple named actions to structure recordings, including login and logging workflows with action blocks.

Learn to use action blocks in LoadRunner 12.5 to run scripts in loops, control iterations, and manage sequential or random action order, including login, flight, home, and reservation actions.

In LoadRunner 12.5, measure the time taken by a step or group of steps with transactions, using start and end points during recording and in controller results.

Analyze the two transactions, namely registration and sign-out, by reviewing the logs and result window to identify transaction times and durations.

Explore performance testing with LoadRunner12.5 by deploying a rendezvous point to synchronize multiple users hitting the same function concurrently, using generator and controller settings.

Learn parameterization basics in LoadRunner 12.5 by creating external data sources, driving scripts with unique user data, enabling extended logs, and verifying data substitution across iterations.
