Hi,
i am working on 8.1 version of LR.
i have 36 scripts recorded (209 vusers) in Http/html and 1 script is recorded in click &Script (6 Vusers).
i am trying to run all the 37 scripts in controller but for C&S only one vuser is running and other 5 get failed in first iteration.

has any one idea about this kind of situation.
1. whether both protocol works together?
2. and why 5 vusers are failing?

waiting for any critical input
thanks in advance
Nesh

Hi,

My company had a license of 250 vuser for LoadRunner. How could I run load test for more than 250 license. Is there any way?

Only problem I face is thet this is slower, and some time does not redord on popup windows… I contacted HP and they gave a stange answer They dont support webclick and script offically now and will do it from version 9 and above.. I dont know what the hec is happening. Mercury released this long back…

Other caveats with C&S

1: has trouble with some AJAX
2: almost always needs to run as process, not thread, if you run it as thread and go above 30 or so Vusers, the useage of MMDRV spikes to as close to 100% as it can get.

This works like a piece of cake with the application we are testing, a highly wild untamable application that requires lot of correlation running on websphere :) The only downside is the high resource requirements of the loadgenerator machines. I have to say this though. It takes away a lot of flexibility that you would normally have if we stick on to HTTP/HTML protocol.

I am not trying to review the new protocol. Neither I am qualified to do so. Here are my observations.

Pros:
1. Script generated is clean and highly readable
2. Avoids the need of correlation 90% of the times.
3. Low turnaround times during scripting. ~5x more efficient.

Cons:
1. Do not have sufficient control over the content that we would download during the tests. There are no EXTRARES statememts whatsoever with C&S.
2. Poorly written javascript in the pages can some times play havoc with your script.

NOTE: If you are familiar with regex it is a pleasing experience working with C&S.

Hello:

I am working with load runner for quite some time and have worked on few famous protocols.

I want to know if scripts created in click and script protocol are good enough for load testing.

Please advice! Your thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks
