Hi All, Currently i am recording a script in mozilla , and working on it. Ideally my application demands to support IE9/10 , but i get windows security error. So i am using Http / https protocol in mozilla , and running my test. When my test is on , i am getting response time within limits(ie 3-4 secs). But when running manually on browser , there is a huge difference(Response time goes till 20 secs) . What I feel is , the response time of transactions does not include UI Rendering part , it just gives 200 Ok http response code. So , please suggest me how should i bring UI Rendering part , in my performance testing scripts. Thanks Suraj Hindvani
 
The Web http/HTML protocol does not perform UI rendering by design, it works on transport layer. Its main purpose is creating load on the server. It measures client side time but on transport layer and not on UI. In order to measure client side browser rendering time (UI) you can use TruClient protocol which works on the UI level. Ideally you should use a combination of both - Web HTTP/HTML for generating high load on the server and TruClient for measuring client side performance.
 
I would suggest you use TruClient protocol if your using Mozilla. And does your application use Windows credentials to login?
 
Thanks Igor Markov..I will try out your suggestion and get back to you for further assistance if required.
 
Suraj Hindvani ; I want you cross check if you are really hitting the servers. if you are creating any accounts/ptofiles/searches/generating reports. can you confirm them from Backend that you are actually doing which you are supposed to do?? bcoz.. rendering objects to the browser should not be that huge gap...
 
Agree with Ramanna.Cross check your script and validate if those steps are being performed as expected. There could be difference in resonse time but it should not be so huge. Check logs on app server side or db side if u have access.
 
Hi all , This is sparsh working with suraj. Mukesh Dhingra - i am working on it. HTTP watch is a great tool , i don't have a full version on it ,which can be really helpful. Chakraborty Mithun-- There are lots of certificates in IE , which is provided by client itself. so i don't think i can get rid of those. Generally i get windows security error , when i start rec. , and as a end user , the app is working fine in IE 9/10. Ramana Reddy Manish Sinha -- in my scripts , i am only doing the navigation from one page to another , which is calling web-services consumed in the application. The issue is in the navigation itself , which is taking 10-15 secs , to bring UI of the application onto screen. Still i will check the app and db logs. Thank All!!
