helps you to view and analyze the performance results.
What’s the Scenario?
Scenario
is a file that contains the events that occurs during each testing sessions.
What’s the Vuser?
In Scenario, LoadRunner replaces human user with Virtual User or
Vuser. Vuser emulates the human action working with your application.

The
action that Vuser performance during the scenario are described in the Vuser
script.
What’s the Transaction?
To
measures the performance of the server, we define the Transaction.

Load
Testing process have five steps-
·
Plan Test
·
Create Vuser script
·
Define Scenario
·
Run Scenario
·
Analyze Results
What’s the Rendezvous Point?
We
can insert Rendezvous Points into Vuser script to emulates the heavy load on
the server.
What’s the Think Time?
Think
Time represent the actual time that we waited between the steps.
What are the section contain by the VuGen while creating a Vuser script?
VuGen
contain the three section-
·
Vuser Init Section
·
Action Section
·
Vuser end Section
What’s the Vuser Init Section?
In
Vuser Init section, LoadRunner records log in the server.
What’s the Action Section?
In
Action section, LoadRunner records end user activities.
What’s the Vuser end Section?
In
Vuser end section, LoadRunner records log off into the server.
How do you edit the script?
We
can edit the script by inserting the Transaction Points and Rendezvous Points.
What’s the LoadRunner Start-Transaction and it’s syntax?
It
start the Transaction on the script and it’s syntax is that
“lr-start-transaction”.
What’s the LoadRunner End-Transaction and it’s syntax?
It
end the Transaction on the script and it’s syntax is that “lr-end-transaction”
What’s .lrs?
It’s
extension of LoadRunner Scenario files.
Which component you are using for recording the vuser script?
We
are using Vugen component for recording the Vuser script.
Which component you are using for playback the script?
We
are using Controller component for playback the script.
What’s the Parameterization?
Parameterization
is script variables which are used to pass many values to server. It emulates
the actions of human user.
What are changes we can make in Run Time Settings?
We
can set the Run Logic, Pacing, Log, Think Time.
What’s the Run Logic?
In
Run Logic we can set the number of repititions which are performing by Vuser.
What’s the Pacing?
In
Pacing we can set the time to wait between each repititions.
What’s the Log?
Log
is level of information which we want to gather during run time.
Where we can set the number of repititions?
We
can set the number of repititions in Run Time Settings.
What’s the Ramp-Up and where we can set this?
Ramp-Up
option used to increases the number of Vuser in server and we can set the this
option through scenario schedule.
What’s the Host?
Host
is machine which execute the Vuser script.
What are process for developing a Vuser script?
There
are five steps for developing a Vuser Script-
·
Record Vuser script
·
Edit Vuser script
·
Change Run Time
Setting
·
Run Vuser script in
stand alone machine
·
Incorporate the Vuser
script into loadrunner scenario
What’s the Remote Command Luncher?
RCL
enables the controller to start the application on the host machine.
What’s the LoadRunner Agent?
Agent
is interface between controller and host machine.
How to load LoadRunner Agent?
Controller
insturct the RCl to lunch the LoadRunner Agent.
How many types of Vuser are available in LoadRunner?
There
are many types of Vuser like DB Vuser, SAP Vuser, Web Vuser, RTE, GUI Vuser.
What type of functions are generated and inserted by LoadRunner?
LoadRunner
generated two types of functions-
·
LR Function
·
Protocol Function
What’s the LR function?
LR
function is obtained the information about the running Vuser.
What’s the Protocol Function?
Protocol
function obtained the information about the type of Vuser.
What’s the Scenario Wizard?
We
can create new scenario through Scenario Wizard.
What’s the Pause command?
It
will change the status of running vuser to pause.
What’s the running Vuser graph?
It
displays the number of Vusers that execute the Vuser script each seconds of
scenario run.
What’s the percentile graph?
It
displays the percentage of transaction which were performed with in given time.
What’s the Rendezvous graph?
It
displays that when Vusers released from rendezvous point and how many Vusers
released from each point.
