Jmeter tutorial on Jmeter components, terminologies etc…

1.       Thread group – refers the virtual users count applied while performance testing using Jmeter.

How we design the user transactions or thread group?

1)      The requirement is given that 60 user transactions needs to be made. And requested for 3 sec interval between transactions

2)      Then Ram up time should be set 180 sec.  This will fulfill the requirement of 3 sec delay between transactions

3)      This will also ensure that the 60th thread or user will be starting the action at 180th sec.  ( i.e Ramp up time / number of users – will give you the time interval for each uses to kick off. Total ramp up time will be the total time to start all transactions including the 60th one. Based on the transaction scenario length probably first set of 1 to 50th ones may be finished by this time) – similar articles on Jmeter , script Recording

2.       Samplers

Samplers are transaction makers which will let you send transactions.

For e.g HTTP Request sampler is used, it will send HTTP/HTTPS request to the web server. This requests can be manually added or recorded using HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder.

Web embedded resources like CSS, images, java applets, scripts, background images are retrieved by HTTP requests.

3.  Test plan

Test plan is the container of all the performance test scenarios and components of the particular test in Jmeter. Test plan consists of Thread group , temporary work bench, Samplers, etc.

What is TestRunner in Cucumber

What is TestRunner in Cucumber

TestRunner is a program used in Cucumber to access Feature file as copied in the picture below.

Feature file is something that has user requirement scenarios  written in English which gives more readability and understandability of the requirement which is called Gherkin language.

So any roles in the company  like Tester, developer, end user, and techno functional person can read it and understand it. Also this will reduce the complication in terms of missing requirement or misrepresenting or misunderstanding requirements between different roles  like Developer , tester, and  end user,

In order to link Cucumber with Selenium WebDriver, you need to start a Java project in eclipse IDE. Then, add both Cucumber and Selenium jar files

Write test runner code and execute the same . Please refer BDD testing details on Selenium Cucumber

Sample Test runner code:

Automaton testing using Cucumber – Behavior driven development (BDD)

Automation testing using Cucumber – Behavior driven development (BDD)

Application behavior is the main focus on BDD. The requirements are written in English which gives more readability and understandability of the requirement.

So any roles in the company like Tester, developer, end user, and techno functional person can read it and understand it. Also this will reduce the complication in terms of missing requirement or misrepresenting or misunderstanding requirements between different roles like Developer , tester ,  end user etc.

Gherkin is a business readable language, refer below for an example. Below feature file is integrated with Selenium and are having user stories as below.

Please refer below – “feature, Scenario, Given, When, And, Then “are the Keywords below to understand on how to write a feature file…

What is Feature file in Cucumber test and how to create a feature file.

How to use Virtual user generator in HP LoadRunner

HP LoadRunner – how to use Virtual user generator.

1)      Under Windows menu >> HP Software >>  Click on Virtual user generator menu to open HP Virtual user generator application (if you already have HP LoadRunner is installed on machine)

Virtual user generator
Virtual user generator

2)      Select the protocol – refer Snapshot 1  below,

Note 1:  if you are not sure about the protocol, use the protocol adviser in the “Virtual user generator” application and scan the application to find out best matching protocols (refer Snapshot 2 below)

Note 2: for web applications usually “Web – HTTP/HTML” is the protocol, you add additional protocols for database e.g ODBC or Oracle.

How to do smart identification in QTP

How to do smart identification in QTP

Smart identification is needed when recorded script fails to recognize the application object (it may be due to multiple objects has same properties/values or recorded property value is changed)

Smart identification uses additional 2 set of object identification layers (1. Base filter properties 2. Optional filter properties) apart from regular mandatory, assistive properties.

1.       To get smart identification enabled – navigate Tools > Object identification.

1 object identification
1 object identification

2.       On object identification window – click on configure to add 1. Base filter properties 2. Optional filter properties as shown below.
