Using Test Setting file to run web performance tests in different environments

Hello,
I have a set of web performance tests that I want to be able to run in different environments.
Currently I have csv file containing the url of the load balancer of the particular environment I want to run the load test containing the web performance tests in, and to run it in a different environment I just edit this csv file.
Is it possible to use the test settings file to point the web performance tests at a particular environment?
I am using VSTS 2012 Ultimate.
Thanks

Instead of using the testsettings I suggest using the "Parameterize web servers" command (found via context menu on the web test, or via one of the icons). The left hand column then suggests context parameter names for the parameterised web server
URLs. It should be possible to use data source entries instead. You may need to wrap the data source accesses in doubled curly braces if editing via the "Parameterize web servers" window.
Regards
Adrian

Web performance test using Ultimate VS2012 is possible?

Hello,
I worked on automation using VS2012 for different client who used .net. Now i am on different account who used Java and my goal is same to convert day to day functionality checked in automation. Any help?? how to start where to start???

Hi SCRana,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
According to your description, you mean that you want to set the breakpoint and debug the web performance test during using the recorder to record this web performance test, am I right?
As far as I know that there have no this feature of breakpoint/debugger in web performance test.
Generally, we set the breakpoint and debug this coded web performance test after we finished this web performance recording.
So if you still want to this feature, I suggest you could submit this feature request:
http://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio.
The Visual Studio product team is listening to user voice there. You can send your idea there and people can vote. If you submit this suggestion, I hope you could post that link here, I will help you vote it.
Thanks for your understanding.

Can Web Performance Test work on AJAX or Javascript Project which will show only one URL for all the pages?

Hi there,
I'm working on testing a AJAX and JavaScript Project which has several pages but all in the same URL. I need to test some attribute on the page or parameter past by AJAX or Javascript. Can Web Performance Test work to get what I want?
Thanks,

Hello,
Thank you for your post.
Web performance test is used to test if a server responses correctly and the response is consistent with what we expected. And we test the response speed, the stability and scalability.
The Web Performance Test Recorder records both AJAX requests and requests that were submitted from JavaScript, but
web test does not execute JavaScript. I am afraid that you can’t use web test to test parameter past by AJAX or JavaScript.
Please see:
Web Performance Test Engine Overview
About JavaScript and ActiveX Controls in Web Performance Tests
From the first link, “Client-side scripting that sets parameter values or results in additional HTTP requests, such as AJAX, does affect the load on the server and might require you to manually modify the Web Performance Test to simulate the scripting.”
If you want to execute the function typically performed by script in web test, you need to accomplish it in coded web performance test or a web performance test plugin. Please see:
How to: Create a Coded Web Performance Test
How to: Create a Web Performance Test Plug-In
I am not sure what the ‘some attribute on the page’ is. If you mean that you want to test those controls on the page, you can do coded UI test, which can test that the user interface for an application functions correctly. The coded UI test performs actions
on the user interface controls for an application and verifies that the correct controls are displayed with the correct values. You can refer to this article for detailed information about code UI test:
Verifying Code by Using Coded User Interface Tests

ActiveX Control recording but not playing back in a VS 2012 Web Performance Test

I am testing an application that loads an Active X control for entering some login information. While recording, this control works fine and I am able to enter information and it is recorded. However on playback in the playback window it has the error "An
add-on for this website failed to run. Check the security settings in Internet Options for potential conflicts."
Window 7 OS 64 bit
IE 8 recorded on 32 bit version
I see no obvious security conflicts. This runs fine when navigating through manually and recording. It is only during playback where this error occurs.

Hi IndyJason,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
As you said that you could not playback the Active X control successfully in web performance test. I know that the ActiveX controls in your Web application will fall into three categories, depending on how they work at the HTTP level.
Reference:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms404678%28v=vs.110%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
I found that this confusion may be come from the browser preview in the Web test result viewer. The Web Performance Test Results Viewer does not allow script or ActiveX controls to run, because the Web performance test engine does not run the, and for security
reasons.
For more information, please you refer to this follwoing blog(Web Tests Can Succeed Even Though It Appears They Failed Part):

Getting Timeout Error when running web performance Webtest using App-Insights

Hi All,
I have created web performance test using VSTS 2013. When I am running this test using App-Insights (Azure Version) I am getting error "Web Test exceeded the configured timeout (00:02:00) and was aborted." In webtest property I set timeout limit
is 300 Sec. still webtest is timeout in 2 min. Kindly let me know Is this problem of App-Insights (Azure Version) or webtest?
Regards,
Sandip

Sandip, Application Insights (both the Azure and VSO versions) override the timeout internally to a max of 2 minutes. No web tests in AI can run for longer than 2 minutes.

Show-stopper Connecting web performance test to remote DB2 server as data source

Hi All,
We are running TFS2010 on VS2010 Ultimate on 2003 server SP-2 with IE 8 for web applications.
We are working on conducting load tests in web-service. Previously we did that using data source from MS SQL to connect our web performance tests. Now we have a new requirement: changing our
data source from MS SQL server to DB2 for good. The DB2 server is in a separate network. I am struggling how I can connect to the DB2 server. For the beginner the firewall setup is being taken care of with a separate initative. So I am a bit startled on how
to connect to DB2 server from Visual Studio. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Please let me know how we can accomplish this goal. Appreciate a lot.
Thank you,
Riz

Thanks for Javaman’s help.
Hi Riz,
Thank you for posting in the MSDN forum.
Actually the real issue in this thread is related to the DB2.
Since it is the third party software, sorry for that it is really out of support range of VS testing forum.
But you could post this issue to the following forum, there you would get better support for it.

How to use the set functions effectively in webi ,please let me know with detail

how to use the set functions effectively in webi ,please let me know with detail

Hi,
we use use set functions on heirarchies with aggregate functions mostly .
If you include member_set, Min returns the minimum value of the aggregated data for all members in the member set.
Member_set can include multiple sets separated by semicolons (;).
The list of member sets must be enclosed in {}.
If the member set expression does not specify a precise member or node, the hierarchy referenced must be present in the table, then the member set expression references the current member in the hierarchy in the table. If the hierarchy is not in the table, the function returns the message #MULTIVALUE.
Eg .
1)     Ancestor
=Sum([YTD] ; {Ancestor([Test Hierarchy];2)})
2)     IsLeaf
=[Test Hierarchy].IsLeaf
You can use this function when you want to show your Measure only at lower level .
3)     .Depth
=[Test Hierarchy].Depth
This is also function used with hierarchy to find Level of Members .

How to use multiple configuration files in a web Application

Hi,
I am using JDev 11 TP3,JBoss4.2.1,Trindad 1.2.4.
In my project I have to use a set of (Login) pages over several other projects.
So I stored those pages (& backing beans) at an external location.
Now while editing the deployment profile of the web application I included the login pages from external location using "Contributors".
This way I was able to bring all the resources in the war. But the Faces-config.xml which contains the managed-bean registration of the login pages does not get included.
1. Either I could change the name of the external faces-config and register it in the current project by includeing it. OR
2. I could mention the managed-bean info in the current project's faces-config.
I want to use option 1.
How may I do it??

Hi,
if you package the managed beans in JAR files and add the faces-config.xml in the META-INF directory of it then it automatically registers at runtime

OSB best practices to run business service on two different environments

Hi.
I am using Service Bus 11gR1
Oracle Service Bus Version: [Oracle Service Bus L10N Dependencies 11.1 Fri Dec 4 17:43:22 EST 2009 ]
Oracle Weblogic Server Version: [WebLogic Server 10.3.5.0 Fri Apr 1 20:20:06 PDT 2011 1398638 ]
I deploy my OSB services on two different environments (development, production).
How to setup business service to run on two different environments without changing source (business service transport Endpoint URI)?
Thanks in advance.

I am not sure of any tutorial.
For your case if you just have one URI and you want to change the URI for the business service you can simply use the OSB Customization file.This is straight forward.
If you have complex routing logic based on inputs fields ,you can follow the below steps,
Create a simple table with Business Service Name,Env and URI as columns.
Create a select DBAdapter to return the URI
Create a business svc out the DBAdapter files
Use the business service to fetch the URI and finally
Use the URI override( ref - http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/service-bus/learnmore/index.html)

Error:The specified network address is currently in use when exe file is run

I get this error(above) when i run my executable files.My exe file is in directly in c:\codes\application.exe. After this, i also like to know how do i enter the URL in a web browser to access this exe file. I have created and change the labview.ini file to application.ini and put it in the same directory as my exe file already.
Kindly provide me with a detailed solution to solve this problem. Thanks

I am not sure what you are doing but I think this is the information you are looking for:
Can I Make My LabVIEW 7.0 Executable Use Remote Front Panels?
There are several other simmlar pages on the web. I went to Advanced Search and looked for executable remote front panel .

Web Performance Test - Record the time of a page and name it after the page has returned.

We have a page that returns a random (as far as we are concerned) value . We need to be able to say how long it took the page when a specific value has appeared.
Here's an example:
Page.aspx can return either red, blue or green.
How do we get the timings for the times it returns red separate from the timings it returns blue etc?
I've tried the following:
1> PostTransaction web plugin - this only has read only fields for transaction name
2> RequestName - we can change this in the PostPage and PostRequest as it's not read only but this doesn't get reflected in the IDE.
3> Adding a fake transaction and then doing some wonderful SQL on the LoadTest2010 database afterwards, but this is a nasty solution and wouldn't display during run time. Not that displaying at run time is needed but the nastiness prevents this.
4> Writing to a file or DB, again a nasty solution, file would lead to locking or gathering masses of individual users files, would also lead to disk issues. DB would lock thread and is advised against in a webtest I believe.
Any ideas please?
Cheers,
Rob

Hi RobbiedCoUK,
Thanks for your friendly response.
>>You said you would find someone to help, have you not been able to?
Tina-Shi help you report this issue to the high-level support, we also didn't get the response now.
But if we get any latest information, we would share it here. Appreciate your patience again!
>>Adrian was just saying that he'd said the same as in my question. It wasn't a solution to the issue.
You are right, since other community members like Adrian still got the same issue as yours, if possible, you could submit a report for this issue, the senior members from the connect report can provide more professional support. Before
we get the response from the high-level support, I think it would be a better way for you to get the suggestion/solution for this issue directly from the connect report since it would be a real issue if other member still got the same issue as yours.
If you submit the report, please also share us the link here, so other members who get the same issue as yours would help you vote it, and we could get the latest information from the report members.
Sincerely,
Jack

How to have Firefox use same bookmark file when running on either Windows XP or Ubuntu (dual boot desktop)

Recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop in a dual-boot configuration with Windows XP. (Ubuntu is awesome !)
I can run Firefox on either OS - each version maintaining its own bookmark file.
Is there any way to have each version of Firefox look in the same place for the bookmark file ? That would remove the need to regularly export/import bookmarks between versions to keep them in sync.
Thanks !

You can use Firefox Sync.

Using WLST to export from MDS - strange- perform diff. in two environments

It is very strange that the same WLST command perform differently in tow environment.
1. I did full export MDS from environment A using the following WLST command
2. import all of them into environment B (before that, I delete meta data from environment B).
3. use the same command below to export from environment B
exportMetadata(application='MyApp',server='AdminServer',toLocation='/mds2',docs='/**') However, in step1, export from environment A, I got over 700 documents (both my customizations and base doc). in step 3, export from environment B, I only got 5 documents (which are my customization only).
Is there any configuration in WLS control how the WLST exportMetadata perform?

Hi,
probably best to try this question on a Web Logic Server forum as WLST doesn't belong to JDeveloper

Setting MX Record When Web and Email on Different Servers

We're moving our website to a new server, but am worried about how to set the DNS record so email keeps going to the old one.
I understand that when I change the A name to the new website's IP address, I should make a new A name, "mail.ourdomain.com" that points to the old/email server's IP address. Then I'd switch the MX record to mail.ourdomain.com.
Now, assuming that's right, what do I need to change on the old/email server. Do I need to change its mail setup to account for "mail.ourdomain.com" instead of simply "ourdomain.com"? Bearing in mind that we want that server to continue accepting mail in the format [email protected]

ROb
If I understand your situation correctly you shouldn't have to change the MX record. You should simply add a record for www and a "null" record that go to the new IP where your website is listed. Post a domain and a dig for more specific help if you like.
