We are excited to present this month challenge created by the Scott Moore
Challenge Overview:
1.👉🏻Choose Your Web Application:
Select a web application for which you have permission and security access to automate a business process and monitor the backend infrastructure (web server, database server, etc.).
2.💻Create an Automated Business Process:
Craft an automated business process, ranging from simple to complex. The process should include at least three business transaction timings.
3.✍🏻Record Two Identical Scripts:
Script 1: Utilize the RealBrowser protocol.
Script 2: Leverage the traditional HTTP/Web protocol.
4.📃Execute a Load Test:
Run a small load test with fewer than 10 virtual users, spanning up to 15 minutes. This will provide valuable insights into transaction times.
5.*👉🏻 Evaluate Tricentis NeoLoad on Gartner Peer Insights:
Help your peers find the best solution. Start review here.
Things to keep in mind:
- Reviews are anonymous.
- Personal emails are not accepted by Gartner Peer Insights. Use your business email or sign in with LinkedIn.
- Keep your review relevant and do not mention specific individuals.
- All submissions are reviewed by Gartner to ensure validity.
Why the Timing Discrepancies?
Upon reviewing the test results, you'll likely observe differences in transaction times between the RealBrowser and HTTP/Web scripts. Your task is to explain these discrepancies and understand the underlying factors contributing to them.
Key Questions to Address:
- Why do transaction times differ between the two scripts?
- What impact does the choice of protocol have on the overall performance?
- How do RealBrowser and HTTP/Web protocols interact with the backend infrastructure during the automated process?
Sharing Your Results:
We encourage participants to share their findings in the comments section below. Alternatively, if you're more comfortable, you can send your detailed report to shiftsync@tricentis.com. To ensure your submission is considered, please add a comment stating that you have submitted the report via email.
