The Web HTTP/HTML protocol provides the following methods for generating Vuser scripts for mobile applications:
| You can use: | To do this: |
|---|---|
| A Capture File to Generate a Vuser Script |
You can use VuGen to analyze a capture file that was created with an external capture file utility, such as Wireshark, and then generate a Vuser script. For details see Create a Vuser Script by Analyzing a Captured Traffic File. |
| An Emulator to Create a Vuser Script |
For many mobile devices, there are third party emulators that you can install on your computer. Once installed, you can use the emulator to record and generate a Vuser script for mobile applications. For details see Using Emulation to Record Mobile Applications. |
| The LoadRunner Proxy to Create a Vuser Script |
The VuGen machine acts as a proxy server capturing all the traffic from the mobile device to the target server. After the business process has been recorded VuGen creates a script. For details, see: |
