UI Element
Description
<Right-click menu>
Additional actions that are available only from the right-click menu:

  • Reset IDs. Resets the IDs of the Vusers in the group.

  • Run Vusers Until Complete. Runs the selected Vusers until complete. If you run Vusers in the Down or Error state, Controller initializes and then runs the Vusers.

  • Run One Vuser Until Complete. Instructs Controller to run a randomly selected Vuser in the Vuser group, until it completes running. The Vuser Log opens, displaying runtime information about the Vuser. For more information, see Vuser script log.

  • Pause Vusers. Temporarily pauses running the Vusers group. The status of the Vuser group changes from Running to Paused. Note that pausing a Vuser group affects its transaction response time.

  • Enable. Enables the Vuser group to participate in the scenario.

  • Disable. Deactivates the Vuser group so that it no longer participates in the scenario.

  • Show Vuser Log. Opens a script log containing runtime information for each Vuser in the group. The Vuser script log is refreshed, by default, every 1000 milliseconds.

  • Hide Vuser Log. Closes the Vuser script logs.

  • Sort By Name. Sorts the groups alphabetically, by name.
