Performance metrics

The following performance metrics can be recorded by TruClient:

Metric Description
End to end transaction response time This includes the client time, such as browser rendering time.
Web page component breakdown Load times can be broken down by Web page and resource.
HAR TruClient can generate a standard HAR file in some configurations. If you have Network Virtualization installed and you replay a script in VuGen load mode, a HAR file is created. The pathname is <result path>/<group name>_<vuser ID>/<group name>_<vuser ID>.har.
Throughput

Count of bytes transferred between the browser and the server.
Hits

Count of HTTP requests sent from the client.
Connections

Count of connections opened by the browser to the server.
DOM Interactive

Displays the average time per document, in milliseconds, since the browser has finished parsing all of the HTML and DOM construction is complete.

Note: Available in Chrome and TruClient Browser only.
DOMContentLoaded Event duration

Displays the average time per document, in milliseconds, it takes for the DOMContentLoaded event to occur (a point when the document has been completely loaded and parsed without waiting for stylesheets, images, and subframes to finish loading).

Note: Available in Chrome and TruClient Browser only.
Page Load Event duration

Displays the average time per document, in milliseconds, it takes for the load event to occur (a point when the whole page has loaded, including all dependent resources such as stylesheets and images).

Note: Available in Chrome and TruClient Browser only.

Note:  

  • Support for the Connections measurement will be discontinued in upcoming versions of TruClient.

  • You can identify a single activity in a business process in a script by using start and end transaction markers. Some metrics are only generated per transaction and most metrics are far more useful when you know what activity they measure.
