This section gives tips and important information to consider when recording a Java Record Replay Vuser Script.
- Make sure that you have properly installed a JDK on the machine running the Vusers. For details, see Set up the environment for Java protocols.
-
The Java Record Replay protocol can record 32- and 64-bit applications.
-
You can also specify a batch (.bat) file as the application to record.
-
Make sure to fill in the correct recording information. For details, see Start Recording dialog box.
- When you load an applet or application from VuGen during recording, it may take several seconds longer than if you were to load it independent of VuGen.
-
If you intend to run the Java Vuser script as a thread, ensure your code is thread-safe.
Although .NET-based and Java protocols support creating threads, we recommend that you do not use background threads in real load testing scenarios because:
-
Threads can degrade tests scalability.
-
Threads can affect performance measurements.
-
The utility functions' behavior is undetermined if called from any thread except the Vuser main thread which runs the vuser_init, Action, and vuser_end actions. This applies to all functions named lr*.
