ExampleRuntime Functions

Syntax

lr.rendezvousEx( rendezvous_name );

Arguments

ArgumentComments
rendezvous_nameThe name of the rendezvous.

The lr.rendezvousEx function creates a rendezvous point in a Vuser script. When this statement is executed, the Vusers stop and wait for permission to continue.

The default timeout is 30 sec. The timeout is set in the scenario policy in the Controller.

This function can only be used in an action section, and not in vuser_init or vuser_end.

The difference between this function and lr.rendezvous is that lr.rendezvous does not return a range of values.
