Arguments

Argument	Comments
wasteTime	The time in milliseconds to be set for all open transactions.

lr.wastedTime allows you to subtract the time wasted on incidental or secondary actions from all open transactions.

Parameterization

You cannot use standard parameterization for any arguments in this function.

Example

function Action(){
    var i, baseIter = 1000;
    var dude;
    var wasteTime, actualElapsedTime; 
    var MasterT, timer;

    // Examine the total elapsed time of the action
    MasterT = lr.startTimer();

    //Start transaction
    lr.startTransaction("Demo");

    // Create some elapsed time for the transaction
    for (i=0; i< (10 * baseIter); ++i)
            dude = "This is the way we create elapsed time artificially = "+ i; 

    // Add some think time
    lr.thinkTime(0.5);

    // Create some wasted time and record it with timer
    timer = lr.startTimer();

    for (i=0; i< (5 * baseIter); ++i)
            dude = "This is the way we waste time in a script = " + i;

    wasteTime = lr.endTimer(timer);
    lr.outputMessage("User created waste time = " + wasteTime);
    lr.outputMessage("Before lr_waste_time: Duration = "
       +lr.getTransactionDuration("Demo")+" - Waste = " 
       + lr.getTransactionWastedTime("Demo")
);

    /* Convert Timer in seconds to wasted time in milliseconds 
       and add to internally generated waste time */
    wasteTime *= 1000;
    lr.wastedTime(wasteTime);
    lr.outputMessage("After lr_waste_time: Duration = "
       +lr.getTransactionDuration("Demo"),+" - Waste = " 
       + lr.getTransactionWastedTime("Demo"));

    lr.outputMessage("Think time = " + lr.getTransactionThinkTime("Demo"));

    lr.endTransaction("Demo", lr.AUTO);
