## Arguments

Name | Comments
--- | ---
thinkTime | The length of the pause, in seconds.

lr.think_time allows you to pause test execution during a run. This is especially useful in simulating think time, the time a real user pauses to think between actions.

When using cross-step downloads or asynchronous functions of any kind, a long think time may cause the download to time out.

## Return Values

No value returned.

## Parameterization

Standard parameterization is not available for this function.

## Example

In the following segment, lr.think_time instructs the test run component to pause for 1 second before outputting the Vuser IP string.

Copy code

    lr.start_transaction"test"
    lr.think_time 1
    lr.output_message "vuser: " + lr.get_vuser_ip()
    lr.end_transaction "test", lr.PASS}
