Runtime Functions

Arguments

NameComments
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 example, the think time pauses the replay for 1000 seconds. Output messages indicate the beginning and end of the think time period.

lr.output_message("Begin thinking...");

lr.think_time(1000);

lr.output_message("Finish thinking...");
