LoadComplete Feature Requests

For the application we need to test to work well, we need to start browser Chrome with a setup option:  " --allow-running-insecure-content"   Right now, this scenario is not supported in LoadComplete, since you can only select caching mode:   Currently, there is not an option to set any chrome startup flags, so if you enable the option "Launch Web browser", Chrome is started (by LoadComplete), there is no way to control Chrome (or any other browser) setup behaviour.         ...

Currently you can only set QoS (value for page load time, TTFB) values for tests. However I need to be able to set QoS on specific pages (or even better) specific requests/responses.   So in my opinion LC could be improved by implementing QoS values on requests/responses. See attached screenshot.   ... View more

Currently, it's not possible to quickly enable/disable specific entries you have specified in the filter sections. Please include enable/disable checkboxes (on line level), so that enable/disabling can be done more easily.   See attached screenshot.   ... View more

Currently, there is no way to easy enable/disable a test item in Test Editor. Only way to disable an item is to delete an item, or add an item to enable it again.   See attached screenshot. I'd suggest to add an item Enabled, with checkboxes for each test item in the list, so that quickly enabling/disabling of test items is possible.       ... View more

Currently (version 4.6), when you rename an already created scenario, the new name is not automatically inherited. Resulting in errors, just because you rename a scenario.   Please support renaming scenarios as it should be.   ... View more

This feature request is based on following: I need to implement a validation, based on value of ContentLength. The test should fail if ContentLength equals 0. I have read the info about validation here. But this only works for validation on strings.   I want to have a validation based on numeric value of a response. Of course, the value of the Contenlength changes for every request (it's not a fixed value). Only thing that counts is that validation should pass if ContentLength value > 0, and that it should fail in all other cases.   There is currently no easy way to implement such validation. I would like LoadComplete to be improved with such easy validation. See attached screenshot for clarification.   ... View more

When editing a tests requests, allow the users to set up the screens as they need them for that session or user, and have a lock button so that for each request, the work area remains in the same configuration, so that they don't need to keep changing things around  each time.   A found in one session where I had to check every request I sent 20% of the time changing the environment around. ...

Hi,   Initial clauses: Consider this use case as a sample: login - get one page with items list - order one item - purchase ordered item - logout. The root idea is that because of reusability and maintenance considerations, it is better to record and execute not a lot of similar complex end-to-end scenarios, but several smaller separate stand-alone ones and combine them using the Call Scenario operation. It is expected, that using this approach it will be possible to create, for example, these additional scenarios: -- login - logout; -- login - get random number of pages with items list - logout; -- login - order random number of items - purchase items - logout. From the reusability point of view it is expected that if, for example, the login scenario changes, only this simple scenario has to be recorded and correlated a-new but not all affected large and complex scenarios. It should be noted here that while it is possible to refresh the correlation rules for the already existing scenario, this does not apply to scenarios launched from the Call Scenario operation. The above considerations are, probably, the major cornerstone for my feature request, so please let me know if my initial idea is wrong, not recommended or is not adopted by real practitioners because of some reason. If the above idea is an acceptable one, it is obvious that data correlation will be required when combining separate scenarios to work together. I believe that this can be done more or less easily with the existing functionality of LoadComplete when complete scenario is recorded initially and is split later to several smaller stand-alone ones. Now the problem: Assume that in the course of the project, the page that displays items list (Items List page) was modified and requires different set of requests to be displayed. This means that the scenario that obtains this page must be re-recorded and correlated with the existing scenarios. In its turn this means that (some) of the Data Selectors and Data Replacers that existed in the initial version of the Items List page must be recreated for the updated version of the page. Actual request: In order to make it more easy and convenient to find Data Selectors and Data Replacers in the initial version of the page, create them (only the needed ones, probably, with some modifications) in the new version of the page and apply at proper places, some functionality for side-by-side comparison of the requests that belong to two different pages with the possibility to modify requests of the target page should be useful and helpful. Could you please consider this? Thank you for your consideration.   P.S. This feature request is based on the Case #00222701 and might be related to the https://community.smartbear.com/t5/LoadComplete/Transform-functional-TestComplete-test-into-Loadtest/td-p/138467 thread.

In order to be able to create more real-life test scenarios I would like to ask to make it possible to use variables as operation parameters. For example, a sample scenario is to make a user to order a random number of items. The idea of how to implement this is to record the ordering of one item, add the Loop operation to the scenario and move relevant requests into the loop. The current problem is that the loop can repeat only the fixed number of iterations. Expected improvement is that it will be possible to create a project variable of random type in the range, say, from 1 to 10 and reference this variable as a loop counter. The expected result is that every virtual user will order random number of items in the range between 1 and 10. Thanks, /Alex ========================= ... View more

 Utilizing oAuth2 tokens; LoadComplete cannot handle passing the token while running load tests in the format required, when using "resource owner credentials grant". This cause the "Data" variable in the Authorization header to contain corupt or incomplete date failing the step. Please add this fuctionality. ... View more

Please add an "Errors" section to LoadComplete reports.  Currently, there is only a pass/fail section.   This tells you how many requests passed and how many failed - but does give a breakdown of the errors showing why they failed.  It is important to know if the app was experiencing server error 500's or merely redirects.   Things to include:   Errors per page chart:  Show each page and how many errors it generated   Pie chart of error types:  Showing the percentage of each error type.   Error Detail: Show each error.  Include request header, response header, response body (snippet) - this can be limited to the first nn errors. ...

For some metrics like %CPU and %Disk Time, the scales created in Custom Charts do not make intuitive sense. In the below example, the scale for %CPU goes from 0 - 600. This makes it harder to visually interpret the chart.   Would be nice to fix this for metrics that are percentage values, or perhaps give the user the ability to manually adjust the scales. (This could also be useful to create a unified report in some fringe use cases of running multiple simultaneous load tests against the same server.)   ... View more

Hi,   I would like to ask for the possibility to copy and paste functionality to be able to copy requests to another page and scenario. There is a Copy command in the context menu for request in the Scenario Editor, but the Paste menu command is always disabled. (Not sure if I remember it correctly, but it seems to me that this was possible in the early LoadComplete 2.x versions.)   Thanks. ... View more

Hi,   Please guide me if I missed this functionality in LoadComplete, but I think that variables created using the Variables panel are lacking some dynamics. For example, I often need the random date that is not in the future but may be equal to today. The current implementation of Variables makes it possible to generate a random date variable, but only within hardcoded dates range. I think that it might help if it is possible to implement some set of simple macros in LoadComplete so that, for my example, it is possible to specify, say, {CurrentDate} in the To field of the Variable Wizard and get a random date value from some date in the past and up to today.   Thoughts? ...
