Although it has been awhile since we’ve posted updates, we continue to make improvements to LoadNinja every day. Here are some of the highlights over the past couple of months. Record Tests and Generate Load from India and Canada You now have the ability to create tests and distribute load from India and Canada. This means if your end users are present in these regions, you should be able to create more accurate performance tests that are representative of your real-world scenarios. The following locations are available: US East (North Virginia) EU North (Stockholm) EU West (London) EU Central (Frankfurt) AP Southeast (Sydney) Central (Canada) Asia Pacific (Mumbai) Learn more here. Create Tests for Applications with Chrome Security Block Chrome may block pop-ups when it believes that may be a security threat. You may notice this when surfing websites. You now have the ability to disable this security block in the real browsers used to record and load test your web application so you can create performance tests to such pop-ups with ease. Learn more. Compare between recorded page and page seen during playback You can now see the page captured during recording at different points in the playback log, and compare that with the page seen during playback. Learn more. Better User Management The user management system has been greatly streamlined! Account owners can now invite team members easily. LoadNinja will automatically send an email asking the invited user to join the shared account. Learn more.

Announcing LoadNinja updates: Enhancements to Object Recognition & Recorder Log We're excited to highlight some new enhancements and features that have been added to LoadNinja over the past several weeks! Object Recognition using DOM Link Path For elements with dynamic CSS IDs and xPaths, the LoadNinja recorder can now identify elements based on their DOM path. This includes identifying elements based on element type and associated text labels. This enhancement is especially beneficial in cases where your xPath is not unique or when the object classes are dynamic. Recorder Log With the log, you'll be able to see how long the different actions in the script took to playback as well as any errors that may have led to a playback failure. These insights will help you understand which SLAs to set during a load test, and identify script playback issues faster. Learn more here Ability to Filter Items in VU Debugger Find errors of relevance faster through an easy-to-use filtering mechanism in the VU Debugger tab of your load test results. Copy & Paste Items into Script Paste text items as part of your script recording. This means you no longer have to type long text items manually when recording your script.
