Input Fields

  • Number of loops: Allows you to set the number of loops that load test program run during the replay.

  • Character Encoding: Defines which character set is used to search strings within the received content and for data which are read from input files. Usually, you can use the default option UTF-8. However, if you execute some tests which contain ISO characters, it is recommended that you use the character set ISO-8859-1 to avoid problems with special characters

  • Strip Referrer Header Field: The HTTP referrer header field is not commonly used by web applications, and also often dropped by (local) internet security tools. Enabling this option reduces the data transfer and makes the load test program smaller.

  • Strip Accept Header Field to */*: The HTTP Accept header field is not commonly used by web applications but contains a long text string. Setting the accept header field to */* reduces the data transfer and makes the load test program smaller.

  • Additional Options: Several additional options for executing the replay can be combined by adding a blank char between each of the options

  • Browser Emulation: User Agents and Caching
     1. User-Agent Selection: This option is used either to create a custom user agent string or select a user agent from the available list.
     2. Browser Cache: This option emulates the cache setting of a real browser.

    • Check for newer versions of stored pages every time: when enabled, ZebraTester will check for later versions of the specified URL than those stored in the cache
