Using VS 2005 and 2008 I have created many web test. Many times the response times do not portray the actual user experience. For example, running a web test that returns 1.5 MB of data used to build a large tree view may show a response time of half a second, yet when I run the steps manually in IE local to the webserver, it takes around 7 seconds. My guess is that most of those 7 seconds is being consumed by the browser rendering the controls. Is there a way to capture these true response times? Thank You and Have a FANTASTIC Day.
You will have to hook into the browsers events, to do so will require inserting trace code into the client/browser and may vary depending on the machine running the browser instance being tested. This may be automateable using a compiler directive or application setting to turn on and off then inject javascript / ajax into the pages.
