  • When a script is opened in Controller, run-time settings  also gets copied from VUGen to controller. Check out components of LoadRunner.
  • Any changes done in the script and run-time settings are not reflected in the controller unless you refresh them. image
  • Refresh in controller can be done by going to Design > {Highlighting scenario group} that are using script in question > Clicking Details button > Clicking the REFRESH button on the Group Information pop-up window. So next time when controller asks you to load new script iteration settings do the refresh.
  • While doing Save As:
    • Default directory in VUGen can be changed by going to vugen.ini file located under C:\Program Files\HP\LoadRunner\config and appending the required file path to LastScriptPath (as shown on the right).
    • Default directory in Controller can be changed by going to wlrun.ini file located under C:\Program Files\HP\LoadRunner\config and appending the required file path to M_ROOT
  • Note that THINK time is ignored in VUGen while played back as recorded in Controller.

    2. In order to make a Loadrunner license purchasing decision, I understand that one needs to provide number of Controllers and number of Vusers.

    Now, how do we decide on how many controllers are required?
    Can we use 1 controller with any number of Vusers.
    We may need vusers of different protocol mix like .Net / Database / SOA / Web and Multimedia.

    3. Not getting the sentence “Note that THINK time is ignored in VUGen while played back as recorded in Controller.” Please explain more on it.
