We use WinRunner as a load testing tool operating at the GUI layer as it allows us to record and playback user actions from a vast variety of user applications as if a real user had manually executed those actions.  We use WinRunner in addition to LoadRunner when we want to record user experience response time.


The above diagram shows how a GUI layer testing tool, such as WinRunner, operates.

The screen image below is a script example of how WinRunner recorded the events on the windows desktop to "Press Start" and then Invoke Internet Explorer by selecting the option marked "Internet".   The text "google.com" was recorded as being entered as a URL and the "return" key (<kReturn>) was then recorded so the IE loaded the Google site into the browser window.  The characters "Mercury Interactive" were then recorded as they were typed.
