Understanding Load Runner Terminology
Scenarios - A scenario identifies the scripts to execute, the number of
Vusers, goals of the test and the conditions under which to run the
tests.
Vusers - Vusers emulate the actions of
human users working with your application. A scenario can contain tens,
hundreds, or even thousands of Vusers.
Vuser Scripts - The actions that a Vuser performs during the scenario are described in a Vuser script.
Transactions - To measure the performance of the server, you define
transactions. A transaction represents end-user business processes that
you are interested in measuring.
Load Generators – They
are dedicated machines which are used to run the Vusers that generate
load on the application under test.
