LoadRunner components:
LoadRunner contains the following components
Virtual User Generator (VuGen):
Records Vuser scripts that emulate the steps of real users using the
application. In testing environment the LoadRunner replaces human users
with virtual users (Vusers). Vusers create load by emulating actions of
typical users. VuGen works on record and playback principle. You have
to walk through a business process or test process on your application
which is recorded by VuGen into scripts. Then you can run these scripts
n times simulating the test case of n users performs that particular
business process simultaneously.
Controller:
The administrative center for creating, executing and monitoring
Scenarios. It provides you the tools to create the scenarios. Or in
other words you can set attributes of your scenarios here (like think
time). For example you may want 10 users log into a system
simultaneously, you can use rendezvous event.
Analysis: Uses the
Load Test results to create graphs and reports. This is to identify
bottlenecks and performance issues or any other failures in your
system’s performance and then pinpoint the source of these failures.
