Measuring response times
A response time measures the delay between a specified
start event and a specified stop event. Typically, the start of the
measurement is set to a mouse or keyboard input. Similarly, the stop
is set to a window create, window activate, or window destroy event
that is a response to the input event, or an image synchronization
element that was recorded with the test.
Before you begin
Response time measurements require a start element and a stop element. If either of these are missing, the response time definition is displayed with an error or warning marker.
About this task
When the Response time for main windows option is selected in the Citrix Test Generation preferences, recorded tests are generated with a response time measurement each time a main window is created. Generated measurements start on the event that occurred immediately before a main window is created and stop when the main window is created.
You can view all the response times of a test by selecting the Citrix test element in the test editor. Response times are listed in the Response Time Definitions table where they can be edited, renamed, or deleted.
