You can two or more contiguous HTTP pages into one page.
The page title, think times, primary request, and delay are automatically
recalculated for the affected pages. Customized page titles, think
times, primary requests, and delays revert to the default values.
About this task
When you inspect a test, you might notice that some page
boundaries are not at the correct place. These extra pages are caused
by a variety of reasons. For example, during recording you might hover
over a "hotspot" that fetches images as you move on and off of the
spot. In this case, some pages in the test, which properly belong
to the previous page, contain only .gif files. Although you can rerecord
a test in the hope of fixing this problem, if your test is long or
complex, it is often easier to merge the incorrect page when you edit
the test, rather than to rerecord the entire test.
Procedure
- In the Test Navigator, browse to the test and double-click
it. The test opens.
- Select the pages to merge (the pages must be contiguous)
and select Merge Selected Pages
- The Merge Pages window lists the pages
that you are merging. From this list, select the page that will contain
the other pages.
- Optionally, click Keep empty pages to
keep the same number of pages in the test. For example, if you select
this option and merge two pages, one page will contain all of the
requests and the other page will be empty.
What to do next
You can also set preferences so that new pages are not generated when the think time is
less than specified value. Click , and click the
Protocol tab. Enter a value for
Do
not generate new page if think time is <.
