To test the performance of an application that was developed
by using Microsoft Silverlight,
you can record the application.
Before you begin
Rational® Performance Tester supports
Microsoft Silverlight 5.
About this task
Microsoft Silverlight
communicates with the server in the Windows Communication
Foundation (WCF) Binary format. After recording the Microsoft Silverlight
application, you can transform the format to XML for better readability
and to apply data correlation.
Procedure
- Record the HTTP application as described in Recording an HTTP Test. By
default, Rational Performance Tester transforms
the WCF Binary format into XML format.
- Optional: If you changed the default setting
of Rational Performance Tester to
not transform after the recording, follow the steps in the Transforming binary data in tests topic.
