To verify that a test is performing as you intend, use
the Protocol Data view, which displays the HTML details that were
generated during a schedule run. If problems occur in a test run,
you can also compare the data retrieved during the run with the recorded
data.
Before you begin
Set the detail level. The amount of detail that you can see
in the Protocol Data view depends on the
Test Log settings
in the schedule; see
Setting
the data that the test log collects. If you plan to use the
Protocol Data view and your schedule run is not large, select the
setting
All for all types of events. For large
schedule runs, do not use the
All setting,
because of the time and space required to transfer large amounts of
log detail to your computer after a run is completed. You might create
a special schedule for Protocol Data view runs with the log levels
set to
All. Limit this schedule to a single
test (or a small number of tests) and to a small number of user groups
or loop iterations. After you are satisfied that a test is performing
correctly, you can move it to a schedule that emulates a realistic
workload.
