I have a website which we'll probably want about 10 use cases for.
* Each use case shouldn't have more than 4 screens.
* We'd like to track the following metrics:

o How long to load the complete web page.
o How long to submit the complete web page.
o How long to submit the entire use case.

* We have the requirement that much of the same load generation
scripts can be re-used for ongoing monitoring.

* The type of software is enterprise resource planning
(specifically project management).

Yes, any eValid script is a candidate for server loading...same
script for regression, monitoring, loading, etc.

OK four screens is small/medium and the timings are really
not an issue. What we do is bracket a synchronization command
in the script with ResetTimer/ElapsedTime. The sync commands could be
any of these:

The ones with "AJAX" involve polling the DOM in some way.

I think what you're describing, three measures for four pages in the worst
case will fit in the parameters.

(The 3-minute limit is for nominal play...such a script would
be a candidate for 5-minute playback intervals, etc.)

However, obviously we need to see the use cases and the actual
website and we assume we can have access to the site direct
(not through WebEX, which messes with timings and syncs).

The final caveat is that the timings need to be on non-opaque
objects (no Flash or Applets or Citrix...

I will try and get more information from the application owners in the
mean time. Also I believe we'll be going forward with much of what we
talked about very shortly. We are still waiting on approvals from the
business owners.

We also don't have any use cases for the web site...

I'll let you know when I get the word.
