Interview Question : How do you perform functional testing under load?
Answer :
If several load generators need to access the same physical files,
rather than having to remember to copy the files each time they change,
each load generator can reference a common folder using a mapped drive.
But since drive mappings are associated with a specific user:
- Logon the load generator as the user the load generator will use
- Open Windows Explorer and under Tools select Map a Network
Drive and create a drive. It saves time and hassle to have consistent
drive letters across load generators, so some organizations reserver
certain drive letters for specific locations.
- Open the LoadRunner service within Services (accessed from Control Panel, Administrative Tasks),
- Click the "Login" tab.
- Specify the username and password the load generator service
will use. (A dot appears in front of the username if the userid is for
the local domain).
- Stop and start the service again.
