Synchronization

Synchronization


Synchronization point is nothing but time interface between Tool and Application build.Generally Synchronization point is to give waiting time to the tool  before executing next step in Test script.
Different methods in QTP for Synchronization:
1. Wait statements.
2. Exist Statments.
3. Sync Method (Only for WEB).
4. Inserting Synchronization points.
5. Increasing Tool default synchronization time.
Wait Statements:
♦ Wait statements is used when we want QTP to wait for specified time, so that AUT completes its current operations.
♦ Wait(n) statement waits for specified 'n' seconds.
♦ Wait() statement without specifying the seconds will make QTP wait up to maximum time, even though operations is
   completed.

Example:
Systemutil.Run "iexplore.exe","http:\\www.gmail.com"
 
'Wait  for  5 sec for  Gmail browser launch
Wait 5
 
'Enter  Email id in Username Field
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Page("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").WebEdit("name:=Email").Set  "qtpworld.com"
 
'Enter password in Password Field
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Page("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").WebEdit("name:=Passwd").Set  "qtp"
 
'Cick on the Sign In Button 
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Page("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").WebButton("name:=Sign in").Click

Exist Statements:

We can enter Exist statements to instruct QuickTest to wait for a window to open or an object to appear. Exist statements return a boolean value indicating whether or not an object currently exists.

Example:

Systemutil.Run "iexplore.exe","http:\\www.gmail.com"
 
'Wait till Gmail browser exists
Do while  Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Exist(1) = False
 
Wait 1
Loop
 
'Enter  Email id in Username Field
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Page("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").WebEdit("name:=Email").Set  "qtpworld.com"
 
'Enter password in Passowrd Field
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Page("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").WebEdit("name:=Passwd").Set  "qtp"
 
'Cick on the Sign In Button 
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Page("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").WebButton("name:=Sign in").Click

Sync Method: (only for WEB)

Waits for the browser to complete current navigation.
Syntax:

Object hirearchy.Sync
Example:

Systemutil.Run "iexplore.exe","http:\\www.gmail.com"
 
'Wait till Gmail browser launches
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Sync
 
' Enter  Email id in Username Field
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Page("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").WebEdit("name:=Email").Set  "qtpworld.com"
 
'Enter password in Passowrd Field
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Page("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").WebEdit("name:=Passwd").Set  "qtp"
 
'Cick on the Sign In Button 
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Page("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").WebButton("name:=Sign in").Click

Inserting Synchronization points:

Synchronization point is nothing but time interface between Tool and Application build.Generally Synchronization point is to give waiting time to the tool  before executing next step in Test script.

Steps to follow for Inserting Syncronization points:

Position cursor in desired location-->QTP should be in recording mode-->Insert menu-->Synchronization point -->Show the object -->click OK-->select property name and Value (True)-->enter time in Milli seconds-->click OK-->Stop recording.

Increasing Tool default synchronization time:
Default Time in QTP is 20 Seconds.

Steps to follow for Increasing default syncronization time:
File-->settings-->run tab-->increase object synchronization time out-->Apply-->OK

Performance Testing in the Cloud with JMeter & AWS

JMeter is a wonderful tool  to stress test your website and  your application architecture , however if you are trying to simulate many users (>1000) one JMeter instance (=pc) will not be sufficient. You will have to set up a JMeter cluster with multiple machines. JMeter is capable or running  distributed tests , but it comes with limitations. Since most of us don’t have multiple servers laying around somewhere, we usually go to cloud service providers like  AWS , spin up a couple of  EC2 instances  and turn them off whenever we’re done. Here is the problem, JMeter uses  Java RMI (Remote Method Invocation)  to communicate to its slaves, but these connections require all machines to be on the same subnet and this is not feasible with EC2 instances. Below, I explain how to get around this problem using a 3 node configuration in AWS to execute tests. I assume that you have a written the test already and have the .jmx file r...

JMeter Exceeded Maximum Number of Redirects Error Solution

While running performance test, JMeter allows maximum 5 redirects by default. However, if your system demands more than 5 redirects, it may result in JMeter exceeded maximum number of redirects error. In this post, we have listed down steps to overcome this error. Actual error in JMeter: Response code: “Non HTTP response code: java.io.IOException” Response message: “Non HTTP response message: Exceeded maximum number of redirects: 5” This error is noticed because  JMeter  allows maximum 5 redirects by default and your system may be using more than 5 redirects. You need to increase this count to more than 5 in jmeter.properties file. Follow below steps to achieve this. Navigate to /bin directory of your JMeter installation. Locate jmeter.properties file and open it in any editor. Search for “httpsampler.max_redirects” property in opened file. Uncomment the above property by removing # before it. Change to value to more than 5 Eg. 20. Save the file and restart JMet...

SSO with SAML login scenario in JMeter

SAML(Security Assertion Markup Language) is increasingly being used to perform single sign-on(SSO) operations. As WikiPedia puts it, SAML is an XML-based open standard data format for exchanging authentication and authorization data between parties, in particular, between an identity provider and a service provider. With the rise in use of SAML in web applications, we may need to handle this in JMeter. This step-by-step tutorial shows SAML JMeter scenario to perform login operation. First request from JMeter is a GET request to fetch Login page. We need to fetch two values ‘SAMLRequest’ and ‘RelayState’ from the Login page response data. We can do this by using  Regular Expression Extractor . These two values need to be sent in POST request to service provider. Refer below image to see how to do this. We will get an HTML login page as a response to the request sent in 1st step. We need to fetch values of some hidden elements to pass it in the next request. We...
