Create Business Transactions

A transaction is a set of related pages that achieve a consistent business interaction. A typical example is the set of pages a user goes through to log in to an application. The idea is to gather these pages into a transaction so that NeoLoad can produce precise time consumptions and statistics on these pages as a whole. These transactions will appear separately in test results making analysis easier. In the login example, we would obtain statistics on the response times users experience from the moment they start connecting to the application to the moment they are actually logged in.

The first step in using transactions is to identify recurring behavior, especially behavior representing an important functionality in the application. Once this behavior pattern has been identified, the corresponding pages are assembled in a transaction (Virtual User Container).

Virtual users assemble recorded HTML pages. Populations group virtual users. Load test scenarios assemble populations.
