What topics are covered in the Loadrunner Online Test?

LoadRunner Basics: LoadRunner Basics covers the fundamental concepts and features of LoadRunner, such as its architecture, components, and user interface. It is important to measure this skill in the test to ensure that candidates have a strong foundation and understanding of Loadrunner's basic functionalities before moving on to more advanced topics.

Scripting and Scenarios: Scripting and Scenarios assess the candidate's ability to create and modify test scripts in Loadrunner using protocols such as HTTP, Web, or SAP. This skill is crucial as it demonstrates the candidate's proficiency in designing realistic scenarios and accurately simulating user behavior during performance testing.

Load Testing Concepts: Load Testing Concepts evaluate the candidate's knowledge of load testing principles, including types of testing, workload modeling, and setting up load profiles. Measuring this skill helps in determining the candidate's ability to analyze and replicate real-world usage patterns in order to simulate realistic loads on the system under test.

Performance Monitoring and Analysis: Performance Monitoring and Analysis focuses on the candidate's proficiency in using Loadrunner's monitoring tools and performing in-depth analysis of test results. This skill is important as it showcases the candidate's ability to identify performance bottlenecks, track system resource utilization, and make informed recommendations for performance improvements.

Script Enhancement and Customization: Script Enhancement and Customization assesses the candidate's ability to enhance and customize test scripts by incorporating additional features or modifications as per specific testing requirements. This skill is valuable as it demonstrates the candidate's flexibility and adaptability in tailoring scripts to accurately emulate desired user scenarios.

Parameterization and Correlation: Parameterization and Correlation evaluate the candidate's knowledge and proficiency in parameterizing and correlating dynamic values and data inputs within the test scripts. This skill is essential to ensure realistic test scenarios by introducing variability in inputs and accurately representing real user interactions with the system.

Think Time and Pacing: Think Time and Pacing involve determining the ideal timing and pacing between simulated user actions within a script. This skill is important as it demonstrates the candidate's ability to design test scenarios that mimic the natural pauses and response times typically observed in real user interactions, leading to more accurate performance testing results.

Response Time and Throughput: Response Time and Throughput focus on the candidate's understanding of measuring and analyzing response times and throughput of the system under varying loads. This skill is crucial for identifying bottlenecks and optimizing the performance of the application or system under test.

Error Handling and Debugging: Error Handling and Debugging assesses the candidate's ability to effectively detect, analyze, and resolve script errors and issues encountered during test execution. This skill is significant as it demonstrates the candidate's troubleshooting capabilities and resilience in handling unexpected situations during performance testing.

Test Execution and Result Analysis: Test Execution and Result Analysis evaluates the candidate's proficiency in executing load tests, analyzing test results, and generating comprehensive performance reports. This skill is important as it demonstrates the candidate's ability to interpret and communicate test findings, enabling effective decision-making and performance optimization.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

What experience level can I use this test for?

Each Adaface assessment is customized to your job description/ ideal candidate persona (our subject matter experts will pick the right questions for your assessment from our library of 10000+ questions). This assessment can be customized for any experience level.

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.
