Load Testing Terms

What is 90 percentile ?

suppose the response times are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 & 10.

9 is the 90 percentile

What is Think time?

The time between the completion of one request and the start of the next request. 


What is PACE Time?

How fast the script submitting server requests?

Throughput= Total No of Transactions/Time in Seconds , Pacing= (Response_Time + Think_Time)
From Your Requirements- Total No of iterations 100 and 1 iteration have 6 transactions, So total no of transactions = 600
Throughput for 1 Minute is: 600/60 = 10 , Throughput for 1 Sec is: 0.16
According to formula 50 = 0.16*(Pacing) Pacing = 312.5 seconds
To achieve 100 Iterations in 1 Hour you have to set pacing 312.5 seconds, Make sure Pacing = Response_time + Think_Time.

What is Correlation  ?
Correlation is the capturing of dynamic values passed from the server to the client and back. We save this captured value into a LoadRunner parameter, and then use this parameter in the script in place of the original value.
