If caching is used then the response time of the requested URL will vary and the results are going to be incorrect as due to caching the requested page is returned by the server from the servers cache.

Caching can have negative impacts on performance as well if it is not optimally configured. If the focus of your test is the front end, you should test it with caching on and off to see the impact.

Why it is recommended to add verification checks to your all your scenarios?

Ayushi

• Aug 8th, 2017

When a page is being requested from server, its not only important to know the time required for the page to download but also to make sure that CORRECT PAGE is being downloaded from server. Verification points in your scripts help you do that.

Its very necessary to keep verification checks why because we need to know the web page is successfully loaded or not in case of web applications we are using.

I think, It will work fine. Because in loadrunner simulate new browser. Whenever replay the script it will open new browser even not installed browser in your local machine.
Any have suggestion pls share us.

Thanks,

What I think is, you will be able to run the script successfully even though there is no browser installed in the machine. Browser emulation contains basic elements of the browser only, the results need not to be as good the other one. Please share if you have different opinion.
