How to record mobile applications in LoadRunner 11 patch 3

LOADRUNNER MOBILE PROTOCOL:

With the new Mobile App (HTTP/HTML) protocol added to LoadRunner 11 in Patch 3, there are three recording options in the recording Wizard:

1.Record and Analyze Traffic - Use mobile sniffer agent to capture traffic and then analyze.

2.Analyze Traffic - Analyze traffic using existing capture file to generate script.

3.Record Emulator - Record script using a mobile device emulator.

Option 1 allows Vugen to connect to the mobile agent on the server or localhost and carry out the business process for recording.More information is available in the online help in: Mobile Protocols > Mobile App (HTTP/HTML) > How to create a script by Recording and Analyzing Traffic. 

Option 2 allows Vugen to scan a pre-captured network traffic (WinPcap) file and generate the code based on the traffic.More information is available in the online help in Mobile Protocols > Mobile App (HTTP/HTML) > How to create a script by Analzying Traffic and in Mobile Protocols > Mobile App (HTTP/HTML) > How to create a script by Analzying Traffic

Option 3 allows Vugen to record an emulator installed on the Vugen machine. With this option, you need to verify that you are able to bring up the emulator and navigate to a URL outside of Vugen to make sure the emulator settings are correct.

NOTE: The Mobile TruClient protocol is recommended for browser-based mobile applications -- Mobile TruClient protocol launches Firefox to record the business process.
