What is running Vuser scripts in Stand-Alone Mode in load runner

Running Vuser Scripts in Stand-Alone Mode:

In order to perform load testing with a Vuser script, you need to incorporate the script into a LoadRunner scenario. Before integrating the script into a scenario, you should check its functionality by running the script in stand-alone mode.
Stand-alone mode:
Running a script in stand-alone mode means running the script without using a LoadRunner Controller. This is done to establish how the script will execute when run from the Controller. If the script is Windows-based, you use VuGen to run it in stand-alone mode. If the script is UNIX-based, you must run it from a UNIX command line.

If the stand-alone execution is successful, then incorporate the script into a scenario.
