To convert Fiddler traffic to a LoadRunner script, you can follow these general steps:
1. Capture Traffic in Fiddler: Launch Fiddler and start capturing the desired traffic by clicking the "Start Capture" button. Perform the actions you want to record, such as navigating through web pages or interacting with a web application.
2. Export Traffic Sessions: Once you have captured the necessary traffic, go to Fiddler's "File" menu and choose "Export Sessions > All Sessions" to save the captured traffic sessions to a file on your computer.
3. Convert Sessions to LoadRunner Script: Now, you need to convert the exported sessions into a LoadRunner script format. This process involves parsing the captured traffic and generating the corresponding script code. LoadRunner does not have a direct built-in feature for importing Fiddler sessions, so you'll need to use a third-party tool or script to perform the conversion.
One popular approach is to use a tool called "Fiddler2LR" developed by the LoadRunner community. It is an open-source tool that converts Fiddler sessions to LoadRunner scripts. You can find the tool and instructions on how to use it on GitHub or other community websites. Alternatively, you can write a custom script or use a programming language of your choice to parse the exported sessions and generate the LoadRunner script code manually. This approach requires more technical expertise and knowledge of LoadRunner's scripting language.
4. Adjust Script Logic: After the conversion, review the generated LoadRunner script code and make any necessary adjustments or enhancements. LoadRunner scripts often require modifications to handle dynamic values, correlations, think times, and other performance testing-related considerations.
5. Import and Enhance the Script in LoadRunner: Finally, import the generated LoadRunner script into the LoadRunner IDE or controller, where you can further enhance it by adding performance test scenarios, configuring load profiles, adjusting user profiles, and specifying other test parameters as needed.
Remember that the process of converting Fiddler traffic to a LoadRunner script may vary depending on the complexity of your application and the specific requirements of your performance test. It's crucial to have a good understanding of LoadRunner scripting and performance testing concepts to ensure an accurate and effective conversion.
