In TruClient, the Rendezvous point is a synchronization point that allows you to control the flow of the script and make it wait for a specific event or condition before proceeding further. Rendezvous points are helpful when you want to simulate multiple users or when you need to ensure that a specific action occurs at the same time for all virtual users.
To insert a Rendezvous point in a TruClient script, follow these steps:
1. Open the TruClient script in TruClient IDE (VuGen).
2. Identify the step where you want to insert the Rendezvous point. Typically, you place the Rendezvous point before a critical action or during a specific synchronization point.
3. In the TruClient Sidebar, click on the "Step" menu to display the list of available step types.
4. Look for the "Rendezvous" step type, and click on it to add it to your script.
5. After adding the Rendezvous step, a dialog box will appear. You can set a name for the Rendezvous point to help identify it in the script.
6. Configure the synchronization settings for the Rendezvous point. You can choose between "Wait for other Vusers" or "Wait for specific timer." If you select "Wait for other Vusers," it will wait until all virtual users reach the Rendezvous point before continuing. If you choose "Wait for specific timer," you can set a timer to wait for a specific duration before proceeding.
7. Save your script.
That's it! The Rendezvous point is now inserted into your TruClient script. When running multiple virtual users, they will all pause at the Rendezvous point until the conditions you've set are met, ensuring they proceed together.
