CaptainBeardsEyesBeard Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Hi I'd like to write some performance tests and would like timings for how long a webpage takes to load? What is the best way to do this? Is there a function that times how long the page takes to load? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danp2 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Are you wanting to run standard website performance tests or are you specifically targeting Webdriver to determine the overhead of using this technology? FWIW, there isn't anything in the Webdriver UDF for testing performance. Latest Webdriver UDF Release Webdriver Wiki FAQs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danp2 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 @mLipokIMO, that is way too simplistic to get accurate results, especially when dealing with websites that load contents in the background. What is considered "loaded"? Should that be based on the value of document.readyState or some other criteria?

CaptainBeardsEyesBeard Posted November 1, 2022 Author Share Posted November 1, 2022 I was hoping to usethe WD_WaitElement function would be able to attempt to time how long it takes to appear via a loop? _WD_WaitElement($sSession, $sStrategy, $sSelector, $iDelay = Default, $iTimeout = Default, $lVisible = Default, $lEnabled = Default) Would this be accurate?

Danp2 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I would do it like this -- Start your timer Perform navigation, link click, etc. Use _WD_LoadWait for detecting initial page load Use _WD_WaitElement to wait for specific element to appear Capture elapsed time Latest Webdriver UDF Release Webdriver Wiki FAQs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
