Difference b/n Loadrunner and Performance center?..

Answer / ravichandra

What ever mohansundar said above is exaclty correct.
I will few more points to the above to make more clear.

Diff1:
Performance center(PC) is web based application which can be accessed any one from any where in the globe by simplay entering URL and credentials.

where as controller is native application which needs to be installed on your local machine.

Diff2:
PC is enterprise application.
where enterprises have multiple applications located in different places we can monitor all applications from single place and maintain centrally located database where anyone from any where can access and make updates

Since controller is a native application only one can access and make updates

Diff3:
PC can effectively use by booking time slots(reduce costs) which is not possible in controller,Every one has to buy license from HP.
Installing LoadRunner on 'x' performance testers PC's will be a lot more expensive than sharing it as a resource between them through Performance Center.



Diff4:
The HP Performance Center software can be centrally administrated.
Which is not possible in controller

Hi, I'm trying to measure page load times in a web app. How do I verify that the page I go to next is fully loaded? Do I use content verification (web_reg_find)? I am measure the time it takes for a page to load and then the user goes to another page and another and so on. I need to know how long it took for page one. How long it took for page two and so one. I'm using transactions for each page, but I want to make SURE that the page is fully resolved/loaded before the scenario goes to the next page. So, does LoadRunner automatically do this or do I have to use content verification or do I do it in some other way? Thanks, Brian
