Allow Pages to Load Completely
Type the address of the web site that you want to test in the address box of this browser. Browse through the web pages just as a user would do, however do so at a slow pace, allowing each page to fully display. Rational Performance Tester automatically records your actions. It is important to wait for each page to load completely to help ensure better automatic page recognition. Any extra "waiting time" (Thinktime) will be removed during playback of the recorded session.
When you are finished recording, close the web browser. __PT_PRODUCT_SHORTNAME__ saves and displays the recorded performance test.
