- Recording Logs: VuGen generates these logs at the time of recording the test script.
- Code Generation Logs: VuGen parses the Recording Logs and prepares Generation Logs which are in a human-readable format.
- Compilation Logs:
- Replay Logs:
- Execution Logs:
What is log in LoadRunner?
In LoadRunner, logs are the automatically generated and time-stamped data of events related to transactions, errors, parameter value, Vuser requests and response sent by the server. The log settings are available in ‘Runtime settings’ of VuGen and Controller. The logs are very useful: For debugging the script.

What is the difference between standard log and extended log in LoadRunner?
26 What is the difference between Standard Log and Extended Log? Ans: Standard log creates a log of functions and messages sent to the server during script execution whereas Extended log contains additional warnings and other messages.
What is the difference between Lr_error_message and Lr_debug _message?
lr_error_message occurs when there is an error in the code of the application. On the other hand lr_debug _message occurs when there is a flaw in the functionality of the program.
What is difference between thread and process in LoadRunner?
By Definition: A program (i.e. LoadRunner script) is referred to as a process while a thread is a subset of the process, also referred to as a lightweight process.
How do I compare two scripts in LoadRunner?
How to compare two identical flow scripts in LoadRunner to find out dynamic values?
- Record a script and save it (say primary_script).
- Record the same flow in another script and save it (say secondary_script).
- Select Tools -> Compare -> either “Select Folder to Compare” or “Compare to External Folder”.
How do I check my runtime data on LoadRunner?
Another way to open the Runtime Settings option is VuGen menu bar. Go to ‘Replay’ tab and get the ‘Runtime Settings’ option in the list.
What is the use of lr_output_message?
The lr_output_message function sends a message with the script section and line number to output windows, log files, and other test report summaries.
What are LR functions?
LoadRunner (LR) Functions. These functions are the general LoadRunner functions that are common for all protocols: 1) lr_eval_string(): As already seen, this function returns the input string after evaluating any embedded parameters.
What is Web_reg_save_param_ex in LoadRunner?
‘web_reg_save_param’ function is used for web protocol (denoted by “web”). This function registers a request to find out the dynamic value based on the boundaries (denoted by “reg”). After registering the request, the next task is to save the dynamic value in a parameter (represented by “save_param” words).
What is difference between web_reg_save_param and web_reg_save_param_ex?
‘web_reg_save_param_ex’ has wildcard option with ‘Content Type’ and ‘Request URL’ in the ‘Filters’ section whereas ‘web_reg_save_param’ has wildcard character or digit option in LB and RB attributes.
Why correlation is used in LoadRunner?
Correlation is done for the dynamic value or the value returned by server for any request. Parameterization differs from correlation in a way that former takes care of user input data whereas later takes care of data returned by server. Manual correlation and automated correlation follow the same steps.
How many types of graphs are in LR?
Based on LoadRunner Ver 8.0 there are 6 kinds of graphs available. You can get Line Graph, Point Graph, Bar Graph, Pie Graph, Area Graph and Line Graph(No points).
What is runtime settings in LoadRunner?
Runtime settings define the way in which a VuGen script runs and logs/reports. Runtime settings can be defined in a VuGen script or in the Controller while running the test (Runtime settings in the Controller overrides the one set in the script).
What are the different types of log levels in LoadRunner?
There are 2 types of log level available in LoadRunner. You can choose either of them as per your requirement. a. Standard Log: The standard log sends a subset of functions and messages sent during script execution to a log. b. Extended Log:
Where are the LoadRunner test logs stored?
These logs are generated at the time of test execution and available in the temp folder of the Load Generator machine. The controller collects these logs from LGs to prepare the result. The chapter of LoadRunner log is incomplete without discussing the log settings.
How to improve the performance of the LoadRunner?
LoadRunner records only faulty events in the log file which is helpful in the bottleneck identification during result analysis. This option creates a smaller log file than the first option i.e. Always. Another part of this setting is controlling the log cache. You can specify the log cache size to improve the performance of the LoadRunner.
How to enable or disable LoadRunner logs?
Under the General category of LoadRunner runtime settings, the 3rd tab named ‘Log’ helps to enable or disable the LoadRunner log. LoadRunner has an option to capture the logs at different levels like simple as well as advanced trace log.
