Adding compound tests to schedule

This topic is applicable for IBM® Rational® Performance Tester version 8.5.1. To test the performance of multiple tests, you can add all the tests to a compound test and add the compound test to a user group. When you run a schedule, all the tests in the compound test are run in a sequential order.

About this task

A user group can be defined locally, which means the parameters to run the user group are defined in the schedule. A user group can be associated with a compound test, which means that the parameters to run that user group are defined in the compound test.

Procedure

To add a compound test:

  1. In the schedule editor, add a user group.
  2. Click the user group and in Behavior, click Use compound test.
  3. Select a compound test and click OK. If there are no compound tests in the project, click Create, specify a name for the compound test, and click Finish. If there are test variables associated with a compound test and also defined in the schedule, the variables with the compound test take precedence while running the user group.
  4. Save the test.
