Converting loadrunner script to Neoload (using Fiddler maybe?)


Pretty much exactly what it says on the tin: I have a Loadrunner script and I would like to convert it to a Neoload one. There's no way to do this automatically, obviously, but my idea was to capture traffic created by a loadrunner playthrough and then somehow reroute it (or export it?) to Neoload, and then do the manual extraction/whatever later.

The answer given here gives some tantalizing hints on how to do it, but the problem is that I can't figure out how to get Neoload to accept anything other than manual recording (the answer is given for Webtest because Fiddler can export a Webtest file, but there's no such option for Neoload). Is there a viable way to make this approach work, or is there a different option I could explore?


Solution

  • NeoLoad records the HTTP traffic through a Proxy (default recording method). All you need to do is:

    1. Tell LoadRunner to play the script through a Proxy: NeoLoad machine, port 8090 (default NeoLoad recording port)
    2. Launch a NeoLoad recording (you can uncheck "Launch Browser")
    3. Launch the LoadRunner playback of 1 VU
    4. Stop NeoLoad recording

    I hope this helps,
