Viewing On App and Off App response time

When you initiate a test run from the test workbench, by default, the response time is collected and displayed in the Mobile and Web UI Report after the run. This report shows the overall response time for each test step. The response time is also displayed on the Step Performance tab of the statistical report. This report shows the average response time for each test step.

About this task

If you used the Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome browser to run the test, you can drill down further and see the response time taken at each step by the application (On App), and the server and network (Off App).

To view the On App and Off App data for all of the steps on a page, from the Step Performance page, click the > symbol after the Step Performance header and then click Step Response Time Contributions.

Procedure

Click Run Test in the test workbench.
In the Run Configuration wizard, select the Firefox or Chrome browser and click Run. When the test is completed, the statistical report displays graphs that represent the response time for each step in the test. By default, only the 10 highest response times are collected during playback. You can modify the filter by using the context menu on the legacy report and by going to the edit mode on the web report.
Click any response time graph and select Step Response Time Contributions. The report displays two bars, one to show the time spent by the step on the application (On App Time) and another to show the time spent on the network and server (Off App Time).
Note: The Step Response Time Contributions option is available only if you played back the test with the Firefox or Chrome browser.
