Abstract

This paper provides an extension or enhancement in HP LoadRunner tool, which is a software, automated testing tool used to carry out the intensive performance testing. The extension aims in designing the functions, which are used to reduce the data management time taken by the client or the user in different scripting methods like-parameterization, correlation, and validation checks. The proposed technique has been implemented in C. Proposed scheme reduces the human efforts in parameterizing the values and saves user time. The paper shows the brief comparison results between the proposed scheme and in the existing HP LoadRunner tool, which is available in the market. 

Keywords: Software testing, performance testing, HP LoadRunner, automation testing, C
