Overview

When you run a schedule, IBM® Rational® Performance Tester automatically sets up a typical launch configuration. A test runs on the local computer with one user. A schedule runs with the user groups and the locations that you have chosen. However, the execution results have a default name (the same as the schedule or test, with a suffix), and are stored in a default location. You can also run a configured schedule.

Tool Steps

To run a schedule, perform the following steps:

1. In the Test Navigator, select the given schedule
2. Right-click the schedule, and then click Run > Run Performance Schedule

To run a configured schedule, perform the following steps:

1. In the Test Navigator, expand the project until you locate the schedule
2. Right-click the schedule, and then click Run > Run
3. In the Configurations pane on the left, click Performance Test Schedule and then click the name of the configured schedule you wish to run
4. Click Run
