Think time

The script recorder registers the Think time events to simulate pauses between user actions in scripts. The Think time setting lets you override the recorded think times.

Note: This setting only has effect during test playback, the original think time values in the test are not changed.
Value Description
Recorded Use the same think time as defined in the script.

Fixed

Use a specific think time value for all events.
Random Use random think time from 100 to 60100 ms (1 min 100 ms).
Minimum Ignore the think time values specified in scripts and play back the test with the minimal possible think time (100 ms) between the events. Use this to speed up the script playback.
Note: This option might break the test if it requires a long pause at some point, for example, to wait for some dynamic content to load.
