Manual Scenario: You have to control the vusers and execution of scenario. Here we have to define


How many Vusers to run for each script?

How much Duration it has to run?

How the vusers needs to ramp Up?

How the Vusers needs to ramp down?

Goal Oriented: we define the Goal for the test. Then LR will take care of execution part. 5 types of Goal can be defined:

1. Number of Concurrent Vusers

2.Number of Hits per sec

3.Number of Transaction per sec

4.Number of Pages per Min.

5.Transaction Response Time that you would like scenario to reach.

As the name itself indicates, in manual scenario the scenario is designed manually. That means, we manually instruct the lr how many users to run and for how much duration and in what way the vusers have to be started and ended. Based on the scenario the script results will be provided by lr, like response time, hits per sec, no of vusers running etc.But in goal oriented scenario we have to specify the target, and minimum and maximum no of vusers and duration. When the script is run load will be started from min no vusers to max no of vusers and checks weather the goal or target can be reached or not. If the target camou be reached, it will stop running the script. The targets we can mention are like, response time, no of vusers, transactions per sec, throughput etc.

Manual Scenario: While we are selecting manual scenario, we need to set all the goal like Ramp up, Ramp Down and Duration. To design workload model on real word scenario. to better to prepare manual scenario to analyse actual behavior of application.

Goal Oriented Scenario:
Here we need not set any goals. The tool automatically sets it. We need to set only duration & threshold value only.
