How does LoadRunner recognize that data has been returned?

Question

If I e.g. record an action that is querying database and the result is returned after 1 minute, how does Loadrunner recognize this? Because it appears in the communication between client and server? Thanks

Answer 1

Loardrunner makes a HTTP request in a thread, and then that thread waits for it to return until the timeout period. When the request returns with a response, LoadRunner parses it and based on your code, can extract any information from it. It can also easily measure the time it waited to get the response.
