New Test Scenario Wizard
Playback Proxy Settings
On Playback Proxy Settings page of Global Settings Wizard, you can
set proxy settings that will be used during playback of test scenario (test run).
By default, WAPT connects to tested server by using the direct connection
(without using the proxy server). Mark Use proxy
server while performing the test checkbox if it is necessary to use the proxy
server during test runs. Defined proxy settings are used only
while WAPT is performing a test run (playback a test scenario). For recording,
WAPT uses actual proxy settings specified for Microsoft® Internet Explorer.
Use
Internet Explorer proxy settings: If you click this button, then current
Internet Explorer proxy settings will be used for test runs. When you
run a new test (click the Run Test button
on the toolbar), current proxy settings of Internet Explorer are defined
and a new test runs with these settings. Use custom proxy settings: If you click this button,
you should define the certain proxy configuration for test runs.
Type:
select proxy server type (HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5).
Server: enter proxy server name.
Port: enter proxy server port number.
Advanced..:
define advanced proxy settings:
Use authentication: Mark this checkbox if proxy server requires
authentication. Enter username and password for proxy authentication.
WAPT will automatically define the type of
authentication (basic authentication or Integrated Windows Authentication (NTLM)).
Bypass proxy server for local addresses: Mark this checkbox to bypass proxy server for local addresses during
test runs. Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with: Enter addresses for which proxy server should be bypassed during
test runs. Addresses should be separated by semicolons.
Note that testing through the proxy server could lead to distortion
of test results. We recommend using proxy only in case it is really
necessary, for example, if tested server is outside the firewall and there is no
direct channel to tested server, or if you wish to test the proxy server.
