Automated Web Performance Testing Before 5pm

on YouTube ↗26m

" summary

Gives five concrete ways to add automated performance measurements to Selenium tests: simple start/end timers, the browser navigationTiming API (Chrome, IE9), browser plugins that export HAR (Firebug + NetExport or WebPageTest), proxy capture and manipulation with BrowserMob Proxy (Java) or FiddlerCore (Windows/.NET), and raw packet capture converted to HAR (tcpdump/winpcap + pcap2har). Shows code to export HARs, examples of blacklisting/rewriting, bandwidth throttling, per‑resource timings, and notes platform limits (BrowserMob best for Java, Fiddler Windows only, Selenium capture lacks IE).
