Description:
Hello Community,
I am currently working on performance testing for a desktop-based application hosted on AWS AppStream 2.0. We are using LoadRunner 25.1 to record traffic, but we are facing several challenges.
Environment Details:
- Performance Testing Tool: LoadRunner 25.1
- Application Type: Desktop-based, hosted on AWS AppStream 2.0
- Access Method: Using Chrome browser to access AWS AppStream (also tried using the AppStream client application)
- Operating System: Windows
Challenges Faced:
- LoadRunner is unable to capture traffic properly when accessing the application via Chrome through AWS AppStream 2.0.
- Protocol identification is unclear—we are unsure of the best protocol(s) to use for recording in this setup.
- Encrypted traffic or session-based dependencies make correlation and parameterization difficult.
- No clear documentation or best practices for using LoadRunner with AWS AppStream 2.0.
Request for Assistance:
- Has anyone successfully recorded and replayed a desktop-based application running on AWS AppStream 2.0 using LoadRunner?
- What are the recommended protocols and configurations for this environment?
- Are there any workarounds or additional settings required to capture the traffic successfully?
- Is there any official documentation or guidance on this scenario?
Any insights, recommendations, or step-by-step guidance would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
