ABSTRACT:
A remote terminal emulator (RTE) is provided in which substantially all of the time elapsing during an emulated use of a computer system under test is categorized and reported. The time required by the computer system under test to respond to command signals transmitted by the RTE is recorded as a receive time and is measured from completion of the transmission of the command signals to recognition of a pattern specified by the RTE as signifying completion of the response by the computer system under test. As a result, the receive time recorded reflects the time required by the computer system under test to (a) process and carry out the command transmitted by the RTE and (b) transmit response data back to the RTE. The RTE accurately measures and reports the measured user think time to provide important information regard the authenticity of the emulated use, when compared to actual user think times measured during actual use of the computer system under test by actual users, and the relative importance of the processing capacity of the computer system under test. The time during which the RTE processes information, causing emulation of use of the computer system under test to be suspended, is accurately measured as application processing time and is reported to the user of the RTE. Substantially all of the time elapsing during the emulated use of the computer system under test is reported to the user of the RTE to provide the user of the RTE more complete and revealing information regarding the performance of the computer system under test.
