This intermediate course helps you make the most of BlazeMeter's test data integration and asset sharing. This course assumes you understand the basics of Data Entities, Data Parameters, and test parameterization that were introduced in the BlazeMeter Test Data Fundamentals course.

The BlazeMeter test data integration shown in this course is supported in Functional testing, Performance testing, API Monitoring, and Service Virtualization.

In this course, you will learn:

•    How a team shares and edits test data in a workspace.

•    How to run a test with different data variants without disrupting others.

•    How to extend a CSV file horizontally and vertically.

This intermediate course helps you make the most of BlazeMeter's assistive test data generation tool, Test Data Pro. You will learn how BlazeMeter can automatically identify hard-coded data in your scripts and generate more test data of the same type. BlazeMeter can also generate chaotic and negative test data for Data Parameters that covers well-known but easily missed corner cases. And thirdly, you will learn how to control the probabilistic distribution of randomly generated values.

Most of the Test Data Pro features shown are algorithmic or use built-in seed lists. Enterprise account members can enable additional data generators that are driven by artificial intelligence (AI).

This course assumes you understand the basics of testing in BlazeMeter, Data Entities, Data Parameters, and test parameterization that were introduced in the Test Data Fundamentals course.

The unavailability of back-end services is a common blocker for early testing. Virtual Services help you ensure the quality of your web app even if underlying services are not yet available – and with BlazeMeter, they can even be data driven. Either create stand-alone virtual services that respond to requests with your custom data or use data-driven virtual services as backend for Performance or GUI Functional tests.

This intermediate course shows API testers how to increase the coverage of automated API Monitoring by using dynamic test data variables instead of hard-coded values in test scripts. This course assumes that you are familiar with BlazeMeter API Monitoring and with BlazeMeter's test parameterization procedures that were introduced in the BlazeMeter Test Data Fundamentals course.

In this course, you will learn:

•    What the benefits of test parameterization are for API Monitoring.

•    How to parameterize an API Monitoring test.

•    How to load test data from CSV files.

•    How to generate test data synthetically.

The BlazeMeter Continuous Testing Platform is a unified, end-to-end, next-generation software test automation platform built for the Agile and DevOps era. The BlazeMeter Continous Testing Platform harnesses the power of cloud and open source to deliver an easy-to-use, developer-friendly, intelligent, shift-left test automation solution.

The online BlazeMeter 101 course is a compact eLearning program that aims to provide learners with a foundational understanding of continuous testing, the BlazeMeter platform, its core features, and the different modules it offers. BlazeMeter 101 is designed to empower testers and developers to be successful and ensure shift-left quality. The course is delivered concisely and engagingly to ensure maximum retention of key concepts within the given time frame. 

This course is designed to familiarize you with the following:

•    Fundamentals of BlazeMeter and its role in continuous testing.

•    Key features and capabilities of BlazeMeter.

•    Creating and setting up a BlazeMeter account.

•    Account customization options and settings.

•    Creating a basic performance test using BlazeMeter.

•    Understanding the different test configurations and parameters.

•    Interpreting test results and understanding key performance metrics.

•    Integrating with Continuous Integration (CI) tools.

•    Best practices for creating efficient and effective performance tests.

•    Leveraging BlazeMeter and Perfecto capabilities together.

By the end of the BlazeMeter 101 course, participants should have a solid understanding of BlazeMeter's capabilities and be able to create and execute basic performance tests.

Let's get started!

This course is for Perfecto testers who want to amend their static mobile tests with dynamic test data. For this integration, you need a Perfecto license and a (free or enterprise-level) BlazeMeter.com account. 

BlazeMeter Private Locations let you deploy BlazeMeter’s testing functionalities on your own infrastructure. Whether you’re looking for Performance Testing or Functional Testing, Virtual Services or the Proxy Recorder, in this course we walk you through the installation, configuration, and management of BlazeMeter Private Locations to get you testing those hard-to-reach applications that live behind the firewall. This course focuses on the Docker deployment option (with an advanced section introducing the Kubernetes deployment option), previous Docker knowledge will help but is not required to be successful in this course.

In this course, we will:

•  Create BlazeMeter Private Locations and deploy Private Locations

•  Explain the different deployment methods for Private Locations

•  Configure Private Locations for different functionalities

•  Debug common Private Location issues

Citrix helps organizations' employees to stay connected to their apps, no matter where they are, with no reliance on any infrastructure on the client side. For those organizations, there's a natural need for testing the performance of their Citrix apps for continuous feedback and improvement. But testing for Citrix-published apps would require an expansive solution that’s often limited to only specific versions of Citrix client/server. This makes testing complicated and increases heavy test cycles - until now. 

BlazeMeter has helped address the pain for performance testing for Citrix apps with the release of an open-source based Citrix JMeter Plugin. Learn to record & launch a Citrix app test right from your JMeter environment!

Looking for an easy way to test your Mainframe Application? This course covers the RTE Plugin to JMeter and will help you achieve your goal of creating and running functional and performance tests for your mainframe application.

The RTE Plugin supports TN3270, TN5250, and VT420 protocols.
