JavaScript is popular now.

This is one of a series on how LoadRunner has embraced JavaScript:

Create TruClient script with JavaScript.
Call JavaScript within a LoadRunner C-language script.
Scripting in JavaScript language (instead of C or Java).

Here are examples of each.

Create TruClient scripts with JavaScript

Download Zip of the UISamples TruClient script repository at:

https://github.com/TruClient/UISamples

There are several TruClient scripts there, each in a separate folder.

The HP example shows a website that can only be load tested using TruClient (not C programming).

I created a whole 2-day hands-on class explaning these.

It is a good example of string and number functions within JavaScript.

Call me to get up and running on TruClient quickly.
