Web performance Test - Password is not recorded

Question

Hi All,

I'm recording some actions on a web site using web performance test (VSTS 2010). After recording the actions, i found that, password is recorded as blank.

Please see the screen capture below -

If i playback the script same username/password then the script is working fine. However, if i run the test with different username/password then errors are displaying  .

Could anyone please let me know how to solve this?

Answer 1

Has the password being cached, so, if you run it next time it picks up the password by default? Try clearing the cache or running the test on another machine. Normally the password would get captured in the recording by the web performance test recorder. 

Also, can you validate that if you were to log in to the application with the usernames, passwords that you have in the csv manually the combinations work.

Answer 2

vcLogin={{DataSource1.TR-UserAccounts#csv.Username}}


vsPassword={{DataSource1.TR-UserAccounts#csv.Password}} should be sufficient to get the authentication rolling if the username passwords in the csv are correct.
