Prerequisites

SOASTA CloudTest scripts are written in JavaScript and a working knowledge of JavaScript programming is required to effectively use them.

JavaScript Support


SOASTA CloudTest uses the Mozilla’s "Rhino" embeddable JavaScript language. Since JavaScript is a general language many things not supported declaratively by SOASTA CloudTest are possible via Scripts. Via its scripting support, SOASTA CloudTest’s design also includes the ability to access the underlying message complexity both by the Message Editor and by extension using JavaScript objects. User created test scenarios can be further enhanced by the use of scripts. SOASTA CloudTest provides a simple scripting environment to use JavaScript to traverse and modify the SOASTA CloudTest Object
Model.

Scripts can be positioned within Test Clips just like messages and browser actions, and incorporated into Test Compositions one or many times. All test clips, including any Scripts they contain, are reusable.

For step-by-step instructions on how to add your script to a test clip and test composition, see Script.
