Service Level Agreement Profiles

The SLA Profiles page lets you configure, in one place, the Service Level Agreement of the application tested.

• Create several SLA profiles, for instance to deal with transactions that have very different expected response times.
• Apply several criteria inside a single SLA profile, for instance when you need to control response times and error rate.

Tip

To apply an SLA profile, you can drop an SLA action under a HTTP Request or Container in the Virtual User tree.

SLA profiles list

The SLA Profile page uses a layout with the list on the left and edition and usages on the right. The list features all the usual possibilities as described in the dedicated section about lists.

SLA Usage

The Usage tree is a visualization of the selected SLA profile. By clicking on a virtual User, you can navigate to it.
