Hi,

We are evaluting ANTS Load to test our intranet web site. We can use the trial version to test the web site. We still have a question:

Do resource, such as JS or GIF, has get transftered each time regardless of how many times we received, like the browser does? Does the method Get() of the WebClient class catch data? Because this is critical to the method of measuring the time span that browser gets a aspx page.

Thanks,
Yao

    Hello Yao,

    ANTS Load's webclient doesn't do anything fancy such as caching. It simply sends a request for a document to the web server (GET or POST...), then it reads the server's response until the end and saves it in memory in the HttpResponse class. Upon the next request, the HttpResponse is cleared and repopulated with the next server response.

    The answer must be a yes, then. The entire page is read from the server each time a request is sent. Hopefully this answers your question.
