JBlitz Professional allows you to configure various preference settings in the preferences
dialog. These are available from the main menu Options->Preferences
(or hit Ctrl+P). Here you can specify
the following global settings:
'General' tab:
- Use slider animation. Clicking on the buttons in the right hand gutter show a slide effect.
- Show tip of the day at startup. As it says.
- Use dynamic highlighting. Highlights web page query strings by showing the name value pairs in alternating colors.
- Show web pages with their relative path. Includes the relative path to a
given web page when it is displayed in various places by JBlitz. If unticked
only page (the portion following the final forward slash) is displayed.
- Include the web page's query string. Shows the web page with any query
string within filters used in the Response Recorder, Error Inspector and Statistics
Manager.
- Auto run on startup. Automatically starts a run once JBlitz has been
launched. Useful if JBlitz is used in conjunction with a scheduling tool such
as 'cron' to begin testing automatically.
- Auto save test configuration and test results on shutdown. Saves any changes
to the test configuration and saves the current test results if required when
exiting the application. If unticked, a message box is displayed to prompt for
the files to be saved.
- When tests are scheduled, issue a warning message on shutdown. Shows
a reminder message if a test schedule is active and the application is exited.
This is just to remind you to re-launch JBlitz in time to start your schedule.
- Load the latest test results when loading a test configuration. Loads the
test results associated with that test configuration when it is loaded. If
unticked, no results are loaded and hence the current results will be blank.
- Auto reset test results before a run starts. Resets the test results every
time a run is begun. If unticked, the results accumulate over time.
- Prompt before a manual reset of test results. Displays a message box before
allowing test results data to be lost.
- Prompt before force loading test results when a conflict exists. Displays a
message box before loading test results when the current test configuration
differs from that used to record the results. This may happen, for instance,
if a test case is added subsequently to the results being recorded.
If unticked, JBlitz will always shoe-horn in the test results into the current
configuration even though a mismatch may occur.
'Recording and Logging' tab:
- Record the last 'n' requests made. The capacity for the response recorder -
a rolling log of records is maintained.
- Record the last 'n' errors encountered. The capacity for the error inspector
- a rolling log of records is maintained.
- Enable conversation logging. When new test configurations are created, this
setting is used to initialize the conversation logging flag as shown in the
'Logs' tab. Tick if you think new test configurations will normally require
conversation logging enabled.
- Enable message logging. When new test configurations are created, this
setting is used to initialize the message logging flag as shown in the 'Logs'
tab. Tick if you think new test configurations will normally require message
logging enabled.
- Message logging mode. The default mode for new test configurations. Memory
mode is fastest but usually requires JBlitz use more memory, file logging mode
is slower, but provides a persistent record of messages sent and received and
requires less memory.
- Enable HTTP debug trace. Switch on HTTP debug messages. Same as starting up
JBlitz with the -debug http command line argument.
- Enable custom module trace. Switch on customization API debug messages. Same
as starting up JBlitz with the -debug custom command line argument.
