To disable secondary HTTP requests, see Disabling and enabling secondary HTTP requests.
To disable an element in a schedule or test for any protocol, do the following:
Disabled element | Result |
---|---|
User group (percentage) | The percentages in the remaining user groups are recalculated. When you enable the user group again, remember to return all of the affected user groups to their original percentage. |
User group (absolute) | The number of users in the remaining groups might not match the total number of users specified in the schedule. If so, new virtual users are redistributed among the remaining user groups so that the numbers will match. When you enable the user group again, remember to return all of the affected user groups to their original totals. |
Request that contains a data correlation reference | Substitution in the remaining actions that depend on this request does not work. |
Request that contains a data correlation substituter | Substitution does not occur because the entire action is omitted. The substituter that uses the disabled data source is also disabled. To re-enable the substituter, select an enabled data source for substitution. |
HTTP request that contains a server connection | No effect. The connection is automatically created in the next request. |
Portion of custom code | Custom code with disabled arguments is flagged. If the disabling causes an unexpected number of arguments passed to custom code elements, you receive an error at runtime. To fix this, modify the custom code to check the number of arguments. |
IF data_source construct | An IF construct is marked as invalid if it contains a disabled data source. |
Test element and child are disabled | If you disable a child element and then disable its parent
(for example, a request and then a page), the disabled child element
will have two prefixes: one created manually and one inherited. In
the following example, the first request has inherited the disabled
state. The second request has been manually disabled and has also
inherited the disabled state://disabled page //request ////disabled requestDo one of the following to re-enable the second request:

A data source or a range of text that will be replaced | In HTTP, the Data table displays this text in gray. |
