Setting the Timing of a Test Clip

Before inserting clip elements into a test clip, the timing type can be set from the lower panel of the SOASTA CloudTest Test Clip Editor. Click on “Properties” in the lower panel. Click on “Clip Properties” in the “Property Type” panel.  You will then be able to change the test clip timing type from the drop down menu.  Options are “Sequenced”, “Manually timed”, and “Evenly timed”.

  • Sequenced – Each clip element is executed immediately after the preceding clip element is finished.
  • Manually timed – Each clip element is executed at the time specified in the SOASTA CloudTest Clip Editor.
  • Evenly timed – Each clip element is executed with the same interval between them.  Stretching/shrinking the test clip in the test composition will affect the interval.

For an existing test clip, the timing can be changed using the “Change Timing Type” button in the upper right corner of the SOASTA CloudTest Clip Editor.
