Configuring HTTP tests

HTTP tests of an NQA test group are used to test the connection between the NQA client and an HTTP
server, and the time required to obtain data from the HTTP server. HTTP tests enable you to detect the
connectivity and performance of the HTTP server. The TCP port must be port 80 on the HTTP server for
NQA HTTP tests.
Before you start HTTP tests, configure the HTTP server.
To configure HTTP tests:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter NQA test group view.
3. Configure the test type as
HTTP, and enter test type view.
4. Configure the IP address of
the HTTP server as the
destination address of HTTP
request packets.
5. Configure the source IP
address of request packets.
6. Configure the operation type.
7. Configure the website that an
HTTP test visits.
8. Configure the HTTP version
used in HTTP tests.
9. Configure optional
parameters.
