Documentation

Definition

This specifies whether, in the case of an automatic performance analysis, test cases are to be started automatically, and whether they should be started once or twice. If two test cases are started in direct succession, only the second run is evaluated for performance behavior.

Reason: It is highly probable that in the first test case run the buffers (database buffer and program buffer on the currently-used application server) are not yet filled. Significantly, the load times for the buffers may be included with the performance data, which, depending on the case, may not be wanted. Consequently, you can monitor a test case run in which you can assume that the buffers are filled.
