This chapter explained the advanced features of web testing, generating code out of a recorded web test and customizing it based on requirements. The code can be generated in .NET programming languages such as C# and Visual Basic. Custom rules are the extension of built-in extraction and validation rules that come along with web testing. Generating code out of recorded web testing gives more control to the tester to customize. Other features such as looping, calling custom written methods between the requests, adding transactions for requests, and adding additional data sources can be included wherever they are required. Creating a separate class library for the custom rules and making use of that in the web test is very beneficial for customization and re-use.

The next chapter explains how to test an application for load and performance. The load test uses the same recorded user actions, but different loads are configured during testing and performance data is collected for analysis and reporting.
