Filters are enhancements made to a pre-recorded script, which allow the script to behave more like a real user. Filters enable the script to be more dynamic, where it can behave a certain way when certain conditions are met. Filters can add functions, thinktime, and change script behavior, etc. ‘Filter Groups’ are created to contain multiple filters that are unique to that group. For eg: A ‘TTO Production’ group, will have only filters that are unique to that type of user.
When uploading a script, you will be given the option to choose the filters and groups you want to process the script with. Selecting a group will select all the filters associated with that group will automatically be selected, you may choose to remove those not required.
