> Timing an FTP Download

  In order to accurately measure FTP download times using eValid,
  follow the simple steps outlined below in order to produce the
  correct and accurate timing results desired.

  (1) Navigate to the site where the file you wish to download is
      located.

  (2) Click on the hyperlink that initiates the download process.

  (3) Prior to the beginning of the download a Modal Dialog will
      prompt the user to "Open" or "Save" the file.  Choose "Open".
      (Choosing to save it as a file will require a more complex
      user intervention during playback.)  Use the ModalDialog
      commands in the eValid script dialog box (eValid: View >
      Script Window) to add the Modal Dialog commands according to
      the result desired.

  (4) Once the file has been downloaded completely and opened,
      toggle the Desktop recording feature of eValid to be able to
      record the opened application.

  (5) Make sure the playback will wait for the process to complete
      by synchronizing a portion of the newly opened application
      window using the available xySyncRect command to validate the
      checksum on the selected area (eValid: Record Mode > Validate
      > & Synchronize > Screen Window).

  (6) Close the Application and stop the recording.

  (7) Edit the newly created script by inserting the ResetTimer
      command after the FollowLink command which initializes the
      download process.  Add the Elapsed time command at the end of
      the script.

  (8) On playback, the elapsed time it took to download, open and
      close the application will be reflected in the proper logs.
