> Ramping Up a LoadTest Scenario

  eValid has a built-in "Delay" command which has a variety of uses
  during script playback.  For example, this command can be inserted
  into a script to create a ramp-up type LoadTest scenario.

  To create a LoadTest which ramps-up the load on the target machine
  by 2 virtual users every 1 minute you merely insert Delay commands
  in the LoadTest script, as shown in this example.

    # eValid script to demonstrate load ramp-up...

    ProjectID "Project"
    GroupID "Group"
    TestID "Load_Ramp"
    LogID "DEFAULT"

    # Start with two users...
    _eValid "Test.1.evs" "Test.1" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"
    _eValid "Test.2.evs" "Test.2" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"

    # Add in two more user...
    Delay 60000
    _eValid "Test.3.evs" "Test.3" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"
    _eValid "Test.4.evs" "Test.4" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"

    # Add in two more user...
    Delay 60000
    _eValid "Test.5.evs" "Test.5" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"
    _eValid "Test.6.evs" "Test.6" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"

    # Add in two more user...
    Delay 60000
    _eValid "Test.7.evs" "Test.7" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"
    _eValid "Test.8.evs" "Test.8" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"

    # Add in two more user...
    Delay 60000
    _eValid "Test.9.evs" "Test.9" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"
    _eValid "Test.10.evs" "Test.10" "10" "" "-pm 1.0"

    # End of Script

  On playback, this LoadTest script will initially open 2 browser
  instances of eValid and gradually ramp up the playback every 60000
  msec (60 seconds, 1 minute) in increments of 2 browser sessions
  each.
