What about redirections?

How does eValid handle those?

Thanks

Morning EdTrent, thanks for asking.

Redirection of a page from an original URL to a new "redirected" URL is done entirely inside the browser.

Remember, eValid is a "driver" of the browser.

Suppose you have two pages: "A" that has a redirect to "B".

If you tell eValid in your script to go to URL "A" and that contains a redirect then you will see that eventually (after everything's been loaded) that the browser describes the contents of "B".

The process time for this is charged to the command...that is, there's no attempt to account for any extra time involved in the redirection processing.

If you want to know the timing difference you will need to measure goint to "A" first (which then goes to "B") and THEN measure the times for going to "B" directly. Usually there is very little difference...a few milliseconds is often as long as it takes to process a redirect.
