Q. 37 What is a correlation?

Ans: Correlation is used to handle the dynamic values in a script coming from the server. The dynamic value could change for each user action (value changes when action is replayed by the same user) or for different users (value changes when action is replayed with a different user). In both, the cases correlation takes care of these values and prevents them from failing during execution.

Q. 38 What are the types of Correlation?

Ans: Correlation is of two types:

  • Manual Correlation
  • Automatic Correlation

Q. 39 Explain the difference between automatic correlation and manual correlation?

Ans: Manual Correlation involves manual intervention in identifying the dynamic value, finding the first occurrence of dynamic value, identifying the unique boundaries of capturing the dynamic value, writing correlation function web_reg_save_param before the request having the first occurrence of a dynamic value in its response.

Automated correlation works on predefined correlation rules. The script is played back and scanned for autocorrelation on failing. Vugen identifies the place wherever the correlation rules work and correlate the value on approval.
