blackbox exporter http probe duration

[Phang Mulianto]

Hi all,

i us blackbox exporter to probe a website loading time.

I graph it using grafana, for the probe_duration_seconds .    As i want to get all the time need to load the web, i do sum(probe_duration_seconds) in grafana and its all good.

Problem is , i compare to other probe which using selenium, the time is different. 
Let say blackbox_http check is 3s, in the selenium total loading check are 30s.

Is there difference on how blackbox_http processing the web loading, and all the DOM loading? 

As i check in selenium, total load is same with loading time in browser with cache turn off on the browser.

Note. I Also know there is webdriver_exporter but havent test it. just want to confirm if the metric calculation is different.

thanks

The blackbox exporter only does HTTP, if you want to simulate a full browser look at something like the webdriver_exporter.
