Send Email from Script

[Ltester]

I am trying to know if sending an email from loadrunner script is
possible, so lets say we have 4 transactions
i want to get an email after the user finishes the 2nd transaction, is
that possible? if yes, it would be great if you can mention how to go
about adding this

Add Winsock to your script type and then use the SMTP standard to generate a
message and send it through a local SMTP relay. Or, build a DLL which can
send an SMTP message for you, then lr_load_dll() with the exposed function,
call this function from your LoadRunner virtual users. On the latter
option you will need to make sure your DLL code is thread safe

does he really need winsock.

Just put a system command which wud trigger a command line email which would use a SMTP tool like the one below.

It is possible. You will just have to code it. Depends on the protocol as to the code itself

When in doubt I always run to the standards, or in this case the RFCs for SMTP.   If a command line version exists which can be exercised via a system() call, then all the better!

I had written a sample code to send emails using Loadrunner and blat
in the following link.

I've written an article about this on my site....
I managed to get the code down to three lines in a LoadRunner script
using BLAT.....

http://www.bish.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=107:using-loadrunner-to-send-an-email&catid=34:recent&Itemid=1

Sample code -
char cCommand[1024]; // char variable to hold the contents of DOS
commands
sprintf(cCommand, "c:\\blat\\blat.exe c:\\blat\\Test.txt -subject
\"Test Complete\" -to na...@mail.com -server mailserver.domain.com -f
user...@mailserver.domain.com -iu username -ipw password");
system(cCommand);


Good luck
Richard

I've used BLAT in the past and I wrote a quick article on my site
explaining how to do this using a LoadRunner system command.
I tested it this morning and I've uploaded the BLAT code and a sample
script.

http://www.bish.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=107:using-loadrunner-to-send-an-email&catid=34:recent&Itemid=1

Because BLAT sends an email based on the contents of the file, you
could use another script to write the contents of the file for you as
well.

These three lines are all you need in your LoadRunner script......

char cCommand[1024]; // char variable to hold the contents of DOS
commands
sprintf(cCommand, "c:\\blat\\blat.exe c:\\blat\\Test.txt -subject
\"Test Complete\" -to na...@mail.com -server mailserver.domain.com -f
user...@mailserver.domain.com -iu username -ipw password");
system(cCommand);


Good luck
Richard
