国外LoadRunner高手推荐的学习资料
We all know that LR is a difficult tool to master - a common refrain is that there is not enough material out there. nothing can be farther from the truth. I have compiled the following to help people willing to learn more on LR to find everything in one place
----------------------------------------------------------------------
First start with your documentation on your PC.
Copy paste the file locations in your browser

Thats 3580 Pages of information on LR - How many pages have you gone through? (I probably did less than 1500)
The above can also be found in Compiled Help Files. A couple like the Automation and Function reference are not found in the PDFs above, so it makes sense to list out the locations of these.
CHM Files
Everything from the above PDF listing
C:\Program Files\HP\LoadRunner\bin\online.chm
Function Reference
C:\Program Files\HP\LoadRunner\bin\FuncRef.chm
C Language function ref
C:\Program Files\HP\LoadRunner\bin\c_language_FuncRef.chm
Automation Reference (dont even go there)

Well thats with the Documentation on your PC.
