WatiN and Dynotrace - How Do Connect the Two?
I don't have Dynotrace installed, but work needs me to inject my Watin tests with something called a dynaTrace Http Header.
Any help would be great, and in the meantime I'll use Google or Bing, and update this thread with anything I find.
Thanks,

Looks like there may not be a method to do what I need to do, so
we are going to pass on Dynatrace and just capture Fiddler Sessions.
Thanks
Hi,
We changed a while ago the parameter names. Could you try DT_AE_AGENTACTIVE, DT_AE_AGENTNAME and DT_AE_SERVER?

There might be a Firewall issue.
When I try to Join the AJAX Edition Community, the message Please make sure that your internet connection is working. Apppears.
I have to select the Continue Trial (5 days left).
I installed this on another box on a different network and didn't have this issue.
If I click Start Tracing and manual enter the url and then record a few steps it works just fine. It doesn't work if I open the url through the automated tool.

I've Added the following to my WatiN Script before the page opens:
Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("DT_IE_AGENT_ACTIVE", "true");
Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("DT_IE_SESSION_NAME", "WatiR Datapipe Prod");
When I open dynaTrace AJAX Edition it displays the Next Steps page. If I click Start Tracing (Internet Explorer), it wants me enter browser information, then click Run (which opens the browser).
I want the WatiN Code to Opent the browser. Is that possible?
I've tried leaving the AJAX Edition open then run the Automation, but I'm still not capturing anything. Any Ideas of what I might be doing wrong?
Does using the AJAX Edition by itself work? You may have permissions errors which prevent you from changing those environment variables.
Thanks for the response, but I'm unable to identify how I inject my WatiN test with the necessary Dyna Trace Http Header. The instruction seem to be for Commericial tools and relate more to load testing than to functional testing.
I'll keep look.
Thanks,
Darin
Hi
Check out the documentation on Load-Testing Integration: Integration with Web Load Testing and Monitoring Tools
The integration requires you to add an additional HTTP Header on your simulated requests. The HTTP Header has the name "dynaTrace" or "x-dynaTrace" (both work). The value of that header allows you to specify things like Script Name, Test Name or Step Name. These names will then be picked up by dynaTrace so that it is easier to do data analysis later on.
