what is the purpose of start and end timers in robot scripts?..

Answer / pavan kishore. m.m.v

Start and Stop timers in Robot script gives us the actual
time of the script execution.

Example: If we place a Start Timer at the begining of the
script and a Stop timer at the end of the script and then
Execute the script(playback), the Result gets displayed in
the Test Manager with the Actual time of script playback.

along with Hours/Mini/ and Seconds also.

what is the purpose of start and end timers in robot scripts?..

Answer / vijay soni

Start and Stop timers are used/inserted in the script to identify the time consumed to execute an event or set of events.
Eg : if there is a virtual user logged in to web site and he is updating database then if we insert start and stop command in script between request submitted by user and response received by user than while playback of script tester can evaluate and report "response time to execute update query command".

Hope this helps.
