Rendering time of the web page

Post by njain213 »

Hi Team,

Could you please confirm if the web page rendering time is captured as part of the total response time given by the Nagios?
Actually, we have a scenario where we have to capture the total time of a user journey, including the time taken to render the page after the response from the server.

Any document/info that help in understanding this would be a great help!

Thanks
Naman

Do you know which plugin is being used? If it's check_http, none of the elements are really being "rendered". It's just grabbing the HTML returned by the remote web server (similar to how curl works).

Hi,

We simply want to capture rendering time of any web page so I believe it is possible in Nagios.Could you please tell me which plugin is required to make it possible and steps are documented ?

You can use check_http as @mcapra mentioned to get the simple time it takes to download, for example -

Code: Select all

[root@centos7 libexec]# ./check_http -H google.com
HTTP OK: HTTP/1.1 302 Found - 911 bytes in 0.131 second response time |time=0.131485s;;;0.000000 size=911B;;;0
If you're looking at full page rendering, you may want to look at Selenium.

We have a document that explains how to use the Nagios portion with Selenium, you'll need to read more about the actual product to get the full rendering / testing going though. We can only help with the Nagios side of things.

Just checking in since we have not heard from you in a while. Did @rkennedy's post clear things up or has the issue otherwise been resolved?
