Service Virtualization

  • 1.  Is it possible to create Virtual service with Response file size 5500KB?

    Posted Sep 21, 2017 01:01 PM

    I tried to create virtual service using with R/R pairs which is having around 5500KB size. After creating the service VSI is displayed in black and white XML tags. Whereas if I create Virtual Service using less size of R/R files, VSI is displayed in color XMl tags. Is there any issue with file size?

    Hi,

     

    There should be no issues deploying and using such a large virtual service.  I think what you're seeing is the simply the XML editor struggling with the large size.

    You might help the editor by increasing the memory on the Workstation using a VMOPTIONS.

    Look for the "bin" folder within the DevTest installation folder.  There's a file named Workstation.vmoptions

     

    There are instructions in there on how to configure it.  For example, use -Xmx1024m to increase heap size to 1 GB.

     

    If you set this value too high, however, Workstation won't launch.  It depends on how much physical memory you have and what else is running.
