Use the New Job Wizard to create a new job. The New Job Wizard guides you through the process of creating a database load test (workload), as well as selecting a database to test, setting general job options, and specifying agents.
Navigating the New Job Wizard is easy. The three major steps are displayed in the left pane: Database Under Test, Workload, and Agent. The individual tests you add are displayed under the Workload step. Click on a step or test in the left pane to display the available options and properties in the right pane.
To allow the wizard to guide you through each step, after completing a page click the green arrow at the bottom of the page. This will advance you to the next step. For example, after selecting a connection on the first page of the wizard, click .
To create a new job
Click inside the checkbox to the left of the agent name to select it. A checkmark displays for each selected agent. See About Agents for more information.
Note: When you run a job using one or more local agents, if Agent utilization of resources on the local machine is too high, errors could occur.
After specifying the test-level and job-level options, you can save the job, run the job, or schedule the job. Review the following:

This test type allows you to create load scenarios from one of the following industry standard benchmark tests: TPC-C, TPC-E, TPC-H, AS3AP, Scalable Hardware, TPC-B, or TPC-D. Each of these tests includes the steps to create/load all the required benchmark objects needed to execute the standard benchmark workloads. These synthetic workloads can be used when no real-world data is available to import for database load testing.
This test type also allows you to create a workload using the Benchmark Factory Replication test.
For more information, including a description of each of the standard benchmark tests included in Benchmark Factory, see Overview of Benchmark Testing.
