*Clarify that path values the paths are the defaults default and that they could be different?modified - paths.py*Confusion - contradictionfor hostperm.1 file in documentation
<pre>(Optional) For the page load test to work, modify the hostperm.1 file
</pre>
* Highlight sections that (may) need to be modified
** Student comment: Within code, could be hard to understand.
* Clarify any concerns about skewing the test
**How much of this test is reliant on applications currently running on the system? Can one skew the test results to give inaccurate readings by overloading the system?
**By running a quick test I realized that by overloading the processor, the results of the test become much less useful. Before running the test framework I started a multitude of applications to occupy the processor:
***2 x YouTube Flash Video Sites
* Clarify yaml config setup
** Do mention that indentation is important :)
** Bold (use "preferences : {}" for no prefs) and (use "extensions: {}" for none)
* Should creation of the 'extension_perf_reports' directory be incorporated into the zip with the python files to save the user from having to make the directory?
* Student Comment: Mention that you need to "download and install them, in this order". The reason is because I assumed this was an installation walkthrough guide so I presume you may need us to configure things manually in the guide.
*Step-by-step guide
*Organize by section
*Clearer in these areas:
** Be more specific in the "Configure the paths" section.
**Explain what preferences : {} is.
**if you're going to change the dom.allow_scripts_to_close_windows you have to cancel the py script before u change the setting.
**firefox should not be open before the test starts.
