Method and system, comprising: capturing a plurality of secure communications between the first application and the second application; grouping the plurality of communications into one or more streams, each stream representing a network connection; and processing the one or more streams in parallel to create a plurality of transactions.

Methods and systems for non-intrusive analysis of secure communications

Methods and Systems for non-intrusive real-time analysis of secure communications between a first application and a second application, wherein the first and second applications communicate through a communication channel. A plurality of secure communications between the first application and the second application is non-intrusively and securely captured. The plurality of communications is processed to process communications from a physical layer to a network layer. The plurality of communications is grouped into a plurality of streams and connection meta information is added to each stream, wherein each stream represents a single network connection. A plurality of transactions is created from the communications included in the plurality of streams, wherein a stream within the plurality of streams is encrypted, and the encrypted stream is decrypted.

Systems and methods comprising a context analyzer configured to associate one or more Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) transactions, an extensible document parser configured to parse a document included in the one or more HTTP transactions; and a library of parser additions used by the context analyzer to generate context-full replay instructions.

Systems and methods for context management

A recorder, comprising: a context analyzer configured to associate HTTP transactions of a web application with a web session, wherein the web application executes code on the client side; an extensible document parser configured to parse a document included in the HTTP transactions; a library of parser additions used by the context analyzer to generate a context-full replay instruction; and a script generator configured to record a script including the context-full replay instruction in order to recreate the HTTP transactions in order to simulate use of the web application by a user.

Automatic context management for web applications with client side code execution

Provided is a method and system for monitoring and analysis of networked systems, that is non-intrusive and real time. Both secure and non-secure traffic may be analyzed. The provided method involves non-intrusively copying data from a communication medium, reconstructing this data to a higher level of communication, such as the application level, grouping the data into sets, each set representing a session, and organizing the data for chosen sessions in hierarchical fashion which corresponds to the hierarchy of the communicated information. If monitored communications are encrypted, they are non-intrusively decrypted in real time. Hierarchically reconstructed session data is used by one or more plug-in applications, such as alarms, archival applications, visualization applications, script generation applications, abandonment monitoring applications, error detection applications, performance monitoring applications, and others.

Method of non-intrusive analysis of secure and non-secure web application traffic in real-time

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for providing automatic context management for simulating virtual users for testing and monitoring web applications, including those web applications that execute code on the client side, without requiring the actual execution of client side web application code or the execution of the client within the testing, monitoring, or simulation tool. Simulation tools with automatic context management according to the present invention can record and replay context-full scripts that do not require manual customization and are capable of handling state information even for web applications that execute code on the client side. These scripts are able to realistically mimic complex web application transactions on the network HTTP layer.
