public class VirtualUser
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.lang.Runnable, com.facilita.fc.runtime.Commands, DataDictionary, com.facilita.fc.runtime.IMonitoredVU
```
Represents a single Virtual User.
eggPlant Performance emulates real user activity on a system through Virtual Users. Each Virtual User executes a script, or sequence of scripts (workflow) that contain actions which replicate a real user's interaction with an application. Although a real user requires a single desktop or workstation client, many Virtual Users can be simulated from a single client machine.
It is important to understand the distinction between a Virtual User (represented by the VirtualUser class) and a Virtual User Script (represented by the VirtualUserScript class). A Virtual User Script defines a series of actions that a user performs when interacting with a client/server application; whereas a Virtual User runs Virtual User Scripts during test execution. A Virtual User can run a single Virtual User Script, or a sequence of Virtual User Scripts. In eggPlant Performance a sequence of Virtual User Scripts is called a Workflow.

  - raiseAlert
```
public final void raiseAlert(int severity,
                             java.lang.String message)
```
    Writes an alert of the specified severity to the Alerts table in Test Controller.
    The AlertManager class contains static final variables which can be passed as the severity parameter, i.e. AlertManager.Information, AlertManager.Warning and AlertManager.Error.
    RaiseAlert must be used sparingly. It is possible to flood the Alerts log. For diagnostic purposes use writeMessage(String), setProgressPoint(String), error(String) and warn(String) to output to the VU event log; this can be viewed at runtime in Test Controller. The Alerts log should only be used for a small number of important messages.
    
    Parameters:
    
    severity - the severity of the alert
    
    message - an alert message which appears in the Description column of the alerts table in the Alerts sub-view of Test Controller
  - onRaiseAlert
```
protected void onRaiseAlert(int severity,
                            java.lang.String description)

    This method is called whenever an alert is raised using the raiseAlert(int, String) method.
    Override this method in your custom Virtual User if you have code which should be run whenever an alert is raised.
    The AlertManager class contains static final variables which can be passed as the severity parameter, i.e. AlertManager.Information, AlertManager.Warning and AlertManager.Error.
    
    Parameters:
    
    severity - the severity of the alert
    
    description - an alert message which appears in the Description column of the alerts table in the Alerts sub-view of Test Controller
  - writeSystemLog
```
public void writeSystemLog(java.lang.String message)
```
    Writes an alert of Error severity to the Alerts table in Test Controller.
    This method was included for backwards compatibility with older eggPlant Performance scripts. The Test Controller Alerts table is made accessible from the script using writeSystemLog(String). writeSystemLog() will add an alert of severity level Error. Other table fields include the time into the test the error alert was raised (HH:MM:SS), the source of the alert (this will always be 'Engine' when called from the script), the index of the VU which raised the alert and the injector that the VU was deployed on, the group which the VU was a member of and the script that the VU was executing when the alert was raised.
    WriteSystemLog must be used sparingly. It is possible to flood the Alerts log. For diagnostic purposes use writeMessage(String), setProgressPoint(String) , error(String) and warn(String) to output to the VU event log; this can be viewed at runtime in Test Controller. The Alerts log should only be used for a small number of important messages.
    
    Parameters:
    
    message - an alert message which appears in the Description column of the alerts table in the Alerts sub-view of Test Controller
    
    See Also:

    Returns a List value held in the dictionary, or the defaultList if the key cannot be found.
    Default data warning:
    When called from a VU script, if the defaultList is returned then a message is also written to the VU Event Log. This feature helps highlight problems with data bindings when data is expected to come from a data source, but the default value is returned instead.
    An example of the message entry in the Event Log:
    
    Type ID Info
    
    Message Default data warning No value found for key: myList, using default value instead: List with first item: Item01
    
    To turn this feature off, go to the Test view in eggPlant Performance Studio and uncheck the option "Enable default data warnings" on the Data tab.

  - nextIteration
```
public final void nextIteration()
                         throws ScriptContextTerminationException
```
    Stops execution of the current script, and starts execution of the next iteration.
    The execution of the calling script ceases and the execution of the next iteration of scripts is begun. If the sequence of scripts being executed is the initial or final sequence of scripts, then the execution of this sequence is curtailed. Otherwise, the execution of the repeated sequence of scripts begins again at the next iteration.
    This method raises a ScriptContextTerminationException, and under normal conditions you should not write any code to catch this exception, as this would interfere with the mechanism of the eggPlant Performance engine.
    
    Throws:
    
    ScriptContextTerminationException - Exception indicating that this script shoudl terminate
  - finalSequence
```
public final void finalSequence()
                         throws ScriptContextTerminationException
```
    Stops execution of the current script and then executes the scripts in the final section of the current workflow.
    The execution of the calling script ceases and the execution of all further scripts in the current sequence is curtailed.
    This method raises a ScriptContextTerminationException, and under normal conditions you should not write any code to catch this exception, as this would interfere with the mechanism of the eggPlant Performance engine.
    
    Throws:

  - nextSequence
```
public final void nextSequence()
                        throws ScriptContextTerminationException
```
    Stops execution of the current script and any other scripts in the current sequence, and starts execution of the next sequence of scripts.
    This method raises a ScriptContextTerminationException, and under normal conditions you should not write any code to catch this exception, as this would interfere with the mechanism of the eggPlant Performance engine.
    
    Throws:

  - nextScript
```
public final void nextScript()
                      throws ScriptContextTerminationException
```
    Stops execution of the current script, and starts execution of the next script in the sequence.
    The execution of the calling script ceases and the execution of the next script in the sequence of scripts to be executed is begun. This method and the return statement are not equivalent. This method should be used in preference to the return statement. Remember that a VirtualUserScript may have additional methods other than VirtualUserScript.script() and executing a return statement from anywhere other than the VirtualUserScript.script() method will not exit the execution of the VirtualUserScript object.
    This method raises a ScriptContextTerminationException and under normal conditions you should not write any code to catch this exception, as this would interfere with the mechanism of the eggPlant Performance engine.
    
    Throws:

```
    Records a transaction in the VU event log, specifying whether the transaction passed.
    The recommended way to record a transaction is by using the startTransaction(String) and endTransaction(String) methods.
    However this method is useful if you need to measure a transaction but the start time and/or the transaction name are not known at the point the transaction starts. For example, you may wish to record a different transaction name depending on the result of a particular call to the SUT.
    e.g.
    int startTime = getElapsedTime(); boolean result = doSomething(); int duration = getElapsedTime() - startTime; // Transaction name differs, depending on the result of the call if (result) { recordTransaction("transaction1", startTime, duration, true); } else { recordTransaction("transaction2", startTime, duration, false); }
    Parameters:

    Records a transaction in the VU event log, specifying whether the transaction passed.
    The recommended way to record a transaction is by using the startTransaction(String) and endTransaction(String) methods.
    However this method is useful if you need to measure a transaction but the start time and/or the transaction name are not known at the point the transaction starts. For example, you may wish to record a different transaction name depending on the result of a particular call to the SUT.
    e.g.
    int startTime = getElapsedTime(); boolean result = doSomething(); int duration = getElapsedTime() - startTime; // Transaction name differs, depending on the result of the call if (result) { recordTransaction("transaction1", startTime, duration, true); } else { recordTransaction("transaction2", startTime, duration, false); }
    Parameters:
    
    id - the transaction identifier
    
    startTime - the time at which the transaction started, measured in milliseconds since the start of the test run

    Writes a start timing event to the VU event log.
    The time in milliseconds since the start of the test run is recorded when this method is called. When endTiming(String) is called with the same id, an end timing event is written to the VU event log. eggPlant Performance uses the time difference between the events to calculate the timing with the specified id.
    Timings are similar to transactions but are measured and grouped separately in test results.
    
    Parameters:
    
    id - the timing identifier
    
    Throws:

```
public void failTiming(java.lang.String id)
                throws java.lang.Exception
```
    Writes a fail timing event to the VU event log.
    The time in milliseconds since the start of the test run is recorded when this method is called. The startTiming(String) method should already have been called with the same id. eggPlant Performance uses the time difference between the events to calculate the timing with the specified id.
    This timing will be interpreted as having failed, so it will be counted separately in Test Controller and Analyzer. This is equivalent to calling endTiming(String, boolean) with a pass value of false.
    Timings are similar to transactions but are measured and grouped separately in test results.
    
    Parameters:
    
    id - the timing identifier
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception - An error occurred
  - failTiming

```
    Writes a fail timing event to the VU event log.
    The time in milliseconds since the start of the test run is recorded when this method is called. The startTiming(String) method should already have been called with the same id. eggPlant Performance uses the time difference between the events to calculate the timing with the specified id.
    This timing will be interpreted as having failed, so it will be counted separately in Test Controller and Analyzer. This is equivalent to calling endTiming(String, boolean) with a pass value of false.

  - failTransaction
```
public int failTransaction(java.lang.String id)
                    throws java.lang.Exception
```
    Writes a fail transaction event to the VU event log.
    The time in milliseconds since the start of the test run is recorded when this method is called. The startTransaction(String) method should already have been called with the same id. eggPlant Performance uses the time difference between the events to calculate the transaction time for the transaction named with the specified id.
    This transaction will be interpreted as having failed, so it will be counted separately in Test Controller and Analyzer. This is equivalent to calling endTransaction(String, boolean) with a pass value of false.
    Test Controller and Analyzer use the transaction times to calculate statistics such as average transaction time for each different id. These statistics give an indication of the performance of the System Under Test, as they show how long it takes for Virtual Users to perform the actions.
    
    Parameters:
    
    id - the transaction identifier
    
    Returns:
    
    elapsed time in milliseconds since the start of the test

```
    Writes a fail transaction event to the VU event log, specifying a tag which appears in the Info column.
    The time in milliseconds since the start of the test run is recorded when this method is called. The startTransaction(String, String) method should already have been called with the same id. eggPlant Performance uses the time difference between the events to calculate the transaction time for the transaction named with the specified id.
