“WebPageTest.org is moving to the new UI within the Catchpoint Portal to provide users with enhanced features” in https://docs.catchpoint.com/wptpro/docs/webpagetest-faq

🤣🤦‍♂️🤡

Ok, the roadmap in #WebPageTest #Catchpoint docs says “Add scripting capabilities to scheduled tests for full control” in the “Later (Future Enhancements)” section…

https://docs.catchpoint.com/wptpro/docs/webpagetest-roadmap

As some features like authentication are now only available in scheduled tests, we can't have both authentification and scripts in the same tests… 😭

Basic authentication is in the “Next (Planned for Upcoming Releases)” section of the roadmap, while it was available before…

Catchpoint

With #WebPageTest before #Catchpoint, we could set the URL for the test, and a script that had access to variables like %ORIGIN% or %URL%

Now, when we activate the script feature in an “Instant Test”, the URL field is disabled, so we can't have reusable scripts… 😭

Oh, and it looks like using scripts is not possible in scheduled tests, I couldn't find it. 😡

#webperf #enshittification

Almost every time I try to connect to #Catchpoint 's #WebPageTest with our paid account, I get a 400 error. 😭

I have to try 5 to 10 times before being able to access the tool and use it…

@grigs do you have similar issues?

Pete’s Take: Catchpoint at Cloud Field Day 22

Tech Field Day always produces such great technical content! However, it can be a challenge keeping up with it due to sheer quantity. I have to prioritize, focus on companies that I consider “interesting”.

#SymLink: Catchpoint presented its end-to-end internet performance monitoring solutions at AppDev Field Day, highlighting the need for comprehensive app monitoring across various sectors. #Catchpoint #KatiLehmuskoski #ADFD1 #LinkedIn
