# KasmVNC Client Tests
|
|
|
|
The page `/tests/vnc_playback.html` can be used to playback KasmVNC session recordings. The playbacks can be ran in realtime or as fast as possible for performance testing.
|
|
|
|
## Creating new recordings
|
|
|
|
In order to create a new recording, you will need to disable KasmVNC's built-in web server, enable the legacy VNC TCP port, and disable authentication.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt-get install websockify
|
|
vncserver -noWebsocket -disableBasicAuth
|
|
websockify --web /usr/share/kasmvnc/www --record=/home/ubuntu/record.bin 8444 localhost:5901
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Websockify automatically adds a number to the end of the filename, so the above example might be record.bin.8. After you are finished recording, Ctrl+C the running websockify process and mv the file to the noVNC www directory.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo mkdir /usr/share/kasmvnc/www/recordings
|
|
mv /home/ubuntu/record.bin.8 /usr/share/kasmvnc/www/recordings
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Playing Back Recordings
|
|
|
|
Place recordings on the KasmVNC server in the /usr/share/kasmvnc/www/recordings directory, you may need to create this directory. Then navigate to https://server-ip:8444/tests/vnc_playback.html?data=record.bin.8 where record.bin.8 is the name of the playback file you placed in the recordings directory.
|
|
|
|
## Kasm Provided Recordings
|
|
|
|
The following recordings are used by Kasm Technologies to provide repeatable performance statisitics using different rendering settings.

## Historical Statistics
|
|
|
|
This table keeps track of performance of pre-defined recordings, defined in the previous section, on static hardware that can be replicated over time to track performance improvements.
