Run Site in xx Second in CMD

Answer 1

What are you trying to achieve by this script?

If you're doing load testing, there are plenty useful tools out there... Take a look at this list for example.

If you must do it in a batch file, what is your environment? Windows, I assume? Can you run Powershell or Windows Scripting Host files? Using these, you can fairly easily script your browser to open a website, delay for x seconds, and open another website.

There is some code here to open a website using WSH:

Code from above website:

Dim aLinks(2)
aLinks(0) = "http://localhost"
aLinks(1) = "http://otherhost"

Set oIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") ', "oIE_")
oIE.Visible = True
oIE.FullScreen = False

'open a new window
oIE.Navigate2 aLinks(0)
Do While oIE.Busy
  WScript.Sleep 50
Loop

WScript.Sleep 2000
For J = Lbound(aLinks) To Ubound(aLinks)
  oIE.Navigate2 aLinks(J), navOpenInBackgroundTab 'navOpenInNewTab '
  Do While oIE.Busy
    WScript.Sleep 50
  Loop
  WScript.Sleep 3000
Next

WshShell.SendKeys "^{TAB}" 'go to the 2nd tab
WScript.Sleep 100
on error goto 0

• For opening a Web site, you can call IExplore.exe (or whatever browser is available) with the URL in the command line, and it will.

• The trickier part is inserting a 10s delay without using specialized utilities. Believe it or not, Microsoft's recommended procedure for this is to ping a non-existent site with a timeout (given by option -w) of 10 seconds.

Example:

@ECHO OFF
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\Iexplore.exe" http://my.site/1.html
ping -n1 -w10 10.9.8.7
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\Iexplore.exe" http://my.site/2.html
ping -n1 -w10 10.9.8.7
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\Iexplore.exe" http://my.site/3.html
ping -n1 -w10 10.9.8.7
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\Iexplore.exe" http://my.site/4.html
ping -n1 -w10 10.9.8.7

Answer 3

As others have said, opening a browser can work for opening a web page. Rather than hard-coding the browser, you can simply use start:

start "" "http://my/url"

To wait 10 seconds you can also ping yourself 11 times:

ping localhost -n 11 >nul 2>&1

or, starting with Windows Vista you can use timeout:

timeout /T 10 /NOBREAK >nul

So you can cobble together something like this:

setlocal enabledelayedexpansion enableextensions

set TIMEOUT=10

set WEBPAGE0=http://google.com
set WEBPAGE1=http://stackoverflow.com
set WEBPAGE2=http://en.wikipedia.org
set WEBPAGE3=...  extend as needed

set N=0
set /a X=TIMEOUT+1
:loop
if not defined WEBPAGE%N% goto :eof
start "" "!WEBPAGE%N%!"
ping localhost -n %X% >nul 2>&1
goto loop
