When you set up a test in Splunk Synthetic Monitoring, you can configure the viewport and network connection of the device from which the test is simulated.

Because Browser tests capture the visual experience of a page, while Uptime and API tests only capture response data, viewport applies to Browser tests only. Network connection applies to all test types.

Browser tests in Splunk Synthetic Monitoring capture the visual experience of a user interacting with your application. The viewport is the framed area on a device's screen for viewing information, such as the browser window on a desktop. By default, Browser tests run from a desktop-sized viewport. You can configure tests to run from other viewport sizes to test the user experience from a variety of window sizes and device types.

4337
When you set up a test, you can choose the viewport size from a list of common devices, or set a custom viewport by height and width.

You can run Browser, Uptime, or API tests to simulate network connections of various latencies, including Mobile LTE, Mobile 3G, DSL, Mobile 5G, and cable internet. Testing your site from a variety of connection types lets you monitor the experience of users in a variety of settings.
