Increase "navigate" steps in private instance

WebPageTest General Discussion

Hi,

I think scripts are limited to 20 navigate steps to avoid overloading/DOS on public instances. Is there a way to set it to a custom value on private instances?

Thanks

(for context, I’m trying to do:
{
clearCache
navigate urlA
navigate urlB
clearCache
navigate urlC
}
N consecutive times, and I haven’t figured a way to clear the cache between runs in Bulk mode, so I’m trying to do these repeats through a script)

It is hard-coded in runtest.php (in the validateScript function): webpagetest/runtest.php at master · WPO-Foundation/webpagetest · GitHub

As far as bulk testing goes, it behaves just like a bunch of separate tests so the cache will be cleared before each URL in the list. You should be able to split your tests everywhere you have a clearCache command.
