I have a web app and I include google analytics. My active users seems to of spiked and I'm incredibly paranoid that I'm somehow double counting my analytics.
Is there any way to see if I'm doing this?
As Nebojsa mentioned, you can inspect source and search for ga.js or analytics.js to see if it's in your application twice.
Look through your source code to see if you have the partial rendering in multiple places (ex. header and footer)
Setup another Google Analytics account and test locally if its double counting your visits. See this post for setting up GA on localhost
Use the Google Analytics Tag Assistant to verify that everything is setup correctly. It will tell you if there are any implementation problems, including multiple tracking codes. It also helps with Adwords, re-marketing and other Google product scripts.
Use the Google Analytics Debugger. This would probably be the most helpful to determine if a single hit is being double counted as it walks you though every single function call the analytics urchin makes.
just open source in the browser and look-up for code of analitics...par example
_gaq.push(['_setAccount', ...

I'm going to test my SOLR analyzer and I've found instructions how to do it here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Running+Your+Analyzer.
But I need to check several thousand of words, so I'm going to do it programmatically, not manually. Does SOLR have any REST API to run analyzer?
Thank you!
The Solr Admin page is just a set of static HTML files that uses the REST API offered by Solr behind the scenes. If you watch the Network tab in your browser's developer tools while navigating it, you'll see all the endpoints it talks to.
After doing this on the Analysis page, you can see that it makes requests to three endpoints, one to fetch the HTML, then two new requests to get the schema (for the field list) and one to perform the actual analysis:
http://localhost:8983/solr/corename/analysis/field?wt=json&analysis.showmatch=true&analysis.fieldvalue=asd&analysis.query=asd&analysis.fieldname=content
We were running on AppEngine but recently moved over to Managed VMs. For some reason AppStats is no longer available? We just get a 404 not found error when browsing to our appstats URL. Is appstats not supported on Managad VMs? If not, is there a way of isolating poorly performing endpoints within our application?
One way to isolate poorly performing endpoints is to use the advanced filter search in the GCP Logs Viewer. It is a little hard to find at first.
To get there, in your Google Cloud console, navigate to Logging for your project. At the right of the text box for "Filter by label or text search" you will see a small dropdown arrow. Click that and select "Convert to advanced filter". This will allow you to write your own sql-ish query where you can find requests that took longer than n to complete.
For example, add the following to the filter:
protoPayload.latency>"0.300s"
This will return a list of all requests that took longer than 300 milliseconds to process. If you have Cloud Trace enabled, you can click on the request response time to see the timeline for the individual service calls.
Ok, i found this link https://code.google.com/p/gwt-platform/wiki/CrawlerSupport#Using_gwtp-crawler-service that explain how you can make your GWTP app crawlable.
I got some GWTP experience, but i know nothing about AppEngine.
Google said its "crawlservice.appspot.com" can parse any Ajax page. Now I have a page "http://mydomain.com#!article" that has an artice that was pulled from Database. Say that page has the text "this is my article". Now I open this link:
crawlservice.appspot.com/?key=123456&url=http://mydomain.com#!article, then i can see all javascript but I couldn't find the text "this is my article".
Why?
Now let check with a real life example
open this link https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-web-toolkit/Syi04ArKl4k & you will see the text "If i open that url in IE"
Now you open http://crawlservice.appspot.com/?key=123456&url=https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-web-toolkit/Syi04ArKl4k you can see all javascript but there is no text "If i open that url in IE",
Why is it?
SO if i use http://crawlservice.appspot.com/?key=123456&url=mydomain#!article then Can google crawler be able to see the text in mydomain#!article?
also why the key=123456, it means everyone can use this service? do we have our own key? does google limit the number of calls to their service?
Could you explain all these things?
Extra Info:
Christopher suggested me to use this example
https://github.com/ArcBees/GWTP-Samples/tree/master/gwtp-samples/gwtp-sample-crawler-service
However, I ran into other problem. My app is a pure GWTP, it doesn't have appengine-web.xml in WEB-INF. I have no idea what is appengine or GAE mean or what is Maven.
DO i need to register AppEngine?
My Appp may have a lot of traffic. Also I am using Godaddy VPS. I don't want to register App Engine since I have to pay for Google for extra traffic.
Everything in my GWTP App is ok right now except Crawler Function.
So if I don't use Google App Engine, then how can i build Crawler Function for GWTP?
I tried to use HTMLUnit for my app, but HTMLUnit doesn't work for GWTP (See details in here Why HTMLUnit always shows the HostPage no matter what url I type in (Crawlable GWT APP)? )
I believe you are not allowed to crawl Google Groups. Probably they are actively trying to prevent this, so you do not see the expected content.
There's a couple points I wish to elaborate on:
The Google Code documentation is no longer maintained. You should look on Github instead: https://github.com/ArcBees/GWTP/wiki/Crawler-Support
You shouldn't use http://crawlservice.appspot.com. This isn't a Google service, it's out of date and we may decide to delete it down the road. This only serves as a public example. You should create your own application on App Engine (https://appengine.google.com/)
There is a sample here (https://github.com/ArcBees/GWTP-Samples/tree/master/gwtp-samples/gwtp-sample-crawler-service) using GWTP's Crawler Service. You can basically copy-paste it. Just make sure you update the <application> tag in appengine-web.xml to the name of your application and use your own service key in CrawlerModule.
Finally, if your client uses GWTP and you followed the documentation, it will work. If you want to try it manually, you must encode the Query Parameters.
For example http://crawlservice.appspot.com/?key=123456&url=http://www.arcbees.com#!service will not work because the hash (everything including and after #) is not sent to the server.
On the other hand http://crawlservice.appspot.com/?key=123456&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.arcbees.com%2F%23!service will work.
Is there a way, or is there a web site that can run test cases against another REST server?
On the "tester" website you'd say: do this PUT on this URI, using this authentication mechanism, using this JSON string, with this header, etc. If the result contains XYZ then consider it a success, otherwise consider it a failure...
Other users should be able to add new test cases and edit existing test cases.
I wanted to check before writing a combination of wiki, google app engine, selenium, etc.
Thanks.
Its not what you probably search for, but still probably worth the check: SimpleTestIO
That project's goal is to be easier than Selenium and easy to use. In the future will be probably paid.
Disclaimer: I am not connected with the page, just found it while researching for Selenium alternatives
I can't find anything recent on this. Is there any documentation on how to track with Google Analytics without using ga.js? I want a JS implementation on mobile devices but I don't want to load up 9KB of local memory or use server-side GA. I'm primarily interested only in tracking page views and uniques. Has anyone rolled their own GA implementation?
You can track using just a gif file.
To use GA without javascript... do it by generating our own gif file and passing some information back to Google through our server. That is, we generate a gif, assign and track our own cookie, and then gather that information as you move through the site, and use a HTTP request with the appropriate query strings and pass it back to Google, which they then compile and treat as regular old analytics.

Here is a detailed explanation for how its done.
