Hi Janett,
Thank you for posting your question. I have a few questions for you:
- Is this graph consistent with the other graphs in your report? (i.e., is there a gap in requests between ~45 seconds and ~1 minute 45 seconds?)
- Are the remote agents in your local network or the cloud?
- When you created the different virtual user groups in the test editor, did you add a start delay to either group?
Best,
Hi Ryan,
Here are my answers,
- Is this graph consistent with the other graphs in your report? (i.e., is there a gap in requests between ~45 seconds and ~1 minute 45 seconds?)
Yes its consistent with other graphs. I have attached some other graph snapshots of the same test scenario.
- Are the remote agents in your local network or the cloud?
Remote agents in local network.
- When you created the different virtual user groups in the test editor, did you add a start delay to either group?
No. Start Delay in zero.
Hi Janett,
Thanks for the reply. This is unusual. It seems like there is a delay in starting the virtual user group running on your remote agent. If you repeat the test do you get the same results? If so, I suggest following up with our support team for a more in-depth analysis of your project. You can contact support using the following link: https://support.smartbear.com/message/?prod=LoadComplete
When you find out what is causing this behavior, would you please let us know here on the forums?
Best Regards,
Hi Ryan,
Finally I got answer from support team of SmartBear sending my test project to analyze. They said, virtual user groups are executed sequentially within a test, not in parallel. They have plans to parallelize the virtual user groups' execution and implement it in future. Finally they asked me to submit a feature request in the community.

Hi,
Thank you a lot for the update on the problem.
May I ask you for the screenshot of the problematic scenario to get a better understanding on what setup causes the mentioned problem?
Hi Ryan,
I am getting the same results when I repeat the test.
Also I tried in another computer as a master station installing the LoadComplete trial version. There I am getting the same problem in different way. With two stations (master & agent) it is simulating few virtual users from both stations. Not the assigned number of virtual users. But the graph is not bi-modal.
Anyway I have sent a request to the support team link that you sent. Waiting for the response from them.
If I find the reason, I’ll let you know.
Best Regards
