Load Test Stats clarification

Hello,
I am running a thread strategy test (start = 1, end = 3) for 60 seconds. At the end of the test I have the following counters

cnt = 74
tps = 14.39

My understand is that cnt = tps * duration. However, this does not seem to add up. Is my understanding correct ?

I am also attaching the load test screen.

Thanks

Ali

    Hi Ali,

    please make sure that you are using the "Calculate TPS/BPS - based on actual time passed when using the Thread Strategy".. (set in the LoadTest Options Dialog). The default strategy is based on the average response-time and number of threads and since your number of threads is changing you will get a misleading results..

    Hope this helps!

    regards,
