LoadUI testing Soapui Runner and queued requests
Hi, I apologize but I'm really (really) new to LoadUI, actually this is my second day. I've read almost all the info on the LoadUI site and although much confuses me (it must be referring to an older version as somethings are totally different and I can't find some of the settings) I roughly understand, all except one thing, the Queue.
I setup LoadUI to run one my soapui tests. Really it's nothing more than a simple request that goes through our server to another clients server. With the rate set at 10 req/s it worked wonderfully. I then poked it up to 20. That was when I thought I noticed something odd between the queue and the discarded/failed numbers (one of the servers we send the requests onto is rather slow). So I forced the issue (upped the # requests to 40 req/s) to get a lot in the queue and watch what happened and couldn't explain the results.
During the run, 2 seconds before the run was over the test stood at
Requests 273
Running 100
Completed 173
Queued 593
Discarded 0
Failed 0
All fine and good. I expected either the queue to complete or be discarded. But was surprised by the final results (2 more seconds elapsed)
Requests 285
Running 0
Completed 285
Queued 0
Discarded 0
Failed 0
So, where did the (roughly) 591 go? (273 + 593 - 285) (I know the number isn't exact but...). Why weren't they in the discarded?
Not sure how to report results to my boss when I can't explain this.
Thanks so much!
PS I can upload a screenshot of the results vs the 2 seconds prior to the end of the test.
