Requests Interval in different Generators

Hi,

What is the best generator i should use if i do not want any interval between requests? i do not want to wait for 1 sec to send the next request. I want to keep sending requests without waiting for the next second.

Fixed Rate generator won't allow me to set the interval value, just select the unit.

Fixed Load generator does not work that way also.

Usage generator allows me to set the request interval as 0 but still send a request each second.

Example:
If i run my load test for 3 min (180 sec) with the Usage generator with 0 request interval or the Fixed Rate generator, the test will generate 179 completed requests, which is 1 request per sec and last one is truncated.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

  • Hello,

    You are looking for the Fixed Load Component.
    Make sure you read up on how to connect it, which is a little funky as far as LoadUI goes.

    Also make sure that what you are trying to accomplish makes sense, because releasing an undeterministic amount of "virtual users" creates results that are tricky to interpret.

    that is described here

    Best,
