Confirming load test Results.

  1. We requested the log file be replayed 10 times
    • Cloud Load Test with 10 Results
  2. We had 5 URL Endpoints
    • Load Test with 5 URLs
  3. Each endpoint was executed as 10 users with 2 iterations, we should see 20 requests per end point
    • Each request 20 times
  4. We had one request which should have generated a 404 Error.
