simple login test with 10 different userids....

Brian Donahue

Hi Danish,

That sounds about right. Each time the load test script makes a request
for state information, the entries are pulled out in a 'random' order. In
other words, out of ten requests for the state information, all ten entries
(usernames and passwords) are sent to the script and passed to the web
server. On the eleventh request, the state information will select another
of the ten users at random.
