Query Regarding the Ramp Up Period in "Forever" Mode and Loop Mode
Hello JMeter'ians,
While working with JMeter, I am just confused with the Ramp-up period field
in two different situations.
Ex. 1.
No. # Thread (Users): 5
Ramp Up Period: 300 sec
*Loop Count #: 1*
My Understanding: 5 Users will hit to the server in 300 secs (1 min for 1
user).
Ex. 2.
No. # Thread (Users): 5
Ramp Up Period: 300 sec
*Loop Count #: Forever (when i schedule it for a particular period say
for 30 min.)*
My Understanding:* I am not clear on this front **... What is the use
or affect of Ramp-up period here in this scenario (scheduled mechanism)?*
Is there no purpose of this Ramp-Up period in Forever mode??? (I hope
I am *wrong
*here in this consideration)
Thanks,
Shirish

mmmh
in reality, the ramp up is the time we give to the server to start all the threads.
In this case, the first thread is started at the time 0, the second one after 1 minute etc....
Most of the time, I allow 1 sec for each thread.
A different reason to use a long ramp, is to avoid that all threads end doing the same operation at the same time, which makes the
test much worse than reality.
A random timer should work better in this case.

sergio

Thanks Sebb, Sergio for your suggestions.
I went thru the article provided and also discussed the same with my team.
Query: In the second case...
No. # Thread (Users): 5
Ramp Up Period: 300 sec
*Loop Count #: Forever (when i schedule it for a particular period say
for 30 min.)*
My Understanding:* Still we are not clear on this front :( **... What
is the purpose or affect of Ramp-up period here in this scenario (scheduled
mechanism)?*
Is there no purpose of this Ramp-Up period in Forever mode??? (I hope I am
*wrong* here in this consideration).
