When a schedule is in the running state, you can perform the following actions from the
web browser to cater to the need of the run.
Changing the number of virtual users during a run
During a run, you can increase or decrease the number of
virtual users that was defined in the schedule. You can apply the
change to the current stage or to all the remaining stages in the
schedule.
Changing the stage duration during a run
After you specify the user load for different stages in
a schedule, you can change the stage duration during a run based on
your requirements.
Releasing virtual users from synchronization points
To record the response time of the system under
test at different points, you can release virtual users either all
together or in staggered intervals. You can release virtual users
from synchronization points during a run.
Changing log levels during a run
To view more detailed information about a test or schedule
while it is running, you can change the log level.
Stopping test runs
You can stop a test run before it is complete.
For example, you might detect serious problems in the run and not
want to wait for it to finish. When stopping the test run, you can
choose to save the results and the test log of the run.
