The composition is where the load test is composed. For this particular test, there are two tracks — one for each API (see the image, below).

(This composition is made up of two tracks, each corresponding to one clip.)

In each track, two locations are defined. This is for the simulated users’ locations. The requests can also be defined in terms of percentage, i.e., 90% to 10%.

It is best practice to maximize the load generated on each server. For example, if the requirement calls for 900 users for track 1 (the login track), you might want to use six servers are across the two locations (three servers in each location).

Best practice 7

Each load generator maximum should not be exceeded, for each test.

For the second track, the load is just 100 users from two locations (one server in each location is sufficient).
