How many users Visual studio can simulate?A

Hello

I have been asked to do some load testing against our intranet home page.This home page is made of of a single page.
We know that our busiest period is on monday morning and over a 30 minute period we have 10000 page hits.

I'm planning on using a step load pattern but I'm unsure what my maximum user count should be. Is anyone able to provide link to how I'm meant to work this out.

How many users Visual studio can simulate? and what is price of per users after the limit.

Thank

Hi @ZaidTahir,

You can find details about website load testing over on https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/test/edit-load-test-scenarios?view=vs-2019. I don't see any limitations with regards to max load, but I would assume it might be dependent on the hardware running the test.

Visual Studio 2019 will be the last version with this capability as it's being deprecated.

Hi ZaidTahir,

There is no limit to the maximum number of load tests. It more related to your hardware environment. The more: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/182d94c2-ff86-4dc2-a166-661077d46c73/what-is-the-upper-limit-of-user-numbers-in-vsts-during-load-testing?forum=vststest

By the way, since the load test will be deprecated, you can use Akamai CloudTest or Blazemeter.
