To set up a load test using BlazeMeter’s cloud service, start by creating an account on the platform. Once logged in, click on ‘Create Test’ and select ‘Performance Test’. Input your desired test name and specify the number of users for the load test. Next, configure the location settings to simulate traffic from different geographical locations.
In the advanced settings, adjust the ramp-up period and duration according to your requirements. For scripting, you can either upload a JMeter script or use BlazeMeter’s Chrome extension to record user scenarios. After uploading or recording the script, validate it to ensure there are no errors.
Once all configurations are done, save the test and run it. Monitor the results in real-time through the dashboard provided by BlazeMeter. You can analyze response times, throughput, error percentage, etc., and generate reports after the test completion.
