StresStimulus does not simulate the time between wcf calls to my web services. They all went in a burst artificially stressing the server. How to fix that?

In StresStimulus you have a full control over the time delay simulated between requests. You can simulate the recorded time, a constant time or even time individually picked for each request. Here is how to set it up using the think time mechanism.

By default, think time is injected before base webpage requests, which are automatically tagged as primary. To use think time with other requests, such as wcf, as in your case (or AJAX or Silverlight requests for that matter),  you need to manually mark them as primary.

To do so, select the wcf sessions, right-click and click “Mark selected sessions as primary” in “StresStimulus commands”.


After that, in the “think time section”, select “use recorded think times”. Alternatively you can set “use constant think time”, or customize the delay between the requests using “page settings” grid in the “test case” section.


 You need to set these options once since they will be saved with your test.
