performance test of document-uploading steps

Unregistered User Posts: 509 8/5/2023	Unregistered User Posts: 509 There is a document-uploading step in my UI performance test (not an API performance test). I could use a unique test doc under a unique path/folder to be uploaded in all virtual users and iterations running. My tests will be scheduled to run on the test agent(s) hosted on the Azure cloud. So, my question is whether I need to copy the test doc to the unique path/folder of the test agent(s) and then use a fixed or parametrized file-path/folder in my test script? Thanks.

There are two ways to identify test docs to upload in a dataset: · The full path of the file (ex. c:\myfolder\Document001.pdf). You have to copy the test docs to each load generator and place them in the same location as the controller. This is not recommended for distributed tests. · The local path of the file if the file is stored in the local DataFiles directory (ex. \Authorized\Document001.pdf) if the path is in <test directory>\DataFiles\Authorized\Document001.pdf). You don’t have to copy the test docs; they will be copied automatically when the test starts. This is the preferred method for distributed tests
