Edit Load Test

PerfAgents allows you to modify an existing load test using two editing modes: Quick Edit and Detailed Edit. This gives you flexibility to make fast configuration changes or perform deeper updates without recreating the test.

Once a load test is created, it can be edited at any time from the All Tests list.

Accessing Edit Options

1. From the All Tests screen, locate the load test you want to modify

2. Click Edit icon on the selected test

3. You are presented with two editing options:

   1. Quick Edit

   2. Detailed Edit

Each option is designed for a specific level of configuration change.

Quick Edit

Quick Edit is intended for fast updates to execution-related settings without changing the core structure of the test.

Following can be edited in Quick Edit:

1. Load configuration values (such as users, duration, ramp-up behavior)

2. Generator and execution-related configurations

3. Test run parameters that affect how the test executes

Once changes are saved, the test configuration is updated and ready for execution.

Detailed Edit

Detailed Edit is used when you need to modify the test definition itself.

Following can be edited in Detailed Edit:

1. Test setup and structure

2. Script or scenario selection

3. UI automation configuration (add, remove, or update)

4. Any advanced configuration defined during test creation

Selecting Detailed Edit redirects you back to the full test creation flow, with all previously configured values pre-filled. After making changes, the test can be updated and saved.

Updating the Load Test

1. After completing changes in either Quick Edit or Detailed Edit:

   1. Save the updated configuration

   2. The load test is updated without creating a new test entry

2. The test can again be run manually
