# 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

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.perfagents.com/user-guide/load-test-orchestration/edit-load-test.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
