What is coordinated omission in load testing?
- 1Two load generators run without sharing the same results
- 2The test leaves out endpoints that need authentication
- 3The tool waits for slow responses and under-reports latency
Show the answer
Correct answer: The tool waits for slow responses and under-reports latency
Explanation
If the generator only sends the next request after a reply, slow periods produce fewer samples and look better than reality. Arrival-rate executors avoid it.
