Load Testing · Middle · Question 33 of 76
All load comes from one IP address through a load balancer with sticky sessions. What can go wrong?
- 1The test can't run, because sticky sessions need cookies
- 2All traffic can land on one backend, so the others sit idle
- 3The load balancer will spread requests better than in prod
Show the answer
Correct answer: All traffic can land on one backend, so the others sit idle
Explanation
IP-based stickiness or rate limits per IP behave differently than with real, varied clients. Use several generators or IPs, or check the LB settings.
