Load Testing · Middle · Question 7 of 76
What is coordinated omission?
- 1The server drops requests on purpose to keep latency low for others
- 2Several load generators send the same request at exactly the same time
- 3A tool waits for slow responses, so it skips requests and underreports latency
Show the answer
Correct answer: A tool waits for slow responses, so it skips requests and underreports latency
Explanation
If a closed-loop tool is blocked by a 2 s stall, the requests it would have sent during that stall are never measured. Percentiles look much better than users experienced.
