medium📝 Debug Q14 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand the problem context
The script aims for 50 users but only 10 appear. This suggests a configuration or environment issue.Step 2: Evaluate options for cause
A syntax error would likely stop the script entirely, not partially simulate users. System crash would stop all users. Network speed does not limit user count. Configuration limiting users to 10 fits best.Final Answer:
The load testing tool is configured to limit users to 10 -> Option AQuick Check:
User count limited by tool config = cause [OK]
Quick Trick: Check tool user limit settings if fewer users simulated [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Blaming syntax errors without checking config
- Assuming system crash without error logs
- Confusing network speed with user count
