So, I am using JMeter's throughput shaping timer to test the performance of our REST Server. I noticed a few things i did not expect.
First of all my setup details :
1)JMeter Version : 3.0 r1743807
2)JMX file : DropBox Link
Now , my questions :
1)The throughput shaping timer is configured to run for 60 seconds(100rps - 30 secs, 200 rps - next 30 secs). But the actual test runs only for 3 seconds as shown below. Why?
2) As per the plan the number of requests per second should go from 100 - 200. But here it seems to decrease , as in above.
3)As per this plugin's documentation , the number of thread groups = desired requests per second * server response time / 1000 . Is it because how this plugin internally works or is it a simple logic i am missing?
