Overview

The Task Worker workload is designed for 2(v)CPU environments, offering a well-balanced intensive workload that smoothly stresses the system, resulting in increased CPU, RAM, and IO usage.

The Task Worker profile is included out of the box for new Login Enterprise deployments. For users upgrading from previous versions, ensure to refer to our GitHub repository for the latest scripts and updates.

For a breakdown of the steps completed as part of the Task Worker workload, see the attached PDF under Additional resources.

Using the Workload

To utilize the workload effectively, follow these steps:

Creating an Application Group

  • Create an application group where a set of applications will be defined in a specific order with enabled specific application properties.
    • Each application within the group should be imported separately.
  • Add the application group to a test.

This process can also be directly integrated into a test environment.

Adding Applications to the Group

Each application is represented as a separate script file (.cs file). For each script file:

  1. Create the application with the specified type and target noted at the beginning of the file.
  2. Upload the script file to the application.

Configuring the Application Group

Arrange the applications within the application group according to the specified order and properties as defined in the table below.
