About this task

After you have validated your individual tests and added them to a schedule, you are ready to deploy the schedule and run the virtual users on remote computers. By using remote computers, you can multiply the number of virtual users to simulate a real work load. During the run, you can monitor the behavior of each virtual user.

When the test is finished, you can view the performance report to help locate bottlenecks in your SAP environment.
