Load zones

You can run your tests from the following load zones.

Syntax to set load zones

Declare load zones in the options.ext.loadimpact.distribution object.

Each load zone has an object with a custom label for the key. Load zones have two properties:

• loadZone, a string whose value must be one of the load zones, as listed in the next section.
• percent, an integer declaring the percentage of the load that runs from the load zone.

The sum of the percentages must equal 100.

This example distributes load across two load zones, Ashburn and Dublin.

JavaScript Copy

export const options = {
  ext: {
    loadimpact: {
      distribution: {
        distributionLabel1: { loadZone: 'amazon:us:ashburn', percent: 50 },
        distributionLabel2: { loadZone: 'amazon:ie:dublin', percent: 50 },
      },
    },
  },
};

You can access the label of the load zone as an environment variable.
