DataFeeds and Clustering

[mrm-rockport]

Is there an easy way to send test data to agents at test execution time? For example, if I can load a list of data on the coordinator, how can I pass unique values to the agents, say using DataFeed.Circular()?

Hi @mrm-rockport
Overall, this type of communication may cause some delays while waiting for messages.
We recommend using Data Partition withing the cluster: https://nbomber.com/docs/cluster/data-partition
During the scenario initialization phase, each agent can receive a partition number (e.g., 1, 2, 3, …). Based on this number, you can determine the data range assigned to that agent. For example, if PartitionNumber = 1, it means that this particular agent will handle user IDs ranging from 1 to 200.

In addition, we have a task for v5.10 regarding introducing a communication in the cluster: #713
We will start working on it after the release of version v5.9, which is scheduled for the end of February.
