Summary
This post announces an increase in the core support for Visual Studio Online (VSO) Cloud-based Load Testing from 20 cores to 100 cores for a single load test run. This allows for generating up to 5 times the concurrent users compared to the previous limit. Users can specify the desired number of cores (up to 100) in the 'Run Settings' properties sheet of their load test file. It also links to related posts about load testing applications behind firewalls and using advanced diagnostics for debugging.
