Using advanced diagnostics to debug issues in Cloud Load Test.
Feb 5, 2015Prashasti Gupta

Summary
Introduces advanced agent diagnostics for Cloud Load Test (CLT) to facilitate debugging. This feature allows users to collect logs (e.g., trace statements, packet captures via Wireshark) and other files from test agents and download them from an Azure Blob. It details how to use trace statements in unit tests, load test plugins, and web test plugins, and how to copy files to a designated 'Result Directory' on the agent. The post also explains how to access these collected files from blob storage using REST APIs and provides code examples for downloading them. It notes a 100MB size limit per agent for collected data.
