📊 Configuration Summary

System	CSV File	Students	Indices	Workers	Total Load
PC 1	2025-12-15T10-49-08_01.csv	50	0-49	20	50 students
PC 2	2025-12-15T10-59-02_03.csv	50	0-49	20	50 students
PC 3	2025-12-15T11-06-37_05.csv	50	0-49	20	50 students
Total	3 CSVs	150	-	60	150 students

---

🔧 Command Breakdown

• --csv: CSV file path
• --start 0: Start from first student (index 0)
• --end 50: End at 50th student (exclusive, so indices 0-49)
• --workers 20: 20 concurrent browsers per system
• --headless: Run in headless mode
• --metrics-interval 10: Print metrics every 10 students
• --url (optional): Custom frontend URL

---

🚀 Execution Steps

1. On PC 1: Run the PC 1 command
2. On PC 2: Run the PC 2 command
3. On PC 3: Run the PC 3 command
4. Monitor: Each system will print real-time metrics

---

📈 Expected Results

• Total Students: 150 (50 per system)
• Concurrent Browsers: 60 total (20 per system)
• Load Distribution: Evenly distributed across 3 systems
• Execution Time: ~20-40 minutes per system (depending on performance)

---

💡 Tips

1. Start all systems simultaneously for maximum load
2. Monitor each system for real-time metrics
3. Check reports in reports/load_tests/ after completion
4. Use --url if testing against different environments
