Hi @hassy /Team,

I have written a simple artillery script where i have taken query params by appending these to URL with ? and when i running this script , its running for more than 1 hour even after defined duration as 200 sec.

Could you please explain why its happening ?

config:
  payload:
    path: "filters.csv"
    fields:
      - "filter"
    loadAll: true
    skipHeader: true
    name: symb
 
  target: "https://qa.test.com"
  phases:
    - duration: 200
      arrivalRate: 1
 
scenarios:
  - name: "Performance Testing For test API"  
    flow:
      - loop:
        - get:
            url: '/test-data/testing-data/?{{ $testElement.filter }}'
            headers:
              appkey: 'TestAppkey'
        over: symb         
after:
  flow:
    - log: "Invalidate token"
    - log: "token is {{ token }}"

hi @shiv-vsics 👋 You don't seem to have a loop count set which will cause the loop to run indefinitely. Add a count property with the number of iterations you need - https://www.artillery.io/docs/reference/engines/http#looping-through-a-number-of-requests

@hassy I have few more script where i havent used count property, but those are running fine with these scripts.

Hi @shiv-vsics , it seems you set over instead of count, but if your CSV is quite large, then each VU will loop over the entire CSV before completing. It's likely that the CSV is large and they keep running because of that?

Yes correct, MY CSV file is large.

its resolved though after applying count. Thank you :)
