Azure Load Testing
An Azure service that enables developers and testers to generate insights on how to improve the performance, scalability, and capacity usage of their application
I have the same issue. I cannot figure out why that is.
Azure Load Test dashboard does not show the correct virtual user

Hi everyone,
I created a load test using a JMeter script and uploaded it to Azure Load Testing. I'm using a single test user credential to simulate the tests, and both the number of threads and the ramp-up time are parameterized.
However, I'm encountering an issue. In the Azure Load Testing dashboard, it shows only 1 virtual user, even though I set 5 threads in the configuration. From what I understand, virtual users should correspond to the number of threads, so I expected to see 5 users in the dashboard.
5 (Total virtual users) = 5 (virtual users in the JMX file) * 1 (number of test engine instances).
Can anyone help me understand why only 1 user is being displayed and what might be causing this issue?
I've shared screenshots of the dashboard, JMeter configuration, and Azure Load Test configuration for reference.
Dashboard shows only 1 virtual user
Jmeter thread group - azure load env config
Thank you!

2025-04-28T17:46:48.8+00:00 I found the answer. 1 VU in the metrics means that during the given period, only 1 user was sending requests. This means responses are so fast that the first VU ends before the second VU (thread) is created.
You can check the test artefacts under 'Copy artifacts' and check the results folder CSV file.
How to
You can use Azure Storage Explorer or AzCopy.
