Start Scenario | Instructs Controller to initialize the Vusers and distribute them to their designated load generators, where they begin running their Vuser scripts. Note: Controller begins running the scenario according to the start time defined in the scenario schedule. We do not recommend changing the Time/Date and Time Zone settings on Controller and load generators during the load test run.
Stop Stop Now | Terminates the scenario. The behavior depends on your selection in the Tools > Options > Runtime Settings tab: If you selected Stop immediately, all Vusers in the scenario move to the Exiting status. If you selected Wait for the current iteration to end before exiting, or Wait for the current action to end before exiting, the button text changes to Stop Now and the Vusers status changes to Gradual Exiting. To stop the Vusers immediately, click Stop Now. For more information about the runtime settings options, see Runtime Settings tab.
