Template
Design a load test for {system_under_test} with expected traffic: {traffic_expectations}. Step 1: Define realistic scenarios from the traffic expectations: user journeys, request mix percentages, and think times; reject uniform request patterns that do not match reality. Step 2: Define the load profiles: baseline, expected peak, 2x peak, and a soak duration for leak detection. Step 3: Specify pass/fail criteria per profile: latency percentiles (p50/p95/p99), error rate ceilings, and resource saturation limits. Step 4: Identify test-environment gaps versus production (data volume, cache warmth, downstream mocks) and how each gap biases results. Step 5: Define the analysis: what a failure at each profile indicates and the follow-up investigation for each.
