Use actionable insights to troubleshoot load test results (Preview)

In this article, you learn how to use AI-powered actionable insights in Azure Load Testing to identify and troubleshoot performance issues in your application. This feature analyzes your test run data using AI to highlight key issues—such as latency spikes, throughput drops, or backend resource bottlenecks—and provides recommended next steps.

You can view actionable insights directly in the test run dashboard after your test completes.

Prerequisites

View actionable insights for a test run

To view actionable insights for a completed test:

  1. In the Azure portal, go to your Azure Load Testing resource.

  2. Select Tests, and choose the relevant test run.

  3. Azure Load Testing generates actionable insights on demand. If you're visiting the test run dashboard for the first time, expand the AI summary and insights section, and select Generate insights.

Tip

For the best insights, configure server-side metrics. The AI engine correlates client-side and server-side data to generate more accurate diagnostics and recommendations.

  1. The service generates insights and displays a summary and key insights in the same section. To explore further, select View detailed insights.

Caution

AI-generated insights might not always be accurate. We recommend reviewing the evidence and validating with your application’s telemetry
