Azure portal

  1. Sign in to the Azure portal by using the credentials for your Azure subscription.

  2. From the Azure portal menu or the Home page, select Create a resource.

  3. On the Marketplace page, search for and select Azure App Testing.

  4. On the Azure App Testing hub, select Azure Load Testing within the workspaces section.

  5. On the Azure Load Testing pane, select Create.

  6. On the Create a load testing resource page, enter the following information:

    Field Description
    Subscription Select the Azure subscription that you want to use for this Azure Load Testing resource.
    Resource group Select an existing resource group. Or select Create new, and then enter a unique name for the new resource group.
    Name Enter a unique name to identify your Azure Load Testing resource.
    The name can't contain special characters, such as \/""[]:|<>+=;,?*@&, or whitespace. The name can't begin with an underscore (_), and it can't end with a period (.) or a dash (-). The length must be 1 to 64 characters.
    Location Select a geographic location to host your Azure Load Testing resource.
    This location also determines where the test engines are hosted and where the test framework requests originate from.

    [!NOTE] Optionally, you can configure more details on the Tags tab. Tags are name/value pairs that enable you to categorize resources and view consolidated billing by applying the same tag to multiple resources and resource groups.

  7. After you're finished configuring the resource, select Review + Create.

  8. Review the settings you provide, and then select Create. It takes a few minutes to create the account. Wait for the portal page to display Your deployment is complete before moving on.

  9. To view the new resource, select Go to resource.

  10. Optionally, manage access to your Azure Load Testing resource.

    Azure Load Testing uses role-based access control (RBAC) to manage permissions for your resource. If you encounter this message, your account doesn't have the necessary permissions to manage tests.
