Answer / goverdhan umasankar
when ever you are going to execute more than one
script/scenario in controller we will go for group by
schedule option. in this is type each scenarios contains
atleast one unique parameter type then group by scenario
option is used. the second one is scenario. if u want to
execute a single script or mulutiple scripts with unique
parameter then one can use scenario option.

Answer / shyam
Group By option is used when there are multiple groups and each group need to be executed in customized sequence.
For ex: Group1: Login, Group2: Cancel Flights, Group3: Find Flights, Group4: Cancel Flights, Group5: Logout
We can set execution sequence as for example:
Login
Cancel flights
Logout
login
find flights
cancel Here execution happens in the sequence we had set
Where as in Scenario based, all the scripts are executed concurrently

Answer / uday
If you choose "Scenario" in scheduled by in a scenario, then
the schedule applies to all the groups concurrently.
When we schedule a scenario with multiple groups, then the
load is distributed proportionately among the groups.
Ex: if 2 groups and 1st group assigned 10 users and 2nd
group assigned 20 users, so total is 30. If we have to run a
scenario with 20 users, then they will distribute the load
like group 1->8 and group 2 ->12
If you choose "group", for each group we can set a schedule.

Group: is a Set(or number) of vusers on a VUscript or set of
VUscripts
Scenario: Events that occur during a load test session, #of
Vusers, Actions that they perform(VuScripts), and machines
on which they emulate load through(LoadGens)
