We are doing cloud LG based Mobile API testing for different geo locations. From AWS cloudwatch, it is seen that the API is taking much less time than what is present in NeoLoad report. How to understand how much Network Latency is added for each geolocation ? Which value we should look into from the report ?

View originalHello, to get an idea of the network latency you should compare the average response time and the average time to first byte (TTFB). Basically the AvgRespTime - AverageTTFB value should provide you the network latency.
When there’s no network latency both metrics are the same.
Hello
For the same GeoLoad test, we checked some AWS request IDs in API Gateway Log to understand more about the response time. But in NeoLoad report, for every request ID, the time is 1 sec or 2 sec later than that of API Gateway. We want to know from NeoLoad report at what timestamp the request got generated before reaching to API Gateway. If the Neoload report is giving the request generation time, then the timestamp should be prior to API GW timestamp, which is not the case here. Can you please help how we can get request generation time from NeoLoad report ?

Hello, i’m confused with your table report. NeoLoad provides response time of request execution but in your table it’s absolute time and not duration time. From where did you get that “request time in NeoLoad”?
For instance I would expect to check the average response time in the Values tab in NeoLoad results section. Then compare it to the TTFB average response time to get the network latency.
I’m not sure to understand where your request times (API or NeoLoad) are coming from.
