Error - Input string was not in a correct on the execution of multi user performance test by using PerSDK

(0) ShareShare

I'm trying to execute the multi user test by using perfSDK but it is getting failed on the Client object initialization and giving following error:

Initialization method MS.Dynamics.Performance.Application.TaskRecorder.pt_dmVM_testBase.TestSetup threw exception. System.FormatException: System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format. 

Error is thrown when it try to initialize DispatchedClient object from DispatchedClientHelper.GetClient(). It is failing on the authentication objects. But all the require information is filled in  ConfigurationEnvoirnment file.

following is the Error Stack:

System.Text.StringBuilder.FormatError()
System.Text.StringBuilder.AppendFormatHelper(IFormatProvider provider, String format, ParamsArray args)
System.String.FormatHelper(IFormatProvider provider, String format, ParamsArray args)
MS.Dynamics.TestTools.UIHelpers.Core.DispatchedClientHelper.GenerateAuthenticators()
MS.Dynamics.TestTools.UIHelpers.Core.DispatchedClientHelper.get_Authenticators()
MS.Dynamics.TestTools.UIHelpers.Core.DispatchedClientHelper.GetNextAuthenticator()
MS.Dynamics.TestTools.UIHelpers.Core.DispatchedClientHelper.GetClient()
MS.Dynamics.Performance.Application.TaskRecorder.pt_dmVM_testBase.TestSetup() in K:\PerfSDK\PerfSDKLocalDirectory\SampleProject\PerfSDKSample\Generated\pt_dmVM_testBase.cs: line 44

I have perform all the configuration steps define in the following links:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/fin-ops-core/dev-itpro/perf-test/single-user-test-perf-sdk

learn.microsoft.com/.../perfsdk-multi-user-testing

We have also matched all the configuration with the already configured project but the error is still there.

    Issue got resolve by making change in the config file.

    First "Userformat" tag values was like this.

    <ConfigurationSpecificDetails Key="UserFormat" Value="ptusers{0}@{Tenant}" />

    Then i replace {Tenant} with acctual tenant domain value "xxxxx.com", it start working.

    Hi Muhammad,

    It's difficult for me to find the root cause of the error just from your description, as we can't see your configuration in your environment. But have you checked these prerequisites for running multi-user tests with the Performance SDK? Or have you tried restarting VS and try again? You could also wait and see if others on the forum who have the similar experiences to share.
