Hello,
When I create users, I want them all to have the same value when creating a population.
Say I have 50 users and want them all to be in 1 population. The population is created but the parameters are all the same. If I want to change the WAN Emulations or the Handle cache I have to update each VU one by one.
Is there a faster way to assign the same value to more than just one VU in the populations tab?
There's no quick way to modify globally these settings on the population tab. But it's unusual to have so many virtual user profiles under one single population.
Do you really want to run so many profiles at the same time and within the same population?
Did you find this useful ?

What would be the best practice. I want to use different Virtual Users for each test. Or is it better to just have one virtual user with different variables?
I'm not sure to understand your goal. Usually you have few virtual user profiles with different behavior for each that you would like to test concurrently.
In that case those virtual user profiles could belong to the same population or different ones depending on the load policy you would like to apply for each.
Now if you would like to run some tests with few virtual user profiles and not all at the same time, the best is to create different populations and scenarios and select the one that you would like to run.
Having different populations allow more flexibility regarding the different load policy and eventually the load generators that you would like to use with each population.
Does it make sense to you?
