How can additional context information be sent to Dynatrace during a load test?

The custom event API is specifically designed to send additional context information to Dynatrace during load tests. This API allows you to enrich the telemetry data sent to Dynatrace with custom metrics and events that are relevant to your specific testing scenarios. By using this API, you can capture important information that may not be automatically tracked by Dynatrace, ensuring that your load testing results are comprehensive and meaningful. This contextual information can include details such as the type of load test, specific parameters, or unique events that may impact application performance.

Utilizing the custom event API is particularly beneficial during load tests, as it helps provide deeper insights and a more nuanced understanding of how your application behaves under load. This can facilitate better troubleshooting and performance optimization efforts in the long run.
