Measures reported by LSWebExpanzTest

Using Lync, service users can search the address book for other users in their organization. They can also add email addresses and distribution lists to their Contacts lists. Instant messages can be sent to individual members of a distribution list or the entire distribution list. Distribution lists can be expanded to see the individual members if there are 100 or fewer individual members (regardless of the members' presence or sign-in status).

This test monitors the Distribution list and reports the time taken to process the requests, the number of requests that passed user input validation and the rate at which the AD requests time out. This way, administrators may oversee the effectiveness of the distribution list and if there are too many timed out requests, they can easily figure out the problematic list and rectify the same before users start complaining!

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Soap_exception Indicates the rate at which SOAP exceptions occurred. Exceptions/Sec  
ValidUserReq Indicates the number of requests that passed user input validation. Number  
TimedOutADReq Indicates the rate at which Active Directory requests timed out. Requests/Sec
