I’m doing load test for an API and running it for 1 minute with below code

```auto
"setUp(scn.inject(rampUsers(10) over (0))).protocols(httpConf)"

```

```auto

```

```auto
but I see the the request count as 1500 ..What is the formula to calculate the request count ? 

```

Request count depends on how you’ve crafted your scenarios and how many requests each virtual user performs during its journey.
