What tools does this skill require?

This skill utilizes the load-balancer-tester plugin and requires access to system tools like Bash, Grep, and Glob for log analysis and command execution.

Does it support sticky session verification?

Yes, it includes specific tests to ensure that session affinity (sticky sessions) is working correctly so users stay connected to the same backend server.

How does this skill test for server failures?

The skill simulates backend server unavailability and monitors if the load balancer correctly redirects traffic to the remaining healthy instances without downtime.

What is the primary purpose of the Load Balancer Tester skill?

It is designed to automate the testing of load balancing configurations, specifically checking for even traffic distribution, failover reliability, and session persistence.
