Hi everybody.
I'm trying to load test a membership process. I use Gmail for the email verification part ( gmail allows to filter emails to an inbox by doing something like "yourEmail+n@gmail.com", so "+n" is the filter; all my registered users in the platform use the following structure for email "cms.qa.test.user+n@gmail.com", so I can have only one master inbox for all the users). What happens is when load testing Gmail blocks the requests because it looks at them like bots.
have you come to a similar situation? Do you know how can I workaround this email verification part?
Thank you all

Hello Gabriel,
I find this quite expected behavior when load testing against Gmail to have the requests blocked.
In order to accomplish this scenario you will have to be in control of the mail server you are using.
