Recently upgraded the WPT server and agents. Observed that on using the API from a script , the tests show a longer load time than the private instances (which are directly submitted from WebPageTest UI on the server).
Any inputs on this
It has to come down to a different set of options when using the UI vs the API because the UI goes through the API to submit tests. Some basic things to check:
- Same test location?
- Same browser?
- Same Connectivity?
- Test configured to wait until onload or fully loaded?
