Is there an existing request for this feature?

Is your feature request related to a problem?

"I would like to request a feature that enables running the complete workflow in parallel while ensuring that the multiple requests in the folder are executed sequentially.

Currently each requests in the folder will be executed parallelly.

Describe the solution you'd like

Basically should supports the sequential execution of requests within each thread group.

This feature would greatly enhance the performance testing capabilities by allowing the execution of the entire workflow to be optimized for parallel execution."

@ashwinichannaveerappa Currently, this is precisely what is happening with the performance testing feature. If I have understood this correctly you want a collection's request to run in a sequential manner by each Virtual user. However multiple Virtual users will run this in parallel hence testing the workflows in parallel and not just the individual requests.

Let me know what you think.

@malvikach yeah I would like to run collections requests in a sequential manner by each virtual user. Multiple Virtual users will run this in parallel hence testing the workflows in Parallel.
