If you’ve ever started a project to improve the load times for your website, web app, or mobile app, your heart is in the right place — but your efforts might not be.

Atomic User Journeys

The temptation with synthetic user journeys is to create a single, long running journey that checks everything in one go and run it every 5 minutes. This may sound like a good idea because one journey is cheaper than five or because there’s fewer scripts to maintain, but it will make your life much harder and is likely to still cost as much due to the total time it takes to run. Therefore a good approach to user journey monitoring is to create atomic journeys.
