 Creating and testing a Test Plan before Load Test has been much simplified by 
allowing you to only start a selection of Thread Group, start them without 
applying Timers (thus gaining time)
 or start them using a new Validation mode. This validation mode allows you to 
start a Thread Group (without modifying it) with 1 thread, 1 iteration and 
without applying timers.
 This validation mode can be customized.
