    { duration: '3m', target: 20 },
    { duration: '1m', target: 0 },
  ],
  thresholds: {
    http_req_failed: ['rate<0.02'], // http errors should be less than 2%
    http_req_duration: ['p(95)<2000'], // 95% requests should be below 2s
  },
  ext: {
    loadimpact: {
      distribution: {

Notes:
If you have enabled Cloudflare security features to protect your website, such as WAF, Bots , you had better to disable them first. Else you will get failed error on your K6 test page since CloudFlare will send out JS Challenge to fight back to those suspicious traffic.
