Viewing the Results in Real Time

Data on load size, hits per second, round time (one run through the Agenda) and throughput (bytes per second) appear in the Chart View window, with a color legend underneath the chart. Each data point represents a 20 second slice. Data is gathered every 20 seconds and is then either averaged (for hits, round time and throughout) or summed (for load size). The graphs are all normalized to scale so they can be viewed in a single Chart View window. You can access several kinds of test details:

Right-click any data point to see actual values.

Select the Spread View tab at the top of the Results window to see the data in numerical format.

Select the Dash Board Window icon on the Console toolbar to view a quick overview of the status of the test including the following:

Select the Open Statistics icon on the Console toolbar. A Statistics tab appears in the results window. Scroll through the data and double-click a cell to drill-down to further detail.

Each of these views opens in a new tab window. Close all windows except the Default Report tab.
