Analyze results

After you trigger a test run, monitor its progress and results on the Results page. This page organizes your test data into a header and a set of tabs, each giving you a different angle on the test run.

At the top of the Results view, the header displays the following information about the test run:

  • Status: The test status.

  • Test: The name and link to the test.

  • Started: When the test run started.

  • Duration: How long the test run took from start to finish.

  • Virtual Users (VUs): The maximum number of virtual users active during the test run.

  • Scenario: The scenario used for the test.

  • Project: The project name.

  • Zone: The zone where the test ran.

Overview results

The Overview tab gives you a high-level summary of the test run, including its Description and Metrics.

Metrics summary

The Metrics section giver a general overview of the test run, including the following details:

  • Transactions: Shows transactions per second, their average duration, and how many passed or failed.

  • Requests: Shows requests per second, their average duration, and how many passed or failed.

  • Throughput: Shows the average throughput per second and the total amount of data transferred during the test.

  • VU iterations: Shows how many virtual user iterations passed or failed.

Metrics charts

Below the summary, two line graphs plot metrics over the course of the test run:

  • Errors and user load: Plots the number of errors against the user load, so you can see whether spikes in errors line up with increases in active virtual users.

  • Requests duration and volume: Plots the average request duration alongside requests per second and request errors per second, so you can see how request volume and errors affect response time.

Select + Add interval above the graphs to mark a specific time range for further analysis. Check out Manage intervals to learn more.

What's next

Now that you've reviewed the test run summary, here's where you can go for more detail:

  • Values tab for granular performance metrics on transactions, pages, requests, actions, and counters.

  • Events tab to see alerts, errors, and objectives triggered during the test run.

  • SLAs tab to see whether your test met the Service Level Agreements you defined.

  • Logs tab to diagnose issues with the test run.
