I thought I'd run this by people before adding it to Bugzilla.
When saving collected data to a file, it would be nice if the
user could specify a label to be added to each sample. (This is
distinct from the current "label" attribute in the <sampleResult>
element. A good name for the new one might be "userLabel".)
The way I envision this working is:
- add another text field to the FilePanel
- if the field is non-empty during a test run, add its contents
as an attribute to each <sampleResult> collected
Motivation: I'd like to do a number of test runs (different
numbers of threads, loop counts, etc.), and read all the results
into one big spreadsheet, database, or whatever; thus, I need to
have each sample labelled with which test run it belongs to. The
only way to keep track of that now is to write the results of
each test run to a different file. That's a pain because:
- it leads to file management problems
- to use the data, I just have to turn it into my proposed
form anyway
Thoughts?
