you're right, there probably needs to be a GUI component for creating the report settings. the primary difference between the simple data writer and report components is the reports would be for statistics.
for example, say an user has an overnight automation process that hits a website. if the user wants to generate a detailed report of the failures by HTTP response codes, we currently don't support that. if the user wants to those stats to be in a pie chart, we also don't support that. I have a need for report automation, so I think it "might" be a good idea to have them be separate type of components like StatisticalReport components. peter On 8/4/05, sebb <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > There surely still needs to be a GUI to configure the Reporter? > > There is already a Listener that creates output to disk only - Simple > Data Writer. > > Would it not be simpler to extend the existing structure with new or > amended Listeners that write to disk rather than the screen? > > Not that I mind there being a Reporter component. > > S. > On 04/08/05, Peter Lin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hey sebb, > > > > mike and I were just chatting about some enhancements to JMeter.
