that's definitely an area where loadrunner shines in my opinion. they produce pretty charts and graphs that managers love. Even though I've added the ability to save listeners and added the distribution graph, honestly jmeter doesn't look nearly as pretty. It's not java's fault either, the developer prefer to work on functionality and making jmeter solid.
things like making jmeter prettier aren't high on the list of things to do. You can always use excel to generate charts, but some people prefer to pay 20K+ for a site license. I don't know what it costs today, but one of the division where I work has a license for 3 workstations. I was told it was over 20K, but you should check with mercury directly to get a quote. It's definitely not cheap. peter On Fri, 26 Nov 2004 07:39:25 +0000 (GMT), Paul Keeble <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It has been used by a very large organisation that looks after the UK's > health. > That's a 4 million user organisation!
