Dear JMeter Users and Zdxu:
Here is more than a hint. Here are excruciatingly detailed instruction copied
from my company's internal documentation for working with JMeter.
Sincerely yours,
Kyle
Saving Listener results
Applies To
JMeter 2.0.1
JMeter 2.0.2
Problem
You want to save Listener results from running a test plan and look at them
later. Also, you want to remove Listener elements that display results in the
GUI, because they make the test plan run slower.
Solution
JMeter uses different Listener elements to display different kinds of results,
but can record results for all Listener elements in one file. Specifying a file
name in any one Listener saves all data for all Listener types. JMeter uses a
file extension of .jtl for result files, regardless of whether the internal
file format is CSV or XML.
1. Set JMeter to record results in XML format:
a. In the C:\jakarta-jmeter-2.0.2\bin directory, open the
jmeter.properties file.
b. Change the value of the output format to XML:
jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=xml
Warning If the output format is "csv", the solution will not work.
Note Output format is different than output file extension. You can
save results in either CSV or XML output format in a file with the standard
".jtl" extension. This is useful because JMeter uses ".jtl" as the default
extension for result files.
2. In the test plan, add a Listener of type Simple Data Writer and specify
a file name. A Simple Data Writer records results only to a file. It does not
display data in the GUI.
Example 1: Results.jtl
Example 2: C:\MyResults\Results.jtl
Note By default, results are saved in the C:\jakarta-jmeter-2.0.2\bin
directory. Specify a fully qualified path if you want to save the results file
in another directory.
3. Remove Listeners that display data in the GUI from the test plan.
4. Run the test plan.
5. To display recorded results in a Listener:
a. Add the Listener to the test plan, such as Aggregate Report.
b. In the Filename text box, specify the file.
Example: Results.jtl
c. Press Enter.
The Listener displays results recorded in the file.
Note The results file does not save the Request tab page and Response data
tab page information in the View Results Tree listener.

Subject: How to store the result into a file and re-open it?
Anyone give me some hint?
Some listener could store the result, text and graphics into a file, but how
to open it if I send these files to another JMeter user?
