Steps #3 and 4 are painstaking and can be automated by Excel macros - however, this is beyond my abilities at the moment: - 1. First, generate delimited file for import into Excel. + 1. First, generate delimited file for import into Excel. I use Perl to parse the XML logs and generate a delimited file for import into Excel.

A normal log entry line logs one HTTP 'sampler' operation. For eg: + {{{ <sampleResult ... time="156" ... /> }}} + However, when the opertion had a HTTP redirect (HTTP status code 302), JMeter records the redirects as nested {{{<sampleResult>}}} elements -- these which still occur on the same line as the log entry: {{{<sampleResult ... time="2750"> <sampleResult ... time="2468" ... /> <sampleResult time="141" .../> <sampleResult ... time="141" .../> </sampleResult> }}} - - However, when the opertion had a HTTP redirect (HTTP status code 302), JMeter records the redirects as nested {{{<sampleResult>}}} elements -- these which still occur on the same line as the log entry: - {{{<sampleResult ... time="2750"> <sampleResult ... time="2468" ... /> <sampleResult time="141" .../> <sampleResult ... time="141" .../> </sampleResult> - }}} The outermost {{{<sampleResult>}}} element has time = 2750 milliseconds. This is the sum of times of the nested redirect elements. We are only interested in the data contained in the outermost element. Hence the regular expression uses the non-greedy pattern match operator ( {{{.*?}}} or {{{.+?}}}) to ignore the latter {{{<sampleResult>}}} elements. - On the other hand, Excel 2002 can directly import JMeter XML format logs.

Convert Timestamps to Excel Format Once the data is in Excel, I convert the timestamp column from Jmeter's Java timestamp format (base year 1970) to the Excel format (base year 1900 or 1904 depending on the Excel version and underlying OS) using this following formula.
