Hi,
I use aggregate graph and summary results to collect raw data and present
the relevant numbers - how long the test lasted, how many requests, the
throughput, the median value, the 90% line, std. deviation - I personally
avoid the average resp. time and max values and go for median instead and
the 90th percentile.
For graphing, consider external tools. Excel is simple and fast for small
amounts of data when you're a beginner. If the application performs stable,
15 min of test are just as relevant as the whole period of the test (and
that contains about as much data as Excel can handle). I'm interested first
of all in throughput over time and response times over time (preferably the
evolution of the 90 percentile over time). You can do that with Excel by
yourself once or twice - in the long term you need something that does
things automatically and that's a different story.
Of course, what you need depends a lot on your requirements (how the
application meets or doesn't meet the requirements should result from the
graph rather than from the explanation), what the application does, and how
relevant is each graph to the test and to the workload simulated and they
also depend on who reads these reports in the end.
Hope the quick fix works for you and good luck!
