point out any corrections that are needed, or desired.

and changing, some of the comments near the bottom) to handle a suite of
tests. The rest of what I pasted from that file is for transforming the

Hi All,
I just started looknig at WebTest yesterday and I have to say that so
far I am very impressed. There seems to be a lot of flexibility here
and it's very well done.
I have been able to create some simple tests and run them in the
command line. I just figured out how to alter the config properties
to output the results as XML, but I need to know what I can do with
those..
It looks like there are some HTML reporting capabilities but I can't
figure out how to make it work... and there's a screenshot of a nice
looking results viewer on the wiki, but I can't find where it can be
downloaded...
Can someone point me in the right direction for getting some easy to
understand results out of this? The command line thing just doesn't
do it for me.
Thanks!!
Lindsay
