WAPT User Interface
Log and Report Settings
Click on Log and Report Settings folder in Navigation Pane. Log and Report Settings will be displayed in the right pane.
Here you can define options for saving log files and test results.
You can set WAPT to create full logs or error logs.
Log files will help you know what occurred during test run.
Full log is a comprehensive log of WAPT test run that includes information on all requests, responses,
redirects and returned HTML code.
Error log contains page requests and responses for which an error occurred during the test. In other
words, error log contains those requests for which HTTP reply code is not equal to 200 (OK).
Log level of detail: Select the type of log file that will be created during test run.
Disable: No log files will be created.
Errors: For each virtual user participated in the test, Error log file will be
created.
Full: For each user profile participated in the test, Full log file will be
created. Full logs are created for the first user of each profile.
For other users, WAPT
will create error logs.
Save logs to: Here you can change the default location for created log files.
You can adjust WAPT to save test results in CSV
format and import them later, any time you wish to Microsoft Excel.
Save results to: Enables to save test results in CSV format in required location.
If you enable this option, then for each user profile, a file with test results will be created.
You can change the default location for CSV files.
Results file name pattern: It is the default pattern, which will
be used to generate names of CSV files with test results. Click
the Edit... button to modify
this pattern.
Test run comment: Here you can enter your comment for current
test run. This comment will be displayed in HTML
Report and Summary Report.
HTML report dimension: Here you can specify the number of columns that will be
used in some tables of HTML Report and Summary Report.
The whole test duration interval will be divided into the
number of intervals equal to HTML report dimension value.
The program will calculate the averaged data through these intervals and show it
in HTML Report and Summary Report.
Refreshing time: Here you can specify time period (in seconds) after which
the program will refresh the statistics of gathered data and refresh generated
graphs and reports. This will be done regularly during test run.
Default value of Refreshing time is 10 seconds. You cannot make this value less than 10;
you can only increase it.
If graphs generated during test run exhibit sharp fluctuations, then most probably the
Refreshing time value is too small, and tested server cannot execute an
adequate number of requests during this time.
You should increase the Refreshing time value to get correct results.
Note that the less is Refreshing time, the more resources of test machine will be
required.
Timing: Select desired timing unit (seconds, minutes or hours)
that will be used in tests. Depending on this option, the program will measure the number of
pages/hits either per second, or minute, or hour.
