Test Manager Guide
This guide describes how to keep track of the performance of the application by evaluating the test results. This guide is intended for test managers.
Logs overview
HCL OneTest™ Performance uses logs to store different types of information, which you can use to determine the reason for a test failure.
Viewing reports after a run
Reports are generated and displayed automatically after a run. Each test result begins with the name of the schedule or test, and ends with the timestamp of the run in brackets.

- Evaluating results in web analytic reports
  After the test run, evaluate the results in the web analytic reports. Web analytics collect data using new technologies thereby providing better user experience.
- Logs overview
  HCL OneTest™ Performance uses logs to store different types of information, which you can use to determine the reason for a test failure.
  - Viewing test logs
    To see a record of all the events that occurred during a test run or a schedule run, as well as the status of each verification point, open the test log for that run. You can also compare an event from the test log with the request or response in the test to view the differences between the recording and the playback of the test.
  - Viewing errors while running tests
    To view errors and other events while a test is running, use the Execution Event Console view. If problems occur in a test run, you can examine the Execution Event Console view to determine whether to stop or continue the test.
  - Viewing reports after a run
    Reports are generated and displayed automatically after a run. Each test result begins with the name of the schedule or test, and ends with the timestamp of the run in brackets.
  - Accessing reports remotely
    Before executing a schedule or test, you can enable an option so that you can access reports remotely from a web browser. When you make changes to a report, the changes are saved to the workspace where the workbench is running.
  - Exporting test logs
    To process data from a performance test in another application or to use search tools to locate text in a test log, export the test log to a text file.
  - Exporting event log
    To view all the events that occurred during the run of a test from another file, you can export this data from the Event Log panel, to an XML, CSV, or text file.
  - Exporting event console output
    To view errors and other events of a test run from another file, you can export this data from the Execution Event Console view to an XML, CSV, or text file.
  - Viewing adjustments to page response times
    To see the adjustments to page response times that are measured during a test run or a schedule run, open the test log for that run.
  - Viewing resource monitoring data
    You can analyze the performance of the computer resources, application server, or database servers by viewing the resource monitoring data in web analytics reports.
- Reports and counters
  See the description of the counters for all of the performance reports.

Viewing reports after a run

Reports are generated and displayed automatically after a run. Each test result begins with the name of the schedule or test, and ends with the timestamp of the run in brackets.

About this task

In version 8.5.1 or later, for a service test report, you can choose not to generate a report automatically after a run by clicking Window > Preferences > Test > Performance Test Reports > Service Test Reports and clearing the Functional Test Report generation after Test execution.

Procedure

In the Test Navigator, expand the project until you locate the run.
Do either of the following:
- To view the default report, double-click the run. To change the default report, Open the Default Report Preferences page. Click Window > Preferences > Test > Performance Test Reports > Default Report
- To view another report, right-click the test run, click Display Report, and then select the report to display.
  Note: You can also view reports remotely from a web browser. For information about viewing reports remotely, see Accessing reports remotely.
