[Feature Request] #28

Open jometzg opened 2 years ago

jometzg commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The customer would like to be able to run tests annually and so be able to access all of the results from previous load test runs as a basis of comparison. This needs to include the load test results and the metrics from the system under test. The concern is that the metrics from the system under test will "age out".

Describe the solution you'd like Some more documentation on the retention period of test results and the logs from the system under test and/or how to manage these across several years, so the testers can do performance comparisons across several years.

Describe alternatives you've considered You can export the JMeter results, which is good for looking at the test side, but it is not clear whether the system under test metrics can be exported before they age out.

Hi @jometzg Thanks for pointing this out. We will update our documentation. On the server side metrics, is the ask to export the snapshot of the metrics during the test duration?

Something that would allow them to either keep or export both sides - the load test results and the system under test metrics, so long term comparisons can be made.

Hi @jometzg You can compare test results from our dashboard currently. We keep client side data for 180 days and server side for 93 days.
