Feature request: Restart button #140

Open byteit101 opened 1 month ago

byteit101 commented 1 month ago

I am using OST for wifi testing, and as such, I rerun the tests constantly. It would be nice if the end screen had a one-click "redo" or "restart" button, instead of the current process of refreshing the page and then clicking "Start" again.

Refreshing the page is better for performance reasons. Some browsers hold test data in memory, and a page refresh will release the used memory.

Sure, but it seems pretty easy to add a button that would do something like:

sessionStorage.setItem("autorun", true);
window.location.reload();

and then the onload code would add

if (sessionStorage.getItem("autorun")) {
    sessionStorage.setItem("autorun", false);
   // start benchmark
}

Great idea! I'll give it a try soon. Thanks!
