How to Use Performance Testing Reports to Improve Performance

1. Statistics Summary

• Maximum running concurrent users
• Total throughput
• Average throughput
• Average hits per second
• HTTP responses summary

2. Transactions summary

• Total passed transactions
• Total failed transactions

3. HTTP responses summary

• The total amount of HTTP 2XX responses
• The total amount of HTTP 4XX responses
• The total amount of HTTP 5XX responses

4. Running concurrent users graph

5. Response times graph

• The reports contain metrics and statistics described above, a list of issues (with description and links to the statistics section) that occurred during test execution, and a general conclusion about the application's performance.
• The testing team prepares the reports after each iteration of the performance script execution and sends them to the Customer.
