Graph Results

JMeter – Graph Results

The Graph Results Listener in JMeter creates a graph between the response time (measured in milliseconds) and the total time. The lines on the graph represent the number of samples per minute (throughput), the average response time (Mean), the median response time (Median), the variation in response time (Variance), and the response time for each individual request ( Data). The condensed data is shown at the bottom of the chart.JMeter - Graph Results

How are ‘Graph Results’ added?

As you do the following:

  • Choose the right element for the listener you want to add.
  • Plan of Testing Thread Group Controller Sampler
  • Do right-click on the component.
  • Place your cursor over ‘Add’.
  • Place your pointer above “Listener”
  • Select ‘Graph Results’

Scope: Results in Graphs Each level, including sample, transaction, thread, and test plan levels, can add a listener. Only the range is shown on the chart. If a listener is added below a sample, only the main sample graph lines are displayed.

Will display the graph for all samplers under that specific transaction driver if added under a transaction level. The graph is provided for all requests covered by the test plan when a graph result listener is added at the test plan level.

Usage: This listener provides high-level information that should only be used as a summary. Since the number of samples also includes the number of transaction handlers, the number of requests cannot be precisely quantified. This listener is made worse by the lack of a filter option.

It is not recommended to leave this listener enabled during test execution. By examining the log file, you can evaluate the performance graph after the test.
