Averaging results

[Joshua Auerbach <jo...@dealer.com>]

I tried looking for information on this in the user manual, list 
archive, etc. and have not found anything, so if anyone can help me out 
it would be great.  What I am trying to do is instead of recording every 
sample I want to record an average of all samples processed within n 
seconds, i.e. instead of recording every sample, I want and entry to be 
recorded every n seconds that contains the average of all results wihin 
that interval.  If this is not possible an acceptable substitue would be 
to record after n samples an average of those n samples.  This is 
desired because we are attempting to load test an application in 
development, but the number of samples we are generating makes the graph 
far to cluttered and we want to condense it.

I don't think there's anything directly useful.

But have you looked at:

http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#Generate_Summary_Results

You would need to extract the information from the log file and
reformat it before using it further.

Also, the Aggregate Listener will aggregate results for each sample
label - if you can choose suitable labels, that might help.

It would not be impossible to write a new Listener to do what you want.
[But would you want to summarise all samplers, or summarise separately
for samplers with a particular label? There may be other choices to
make.]

Or maybe the Summariser could be enhanced to optionally write to a file.

Otherwise, I think you'll need to write some kind of script to
post-process the JTL file. Probably easiest if this is saved as CSV.
