How to save result data (related to the jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format property)?

Dear JMeter users:

I am using the latest jmeter 2.9, and want to save the result data to
a CSV file? However, I cannot find a UI item on version 2.9's GUI
to perform this action. (I am currently following the user manual
to build a web test plan:
http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/build-web-test-plan.html)

I browsed the JMeter manual and find this action is related to
the "jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format" property, which has
the default value "CSV".

Here is a related fixed bug report, saying the default format has been
changed to CSV: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54412

However, I just cannot find any UI item on
the GUI that can 'trigger' this property. I could only find menu items
like "Save Screen As Image" or "Save Test Plan".

Could anyone kindly give some hints?

Thanks a lot

-Sai

Thanks a lot, Mark and Sebb. Now, I am clear about the effect of this
configuration option.

Re: How to save result data (related to the jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format property)?

My understanding is as follows:

When running from the command line and passing a -l param for the results
output - that file writing is directed according to the jmeter.properties
saveservice specific properties.

In addition - (take a close look at most of the GUI for listeners) via the
'Configure' button (per listener), you will see checkbox options that
correlate to all of the saveservice properties.

In short, there are a number of ways to instruct JMeter to write results
(including multiple, simultaneous results files).

I hope that helps.

Mark

Hi Charlie,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Sorry that I might not describe my problem super clearly. I know that I can
change it in the jmeter.properties configuration file. However, I am not
sure how such change would reflect the GUI.

Suppose I change this property to xml, telling Jmeter to save my results to
xml file by default. My question is that which button/menu item/other GUI
element on which GUI screen should I click to save the results in an xml
file? (it might be silly question)

thanks

-Sai

It's in the jmeter.properties configuration file.
