How to: View Data and Diagnostic Attachments Using the Load Test Analyzer

 

Before you run a load test, you can select a test setting that specifies the diagnostic and data adapters that you want to use. After the load test is finished, you use the Load Test Analyzer to view the details for those diagnostic and data adapters while you analyze the results. See Distributing Load Test Runs Across Multiple Test Machines Using Test Controllers and Test Agents.

Requirements

  • Visual Studio Enterprise

To view the data and diagnostic adapter details, choose the View Data and Diagnostic attachments button on the Load Test Analyzer's toolbar. For example, if the load test had the system information adapter configured in the test setting, you can view the system information for the machine that was used when the load test was run.

Another example is a load test that includes the IntelliTrace adapter in the test setting. The IntelliTrace adapter enables you to open the IntelliTrace Summary page.
