Analyzing Errors

Performance Explorer includes a feature that assists you in analyzing the errors that occur during load tests. While the overview report displays some error information, the Analyze Errors feature displays all errors in a comprehensive error chart and lists detailed information.

Before you follow the steps below, configure and execute a load test in Silk Performer.

  1. When your load test is completed, the Load Test Summary page displays. Click Analyze errors in the Next Steps area. Performance Explorer opens and displays the error chart.
  2. You can also click the Load Test Results chart or you click Analyze Load Test in the Next Steps area. Performance Explorer opens. Then, on the Results tab, in the Analyze group, click Analyze Errors. An error chart opens. You can zoom into the chart to drill down to the specific information you need.
Tip: You can also start with a blank Performance Explorer workspace. On the Results tab, in the Analyze group, click Analyze Errors and specify a .tsd file.
