Metrics Reference

The table below lists metrics collected by ReadyAPI during load test runs:

Metric

Description

Average

The average value.

BPS

Bytes per second.

COUNT

The number of users tracked for statistics.

Last

The last returned value.

Max

The maximum value.

Median

The median value (same as 50th percentile).

Min

The minimum value.

Per Second

Values per second.

Standard Deviation

A measure of the deviation of results from the mean value.

Tip

In general, the Standard Deviation metric is not representative of the performance of your service and must be based on a sufficiently large set of results to be reliable. Use the Average metric instead to score the performance.

Sum

The sum of all values.

Total

The value of the statistics during the entire test run.

TPS

Transactions per second.

Value

The actual latest value (interpolated to data point resolution).

25th percentile

The lowest value that is greater than 25% of the values (interpolated, inclusive).

75th percentile

The lowest value that is greater than 75% of the values (interpolated, inclusive).

90th percentile

The lowest value that is greater than 90% of the values (interpolated, inclusive).

95th percentile

The lowest value that is greater than 95% of the values (interpolated, inclusive).

98th percentile

The lowest value that is greater than 98% of the values (interpolated, inclusive).

Important

Median, Percentile and Standard Deviation values are calculated by using weighted average.
