When the test is complete ANTS creates an HTML report that is separated into six sections:
- The overview gives you a quick easy look at the scalability of your web site by giving you two numbers. The frustration coefficient indicates how frustrated visitors of your web site will be by download times. The abandonment prediction gives you an idea of the number and percentage of users who will be so frustrated with your web site that they will leave.
- Summary Information By Page: This section shows the average time for each web page to load and can help you find the fastest and slowest pages in your web site.
- Summary Information By Script Duration: This section shows how long on average scripts are taking to run.
- Summary Information By Object: This section shows you the average time for individual items to load.
- Summary Information By Metric: This section shows you the average time for web pages and individual items to load.
- Performance Counter Information: This section how shows how the performance counters behaved during the test.
The ANTS report gives you a quick overview of how your site performed and also generates specific information about which parts of your site are going to perform well and which parts need improvement before going live. The report is very comprehensive and gives enough detailed information to answer the questions mentioned at the begining of this review.
