Tester Guide
This guide describes the tasks that you can perform for testing various domains, technologies, and applications. To enable testing, you must configure and enable the environment for testing.
Technical Tester Guide
Typically, a user with the Integration Tester role is also responsible for performance testing. This guide lists all such topics.
View test results
This topic describes how to work with IBM® Rational® Performance Test Server charts in the Results Gallery perspective.
Chart styles
The Styles tab on the chart window enables you to modify the general appearance of the chart, including general styles and styles that are specific to each axis (when more than one axis is displayed).
Data used for plotting counters
On the Data tab of the Choose Style dialog box, you can configure how the data for the selected counter should be plotted. The options include plotting the selected line on a new axis and changing the label displayed in the legend for the current line.

        Axis-specific styles
        For each chart that is displayed, you can add a heading to the chart, toggle the display of the plot legends, and toggle the display of the grid lines that extend from the Y-axis.
        General styles
        The options under General Styles will be applied to all displayed charts.
        Configuring styles used for plotting counters

        Data used for plotting counters
        On the Data tab of the Choose Style dialog box, you can configure how the data for the selected counter should be plotted. The options include plotting the selected line on a new axis and changing the label displayed in the legend for the current line.
        Selecting axes
        If some of the plotted counters have widely varying values (for example, the pass rate is in the tens range, but the duration is in the thousands), you may want to display one or more counters on its own axis.
