Overview of performance counter tables

        The metadata for all of the performance counters collected during a load test is stored in three related tables: LoadTestPerformanceCounterCategory, LoadTestPerformanceCounter, and LoadTestPerformanceCounter.

        This metadata includes all four components of performance counter identifier: computer name, category name, counter name, and instance name.

        Note that these three tables only store metadata about the performance counters; the sampled performance counter values are stored in LoadTestPerformanceCounterSample.

Table: LoadTestPerformanceCounter: Stores one row for each performance counter that is collected during the load test

Columns:

  • LoadTestRunId (int): The unique Id of the load test run

    If you're interested in accessing the data in the load test results store directly to build your own...

    Thanks, this was very useful :)

    thanks this is great.One question.  What do zeros in the samples table mean?  Using your DB dictionary I have written sql queriy and can see the raw data.  However, in about 5% of the intervals I see '0' , i.e., nothing zero zilch nada, for average response time.That seems impossible.  During the load test there were 7 requests per second and each interval was 5 seconds long.  In other words there were 35 requests in every interval--I would think there would have to be a response returned during that period.  If not, I would hope VSTS would report null.I understand that sometimes the server being tested is too busy to report perfmon data, but doesn't VSTS report zero for this case?  I would think it would/should because reporting zero would be very confusing and (I think) would make average response times look really good (when they weren't).

    In some of tables of  'LoadTest' database I cannot see any values. For example, table 'LoadTestTestSummaryData' does not contain values.Am I missing something?Thx.

    Very useful but how do I actually see the content of a "long binary data" value?e.g. WebLoadTestErrorDetail.WebTestRequestResult
