Results Panel
Understanding execution results, response time charts, step details, and anomaly detection.
Overview
After a flow runs, the detail area switches to the Results Panel. This panel shows a comprehensive breakdown of the execution: status header, summary metrics, a response time chart, the step results list, and anomaly/error details if applicable.
If you navigate to a step detail view, click the Results button in the Action Bar to return to the results panel. Use the Clear Results button to dismiss all run data and return to the design view.
Execution Header
The header bar at the top of the results panel shows the overall run status:
| State | Indicator | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Running | Pulsing blue dot | Shows progress (e.g., "3/5 steps") and a progress bar. If running with iterations, shows "iteration 2/4". |
| Passed | Green dot | All steps completed successfully. |
| Failed | Red dot | One or more steps failed. Shows "X of Y failed". |
| Anomaly Detected | Yellow warning triangle | Appears alongside Passed/Failed when response time anomalies are detected (multiple iterations only). |
Summary Cards
Four metric cards provide an at-a-glance overview of the run:
| Card | Description |
|---|---|
| Duration | Total wall-clock time for the run. Shows step count below. Updates live during execution. |
| Success Rate | Percentage of steps that passed, shown as a ring chart. Displays passed/total count below (e.g., "4/4"). With iterations, counts all steps across all iterations (e.g., "16/16"). |
| Avg Response | Average response time across all executed steps. |
| Data Transfer | Total bytes received. Shows bytes sent below. |
Note: The metrics also automatically identify the bottleneck — the slowest step in your flow. If a step's response time is significantly higher than the average, it's flagged with the excess time shown.
Response Time Chart
Below the summary cards, a line chart visualizes the response time for each step. The X-axis shows step names, the Y-axis shows time in milliseconds.
Single Iteration
- •A single blue line connects the response time of each step, with a subtle area fill below
- •Dots mark each step's data point on the line
- •Hover over a step to see a tooltip with the step name and exact response time. A vertical guide line appears at the hovered position.
- •If a step failed, its dot shows a red ring around it
Response Time Chart with Iterations
When running with multiple iterations, the chart changes to show one line per iteration, each in a different color. This makes it easy to compare response times across runs.
Multiple Iterations (4x)
4 iterationsIteration Colors:
Chart Modes:
- •All (aggregate): All iteration lines are shown with equal weight. No specific iteration is highlighted. Great for spotting overall patterns and outlier iterations.
- •Selected iteration: When you click an iteration, its line becomes bold with area fill and dots. Other iterations' lines become thin and faded, providing context without distraction.
Iteration Selector
When running with multiple iterations, an iteration selector bar appears below the chart. It lets you switch between aggregate and individual iteration views.
- •All: Shows aggregate view — all iteration lines with equal weight on the chart, summary cards show totals across all iterations
- •Individual iteration buttons: Each shows its color indicator, number, and total duration. Click to select that iteration — the chart highlights its line, and the step results list updates to show that iteration's data.
- •Failed iterations: If an iteration has any failed steps, a small red dot appears on its button
- •Click a selected iteration again to deselect it and return to the aggregate view
Step Results List
Below the chart, every executed step is listed with detailed result information. Click any step to open its full response in the step detail panel.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Status Icon | ✓ success, ✗ failure, ◦ running (animated), ○ pending / skipped |
| Method | HTTP method badge (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE) with color coding |
| Name & URL | Step name (bold) with the full request URL below in smaller text |
| Status Code | HTTP response status code (e.g., 200, 201, 404). Color-coded: green for 2xx, blue for 3xx, amber for 4xx, red for 5xx. |
| Response Time | Time in milliseconds for the request round-trip |
| Response Size | Total response body size in bytes (e.g., 374 B, 1.2 KB) |
| Assertions | If the step has assertions, shows passed/total count (e.g., 1/1). Green when all pass, red when any fail. Empty if no assertions configured. |
Tip: Click any step in the results list to open its full response details — body, headers, cookies, timing breakdown, and assertion results. Use the Results button in the Action Bar to navigate back.
Anomaly Detection
When running with multiple iterations, Tigrister automatically analyzes response times across iterations to detect anomalies. If detected, an "Anomaly Detected" badge appears in the execution header, and detail cards appear at the bottom of the results panel.
Anomaly Types:
- •Outlier: A specific iteration's response time for a step deviates significantly from the mean. Shown as: "Iteration 1: 38ms — 250% above average"
- •Inconsistent: A step's response times vary too much across iterations (high coefficient of variation). Shown as: "Response times are unstable (CV: 85%) — 5ms, 38ms, 42ms, 31ms"
- •Both: A step can have both outlier and inconsistency anomalies simultaneously
Example Anomaly Card
Iteration 1: 38ms — 443% above average
Response times are unstable (CV: 85%) — 38ms, 5ms, 7ms, 5ms
Note: Anomaly detection requires at least 3 iterations to produce meaningful statistical comparisons. Runs with fewer iterations do not produce anomaly data. This is particularly useful for identifying cold-start effects (first iteration is slower) or intermittent server issues.
Error Details
When any step fails during execution, an Error Details section appears below the step results list. It shows each failed step with its error message and any failed assertion messages, making it easy to identify and debug failures without clicking into individual steps.
Managing Results
- •Clear Results: Click the "Clear Results" button in the Action Bar to dismiss all run data and return to the design view
- •Results button: After clicking a step to view its response, click "Results" in the Action Bar to return to the results panel
- •Re-run: Click Run again to execute the flow with the same settings. Previous results are replaced by the new run.
