Motivation for access Logs

Motivation for access Logs

The access logs act as a historic record for testing including:

  • Historic record of tests

  • Standard analysis tools exist

  • Analysis can be automated

  • Response time -  Good to find under performing parts of the code

  • Browser type - What have we tested the  JavaScript and Dav against

  • Size - If we have GC issues there may be a coorelation

  • Status code - Spot errors and missing files

  • IP address - How many eyeballs have been on the test

  • Timestamp - directly searchable in catalina.out for errors

More - No doubt.
