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.
