Analyze test results in Grafana Cloud

In this milestone, you analyze your k6 test results in Grafana Cloud dashboards to understand performance metrics and identify potential issues.

1. In the main menu, navigate to Testing & synthetics > Performance.

2. On the Performance page, select the project that contains your test.

3. Select your test, then choose the most recent test run from the list to open the Performance Overview dashboard.

4. Review the Performance Overview dashboard, which displays test summary information (duration, virtual users, iterations), HTTP request statistics (total requests, success rate, error rate), response time metrics (average, median, p95), and throughput metrics (requests per second, data transfer rates).

5. Scroll down to the Cloud Insights section.

   Cloud Insights analyzes your test script and results, then generates scores and recommendations across categories such as best practice, reliability, and system performance.

6. Select the HTTP tab to explore detailed request metrics for each endpoint, including count, response times (min, average, p95, p99, max), and status codes.

7. Select the Thresholds tab to review the default and custom thresholds for your test.

   Grafana Cloud k6 automatically applies thresholds like http_req_failed and http_req_duration.

You now know how to find your test results in Grafana Cloud and read the performance overview, Cloud Insights, HTTP details, and thresholds for your test.
