# Result Settings dialog box

This dialog box enables you to set the location where Controller saves scenario run results.

By default, the results directory is stored in your machine's temp folder. A subfolder is created using the result name, and all the gathered data is placed in that folder.

To access | Results > Results Settings
Important information | If you have an open connection to an OpenText Application Quality Management project, and the scenario is saved in that project, the results are saved to a test set in the OpenText Application Quality Management system. You can also save the results locally.

User interface elements are described below:

UI Element | Description
--- | ---
File System / ALM button | Note: This button is displayed only when there is an open connection to an OpenText Application Quality Management project. If you are connected to an OpenText Application Quality Management project, but previously set the scenario to be saved to the Controller file system, the button is disabled. This button toggles between the possible save locations. The dialog box settings change, according to the current mode: ALM. When this is displayed, you are currently in Controller mode, meaning results are saved to a folder in the Controller file system. File System. When this is displayed, you are currently in OpenText Application Quality Management mode, meaning results are saved to a folder in the that file system.
Result Name | Specify a name for the run results folder. You can give a descriptive name to each result set. Descriptive names are especially useful for cross results analysis, in which the results of several scenario runs are superimposed in a single Analysis graph, allowing you to compare the results of multiple scenario runs. When comparing the results of scenario runs in Analysis, the graph displays all the result sets in different colors. Note: Use different names even when saving results in different folders. Since the Analysis graphs display only names and not the paths, distinguishing results is difficult if names are identical.
Directory | Specify a location in the Controller file system where results will be saved. If you are using the default file storage setting (local machine), specify a folder in which to store all of the collated results after the scenario run. If you specified a shared network drive as the file storage method, specify the folder to which Vuser groups should write during scenario execution. Note: Do not specify an admin/administrator folder, as non-admin users without sufficient permissions may be unable to write to such a folder. For details on setting global runtime file storage options, see Runtime File Storage tab. To set runtime file storage options for an individual load generator, see Load Generator Configuration > Runtime File Storage tab.
Test Sets | When displayed, select the relevant OpenText Application Quality Management test set.
Instances | When displayed, select the relevant OpenText Application Quality Management instance.
Automatically create a results directory for each scenario execution | Enables creation of a unique results folder for each scenario run. By default, the result names are res1, res2, res3, and so on.
Automatically overwrite existing results directory without prompting for confirmation | Enables previous result sets to be overwritten automatically, without prompting for user confirmation.
