      • Default to use the default analysis template for the selected performance test report.

      • Select Resource and select a customized analysis template for the selected performance test report.

    Note:  

    • During the test run, the analysis template is logically bound to the run entity by its ID.

    • Editing a test after it has run and changing to another analysis template only impacts future runs. Prior runs still use the previous analysis template.

    • If the customized analysis template is not found, the default analysis template is used.
