Besides this default summary, k6 can output the results in other formats at the end of the test:

Custom summaryAggregatedUsing the handleSummary() to make completely custom reports
CSVTime-stamped data pointsWriting results as a CSV file, and the structure of the data
JSONTime-stamped data pointsWriting results as a JSON file, and the structure of the data

The default summary

The end-of-test summary reports details and aggregated statistics for the primary aspects of the test:

  • Summary statistics about each built-in and custom metric (e.g. mean, median, p95, etc).
  • A list of the test’s groups and scenarios
  • The pass/fail results of the test’s thresholds and checks.

ERRO[0044] some thresholds have failed

Above’s an example of a report that k6 generated after a test run.

  • It has a scenario, Ramp_Up
  • The requests are split into two groups:
    • GET home, which has a check that responses are 200 (all passed)
    • Create resource, which has a check that responses are 201 (all failed)
  • The test has one threshold, requiring that 95% of requests have a duration under 200ms (failed)

Summary options

k6 provides some options to filter or silence summary output:
