9.2.3 Interpreting and analyzing the test results
The test results that we obtain may not give us the desired information directly. Therefore, interpreting and analyzing them is a necessary and important part of the benchmark-creation work. This phase is also crucial for making corrections to the initial assumptions, setup, and so forth, should the results prove contrary to our expectations. It is very important to review the application logs to make sure there are no unexpected errors. If the test involves a database, you should also review the database for deadlocks and any other database issues.
