Click File => Save your Test Plan as
A Dialog box display => enter a name of your test plan at File Name field => Click Save Now your Test Plan is saved under name RecordingTestPlan.jmx
Step 3) Run your Test Plan
Select Thread Group => Add => Listener=> Summary Report
The Summary Report will show some basic statics
Select Thread Group, enter information as the figure below
Before you start the test, select "Summary Report". When you ready to run a test, select Run => Start (Ctrl+R). JMeter will playback your activity in 100 times
As the test runs, the statistics will change until the test is done.
Step 4) Save your test result
Click Save Table Data to save test result to file
Enter the name of the test result and click Save. Test Result in JMeter is saved in *.csv format as default
