- [Instructor] It's awesome running your load test through the command-line. If you've never done it before, you kind of feel like you're in the Matrix. But, I didn't tell Jamie to save any reports from that last load test, meaning that the only output we have was the text from the output of the terminal. Not ideal if you want to find out more detailed information about the test. Now, I did add a listener to the test earlier through the GUI. However, when running a load test through the command-line, it ignores all of the listeners we put in the test previously in the GUI. Those listeners are for use only with the GUI when debugging and creating tests and are of no use to us here. We can, however, save all of the detailed information of this test to a file for use later and for evidentiary purposes. To do this, we'll go back to our command-line. We'll get our previous command on deck ready to run, and I'm going to add the minus L switch followed by a unique name for our testing…
