What is it?

The plugin supports three different modes: "debug", "info", and "quiet". Here are their purposes.

Debug

Debug mode should be used, as it indicates, only when debugging your test scripts. It will send all the details of requests/response to the ElasticSearch engine allowing you to visualize and debug in real-time. It could be used as an alternative to the Results Tree.

** Although, it should be noted that debugging with the results tree is most likely faster. However, we do like giving you the option to choose :-). **

Info

Info mode should be used when the tests are being executed in a production context. This mode will only send the details of the responses upon failed requests. This allows you to be able to locate the errors when visualizing the tests through either Kibana/Grafana.

Quiet

Quiet mode should be used when... Well it should be used when you simply don't care to have any details except for the usual Response Times, sent bytes, etc.
