Customization of Performance Test

[allenm62]

Is there a way to NOT do the Display performance tests, 2D and 3D? For my purposes, I do NOT care to benchmark the display adapter or the CD/DVD drive. Also, where do I find scripting information, readme file, etc.?

You can run whichever tests you want from the menus, or via scripting.

Details about the scripting options are found in the help file (under the Help menu).

System environment variables

I've been playing with the scripting tool. I would like to pass the Windows %COMPUTERNAME% variable into the script for more automated identification, to that point, I'd also like to use the %COMPUTERNAME% variable as part of the exported file name. Is there a way to accomplish this with the scripting language provided?

I would suggest writing a DOS script which generates a PT script, then executes the PT script.

So your DOS script would be like this,

echo SETCOMPUTERNAME "%computername%" >> myscript.ptscript
echo RUN CPU_ALL >> myscript.ptscript
echo EXPORTCSV "%computername%.csv"
pt.exe /s myscript.ptscript
del myscript.ptscript
