Outliers are plotted as +individual points. Min and max values are plotted as bottom and top +Whiskers respectively. 2nd and 3rd quartiles are plotted as bottom and +top edge of the box. If multiple samples match only two values, and all +samples fall between them, then no whiskers are plotted. If all samples +have the same value, only a horizontal line is plotted. + +*Title of each graph* is a regex (regular expression) matching all +throughput test cases plotted on this graph, *X-axis labels* are indices +of individual test suites executed by csit-vpp-perf-1704-all jobs that +created result output files used as data sources for the graph, *Y-axis +labels* are measured Packets Per Second [pps] values, and the *Graph +legend* lists the plotted test suites and their indices. + +.. note:: + + Test results have been generated by FD.io test executor jobs + `csit-vpp-perf-1704-all + <https://jenkins.fd.io/view/csit/job/csit-vpp-perf-1704-all/>`_, + with Robot Framework result files csit-vpp-perf-1704-all-<id>.zip + `archived here <../../_static/archive/>`_.
