Blazemeter Performance Baseline compare showing incorrect/strange differences when viewing report set as baseline

Products

Issue/Introduction

The Performance Summary report for a test designated as the baseline is showing % differences.  If this is the baseline test, why is the baseline report showing metric comparisons?

Environment

Release : SAAS

Component : BLAZEMETER PERFORMANCE TESTING

Cause

This will occur if the test designated as the current baseline was executed when a different test was designated as the baseline.  The % differences reported are those computed for the metrics in the new baseline test compared against the metrics of the test that was the designated baseline when the new baseline test was executed. 

Resolution

For any test that displays % differences against a baseline, even the test currently designated as the new baseline, the test the metrics are compared against can be found on the Original Test Configuration page:
