Setting
Meaning
Sum
the weighting will be based on the sum of the specified entities for elements in the set specified by the domain parameter.
Maximum
the weighting will be based on the maximum specified entity for elements in the set specified by the domain parameter.
Minimum
the weighting will be based on the minimum specified entity for elements in the set specified by the domain parameter.
Mean
the weighting will be based on the mean of the specified entities for elements in the set specified by the domain parameter.
Count
the weighting will be based on a count of the specified entities for elements in the set specified by the domain parameter.
Count Differences
the weighting will be based on the number of differences between the count of the specified entity for each test and the count for the most recently performed test (only available for entity settings that begin with "Number of").
Count Similarities
the weighting will be based on the similarity between the count of the specified entity for each test and the count for the most recently performed test (only available for entity settings that begin with "Number of").
Direct
the weighting will be based on a direct lookup of the specified entity for each test (this setting is only available for test-based entities, such as Test Cost or Test Time).
