Configuring result file data when running JMeter in non-GUI mode

By default JMeter does not save any summary results to file. Either you have to save as JTL and view it in the summary listeners later or run with the summary listeners. I would rather suggest the first option, as the second will be a overhead for the JMeter. Also i have read an post on how few summary can be logged on console while running in non-GUI mode. Please read - http://developer.amd.com/community/blog/using-apache-jmeter-in-non-gui-mode/

Update: The following is correct, but it's considered best practice to modify the user.properties file in order to avoid updates which may overwrite jmeter.properties (See the documentation).

Check out following set of properties in jmeter.properties.

#---------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Results file configuration
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------

# This section helps determine how result data will be saved.
# The commented out values are the defaults.

# legitimate values: xml, csv, db.  Only xml and csv are currently supported.
#jmeter.save.saveservice.output_format=csv

...
...
# Only applies to CSV format files:
jmeter.save.saveservice.print_field_names=true

print_field_names is by default false. Set it to true to figure out what column is what?

timeStamp,elapsed,label,responseCode,responseMessage,threadName,dataType,success,bytes,Latency
1379564790444,652,jp@gc - Dummy Sampler,200,OK,Thread Group 1-1,text,true,87,78
1379564791099,1,Debug Sampler,200,OK,Thread Group 1-1,text,true,1175,0

By the way that big value is timestamp in epoch, if you meant 1st field by big value.
