Answer 1

Jmeter 4.0 solution : (I believe it could be executed on older version but I did not tried)

1. open command prompt and go to Jmeter -> bin folder //for example : C:\apache-jmeter-4.0\bin
2. Issue this command (remember it's a one single command) -

jmeter -n -t C:\apache-jmeter-4.0\res\nonGUI.jmx -l C:\apache-jmeter-4.0\res\log\logResult.log -j C:\apache-jmeter-4.0\res\log\logFile.log -e -o C:\apache-jmeter-4.0\res\report

3. Above command will give you

(a) Actual log // C:\apache-jmeter-4.0\res\log\logFile.log

(b) Result with pass/fail status C:\apache-jmeter-4.0\res\log\logResult.log

(c) HTML report C:\apache-jmeter-4.0\res\report\index.html

Answer 2

1. JMeter test result .jtl files should be generated during each test run given you provide results file location via -l command line argument
2. .jtl files format defaults to CSV

3. You can generate dashboard after test execution as follows:

   jmeter -n -t /path/to/test.jmx -l /path/to/results/jtl -e -o /path/to/html/report/folder
