Chart/Stat components show windowed counter values instead of cumulative totals #260
Description
Feature Description
When using Counter metrics in dashboard configuration, Chart and Stat components display different values compared to Summary component for the same query.
Observed behavior:
Summary: Shows 2.6k (cumulative total from test start)
Chart/Stat: Shows ~200 (appears to be windowed/current time slice value)
Expected behavior:
Chart and Stat components should be able to display cumulative Counter totals from test start, not just current time window values.
In Grafana, Counter metrics display cumulative totals by default, When users want windowed/rate data, they explicitly use rate() functions.
Suggested Solution (optional)
Chart/Stat components (SeriesPlot.ts line 25):
this.samples = digest.samples.select(queries) // Gets time series data
Summary component (SummaryTable.ts line 17):
this.view = digest.summary.select(queries) // Gets aggregated statistics
This explains why:
Chart/Stat display time-series values (individual data points over time)
Summary displays aggregated cumulative values (total from test start to end)
