What is the difference between Last Test Execution & All test executions options in TM4J dashboards

Question

I created a Jira dasboard and Added gadgets to view test execution from tm4j.

I see an option for Last Test execution and All test execution radio buttons under the Results for every gadgets.

What is the difference between both these options and when should they be used?

We don't actually do a lot of reporting from TM4J, but something like the option of"all" executions could be useful to run a report on a specific test case to see what its historical test results have been - has it failed a lot, never, etc.  You could report on who has tested it, what cycles it has been in, etc, using "all" executions.

"Last" is good for when you just care about the most recent result for a test case, perhaps to determine release readiness.

As we have in Jira about the comment in search for issues mode in the column we have the last comment that it shows you the last comment but maybe we have more than that one comment. Test execution is the same as comment. You may have a lot of test execution about test but it shows you last one.
