The Test Run Messages pane provides detailed messages that describe what happened during the running of each section of the test. This information is especially useful when troubleshooting a test run.
The Message list pane provides a detailed list of messages issued during a test run. Click an item in the Message list to display its contents in the Messages pane.
Displays the messages issued during a test run. Specific message contents vary for each test suite and may also vary for different tests in the same test suite.
Summarizes all of the messages generated during a test run and provides hypertext links to their detailed contents:
Messages passed up from the script that executed the test. Script messages vary for each test script. Refer to your test suite documentation for detailed descriptions of the script messages when troubleshooting a test run.
Each test Result Section has an Output Summary and Result message that provides summary messages and hypertext links to its detailed messages.
Some tests have only one result section, while others have multiple sections. Refer to your test suite documentation for detailed descriptions of the tests when troubleshooting a test run.
Output Summary |
A two column table listing the name and size of each output section. Each output section contains text generated while executing the test section:
The ref and the log output are two streams that a test can use when writing test information. Many tests only use the log stream and include tracing as well as standard error information when writing to the log output. If there are no details in an output section, the JavaTest harness does not create its hypertext link and indicates in the Size (chars) column that it is "empty." The contents of each output section varies from test suite to test suite. Refer to your test suite documentation for detailed descriptions of the test section messages when troubleshooting a test run. |
Result | Contains a colored status icon and a brief description of the results of the specific test section. The color of the circle indicates the result of the test section. |
Indicates the cumulative result of the test, determined by the test script from the results of the preceding test sections (if any).
For negative tests, the Test Result correctly indicates "passed" when all of its test sections have failed.
