Suite Results

The Suite Results area displays a list of all the tests in the suite, with icons.

The green icon indicates that the test has completed and passed.
The red icon indicates that the test has completed and failed.
The blue icon indicates that the test is still running.

To display the test monitor for tests that are still running, click View Test at the bottom of the panel.

For completed tests, you can select the test name to see a status in the text area to the right. Seeing the status is most useful to see why a specific test failed.

At the bottom of the Stage Suite Execution panel is a toolbar.

The first set of icons manages individual tests in the suite. To use these icons, first select a test in the Test List section of the Results tab. The following functions are available for a specific selected test:

	Stop Test	Stops the test after it reaches the next logical end/fail. It does not start a new cycle.
	Kill Test	Stops the test immediately after the current step completes.
	View Test	This tool will work only for currently running tests. This starts the test monitor for the selected test.

The second set of icons manages the test suite itself, or when a suite is running:

	Run Suite	Starts/restarts the suite test.
	Close Suite	Close the Stage Suite Execution window.
	View Test	Starts the test monitor for the selected test.
