Viewing the Result

To run a project, execute the .driver file by selecting the Build and Run command. The result(pass or fail) is displayed in the Test Results Viewer window, the contents of the log file are displayed in the Console window, and the status is indicated in the Progress window.

Test results viewer

Test results viewer shows a real time progress of the test job and the results of each executed task as defined in the .driver file. The result here can be a pass or fail. It also shows the html results of TEF scripts. The Test Results Viewer contains six columns: Task, Operation, Duration, Timed-out, Build/TEF Result, and TEF RunWsProgram Result. The Test Results View is cleaned at the beginning of each job.


The result is dispalyed in the HTML results window and any Exceptions are displayed in the Exceptions window.

Console window

The console view logs informations received from TestDriver as it progress. The warnings are in blue and errors in red. All others are informational. The console also prints the TestDriver configuration used by the job right at the beginning. The console is cleaned-up before starting any job except the case where Build and Run is selected in the launch configuration. In this case SVS Test Development tool will schedule two jobs and still you can refer back to the build logs as the console is not cleaned.


Progress monitor

The Progress window appears only when we select the Run in background option while running or building the .driver file. It shows the list of jobs and their progress bars. Jobs are scheduled in sequence, so there is only one job running at a time. all other jobs are shown as Waiting. This limitation is chosen on purpose to avoid overloading the system and give the opportunity to check build results. Jobs can be canceled. Canceling a waiting job will remove it from the queue. Cancelling a running job will stop the job at the end of the task in execution.
