Understanding automated test status (deprecated)

Note:  Script agents for automated testing are deprecated and will be discontinued in a future release. We recommend using Helix ALM's out-of-the-box automated testing support. See Managing automated tests for more information.

Helix ALM displays the automated test status before, during, and after execution. Automated tests can have the following status:

  • Scheduled—Tests are scheduled to start at a later time. See Scheduling automated tests to run (deprecated).
  • Started—Tests are currently running.
  • Passed—Tests finished running and all of them passed.
  • Failed—Tests finished running but one or more tests failed.
  • Undetermined—Tests did not finish running. For example, a problem may exist with the tested application. You cannot view results for tests in an Undetermined status.

Note:  To view the status of running automated tests, choose Activities > Check Test Script Status. See Checking automated test status.
