The progress meter located at the bottom of the Information Area displays either the elapsed time of the current test run or a progress bar of the current test run. Use the
button to select and display either the elapsed time or the progress bar.
The
button opens and closes a separate Progress Monitor dialog box. The Progress Monitor provides additional detailed information about the test run that is not provided by the progress meter. See Using the Progress Monitor for a detailed description.
When a test run starts, the elapsed time display resets to 00.00.00 and begins updating in 1 sec intervals until the final test is completed. At the end of the test run, the total elapsed time for the test run is displayed.
The JavaTest harness displays a colored progress bar representing the test results in your current test run. As tests are completed, the JavaTest harness displays their status as colored segments in the progress bar.
The colors used in the progress bar represent the relative quantities of completed tests by their status. The colors of the icons shown below are the JavaTest default settings. The JavaTest harness allows you to use colors other than these default settings. See Specifying Status Colors.
The JavaTest harness displays test results from left to right in the following order:
| Status | Color | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Passed | Green | Tests in the test run having passing results when they were executed. |
| Failed | Red | Tests in the test run having failed results when they were executed. |
| Error | Blue |
Tests in the test run that the JavaTest harness could not execute.
Errors usually occur because the test environment is not properly configured. |
| Not run | White | Tests in the test run that the JavaTest harness has not yet executed. Tests excluded from the test run are not shown in the progress bar. |
