Results for tests in Functional Test perspective

In this section, you will learn how to analyze test results in the Functional Test perspective.

Functional test logs
After the playback is complete, you can view the results in the log. The results include any logged events such as verification point failures, script exceptions, object recognition warnings, and any additional playback information.
Logging page
You use the Logging page to set log and comparator options, such as preventing the script launch wizard from displaying on playback, displaying the log viewer after playback, and displaying a message before overwriting an existing log. You also use this page to indicate the type of log generated.
Setting log preferences
You can set your log preferences to view functional test logs.
Disabling enhanced log results
Logged events such as verification point failures, script exceptions, object recognition warnings, and other additional playback information are displayed in the playback log results. From Rational® Functional Tester version 8.2 and later, the results of the getProperty() command are also displayed in the log results. If you do not require the log event to be displayed in the playback log, you can disable the event in the log results.
Viewing logs in the Projects view
You can open a log from the Projects view. In Projects view, the HTML, XML, and text logs are listed within each project. The log list is displayed below the project. The log has the same name as the project, with _logs appended, for example, projectname_logs.
Viewing Dojo logs
Dojo logs are based on XML logs and display a graphical representation of the test results. You can use Dojo logs to select filters and view verification points, failed verdicts, warning verdicts, and the detailed information on each action that is recorded in the script. Dojo logs open in the default browser after script execution.
Renaming and deleting logs
You can rename and delete logs from the Projects view.
Log Extension
You can create customized Rational® Functional Tester logs in addition to the standard log formats: text, HTML, Test and Performance Tools Platform (TPTP), and XML. You can use the customized logs to view your playback results.
