Running tests
There are four ways to run the diagnostic tests.
• Using the cursor movement keys, highlight Run Normal Test or Run Quick Test from the Diagnostics
menu and then press Enter. This automatically runs a pre-defined group of tests from each test category.
Run Normal Test runs a more extensive set of tests than Run Quick Test does and takes longer to
complete.
• Press F5 to automatically run all selected tests in all categories.
• From within a test category, press Ctrl+Enter to automatically run only the selected tests in that category.
• Using the cursor movement keys, highlight a single test within a test category, and then press Enter.
This runs only that test.
Press Esc at any time to stop the testing process.
Test results (N/A, PASSED, FAILED, ABORTED) are displayed in the field beside the test description and in
the test log. See “Viewing the test log” on page 15.
To select one or more tests, do the following:
1. Open the corresponding test category.
2. Using the cursor movement keys, highlight the desired test.
3. Press the space bar. A selected test is marked by >> . Pressing the space bar again de-selects a test
and removes the >>.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 above to select all desired tests.
