Understanding the General User Interface
The platform diagnostics application uses multiple screens from which you can choose
execution options, enable or disable tests for execution, and define test parameters. The initial
screen consists of four pull-down menus:
•
File
•
System Information
•
Platform Test
•
Help
The
<up-arrow>
and
<down-arrow>
keys navigate vertically through all areas of the
screen. During navigation, items that you can modify become highlighted.
<Left-arrow>
and
<right-arrow>
keys navigate horizontally through the menus.
•
Pressing the
<Enter>
key with an execution option highlighted causes the action to occur.
•
Pressing the
<Enter>
key from within a dialog box causes data to be entered.
•
Pressing the
<F1>
key while a test is highlighted or has the greater-than character (
>
) to the
left of it causes on-line help for that test to appear.
•
Pressing the
<ESC>
key with on-line help displayed or with a dialog box displayed
dismisses the information or dialog box.
Understanding Basic Testing
The Platform Test menu is set up in the order that is typically used:
•
Test Setup allows you to determine which tests to run and how thoroughly to test.
•
Run Test starts test execution and provides some indication of test progress.
•
View Results shows the results window and allows you to view and clear the test log.
Enabling Tests For Execution
To enable one or more tests for execution, select
Test setup
from the Platform Test menu.
Use the
<up-arrow>
and
<down-arrow>
arrows to first select a test, and then press:
•
<Q>
for a quick test
•
<C>
for a complete test
•
<D>
to disable the test.
When a test is enabled,
Quick
or
Complete
appears next to the test under the
Coverage
column. If a test is disabled, the
Disabled
appears under that column. An individual test can
be executed up to nine times for each run of the test suite. With the test highlighted, use the
number keys to set the number of iterations for an individual test.
The test area of the screen displays six tests at a time. Use the arrow keys to scroll through the
list.
NOTE
By default on startup all tests are set to quick test and single iteration.
You may go directly to
Run Test
if no changes are required.
