# Test Results

The **Test results** form can be viewed by navigating to **Lasernet** > **Test and performance suite** > **Test** > **Test results**.

This form is divided into four sections:

- **Test execution**
- **Log**
- **Checkpoint archives**
- **Test result archives**

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> The test results can also be viewed by navigating to **Lasernet** > **Test and performance suite** > **Test** > **Test checkpoints**. Refer to the [Test checkpoint form](/v1/docs/test-checkpoint-form) section of this guide for more information.

## Test Execution

An overview of the Test run is displayed here for each execution/run, which contains the following data:

- **User ID** – The user who ran the test.
- **Test flow** – The name of the Test flow, if a Test flow was used.
- **Checkpoint** – The name of the Test checkpoint.
- **Report name** – The name of the report.
- **Result** – defines the test as a **Pass** or **Fail**.
  - The XML files need to be identical to get a **Pass** result.
  - If **Compare to PDF** is set to **Yes**, the XML and PDF files need to be identical to get a **Pass** result.
- **Start date/time** of the test run.
- **End date/time** of the test run.

## Log

The **Log** FastTab displays detailed information about the test result.

The following is an example of a **Fail** test result where the XML files are different, but the PDF files are identical.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> Some data in the **JobInfo** section of the XML file is different for each time a report is generated. For example, the **ExecutionId**. However, these elements are not checked as part of the test comparison, as these are expected to be different. Therefore, these are not mentioned in the **Log** and if only these elements are different, then the test will be a **Pass**. This is applicable even when **Skip ‘JobInfo’ and ‘Report’** section is set to **No**.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> If you are testing a Lasernet replacement for an SSRS report, you may get a **Fail** result even after making no changes to the report. For example, the **RecIds** differ in the temporary tables and in **PurchPurchaseOrderReplacement**, as these change each time the report is run. To avoid confusion, these elements can be skipped for testing. Refer to the [Test Exceptions](/v1/docs/test-exceptions) section of this guide for more information on skipping elements for a test run.

## Checkpoint Archives

The **Checkpoint archives** section shows Checkpoint archive records. Note that a single report run might have one or more archives (for instance, separate archives are generated for each destination).

This record is used as the point of comparison when checking test results.

The **Preview** button can be used to open the XML or PDF (if saved in the archive) files for this Test checkpoint.

The **Details** button opens the Lasernet Archive record linked with this Test checkpoint.

## Test Result Archives

The **Test result archives** section shows archive records for the test result selected in the **Test results archive** FastTab. Note that a single report run result might have one or more archives.

The **Preview** button can be used to open the XML or PDF (if saved in the archive) files for this test result.

The **Details** button opens the Lasernet Archive record linked with this test result.

The **Set as checkpoint** button can be used to update the Checkpoint archive record on the Test checkpoint with this test result. This is useful as you can use this test result as the Test checkpoint for future test runs. When updating a Test checkpoint, you will be prompted by a message:

The updated record in the Checkpoint archive can be seen by navigating to the **Test checkpoint** form.
