Explore test results
While the tests are running in Aqua, the test execution is shown in the Run tool window on a tab for that run configuration. When the test execution is finished, you can look at the test results in that tab.
The console on the right shows the output of the current test session. It allows you to see the detailed information on the test execution and why your tests failed or were ignored.
The test results toolbar located above the list of test results allows you to show and hide successful and ignored tests, display how much time it took to run each test, export, import, and sort test results.
Next to each test on the run configuration tab, the IDE shows the test status icon:
Icon | Description |
|---|---|
| Test error. This status is assigned to tests that caused an exception from the tested source code. |
| Test failed. If at least one child test fails, all its parent tests are marked as failed. |
| Test ignored. |
| Test in progress. |
| Test passed successfully. |
| Test terminated. This status is assigned to tests that were stopped. If at least one test receives this status, then all unfinished tests and their parent tests are marked as terminated. |

Track test execution
In Aqua, you can monitor execution of the current test. If a test suite contains multiple tests, the list of tests expands to show test methods as they run one by one.
To monitor test execution, click
More on the toolbar and navigate to . Ensure that Track Running Test is selected.
Manage test results
Click
on the test results toolbar then select Test Runner Settings and enable the following options:
Track Running Test: monitor execution of the current test.
Show Inline Statistics: view the execution time for tests.
Scroll to Stack Trace: if a test produced a lot of output (for example, logging) before failing, this option automatically scrolls the output console to the assertion failure once you select the test on the run configuration tab.
Open Source at Exception: if you double-click a failed test method on the run configuration tab with this option on, the editor will scroll to the line on which the exception was thrown (instead of scrolling to the test method declaration).
Navigate with Single Click: open the code for the selected test automatically in the editor.
Set Auto Test Delay: point to this node to reveal the list of available delays between file saving and rerunning tests. The selected value gets the check mark.
Select First Failed Test When Finished: automatically select the first failed test in the list upon completing the test session.
Include Non-Started Tests into Rerun Failed: if some tests were ignored or not started during the previous test run, this option executes them together with the failed tests when you click
(Rerun Failed Tests).

Aqua automatically saves results of the last 10 test sessions. To open the list of recent test sessions:
Click the

Specify the name of the output file and its location.
If you want to open the file in your browser after you export it, select the Open exported file in browser checkbox. Click OK.
