Chapter 4
Reviewing and Copying Test Results
This chapter describes how to review your test status while the automated
certification tests are running. This chapter also describes how to copy your
test results so that you can include them with your certification
submission.
Reviewing Test Status
While the test suite is running, the user interface displays the Review Test
Status screen. This screen provides a variety of information for you as
described in the following sections.
Note - If you need to terminate the certification test, you can
select the Stop Tests button at any time on this screen. See the
information on Stop Tests in Usage Notes.
Figure 4-1 shows the Review Test Status screen for a single-port network
controller. The Review Test Status screen looks very similar for other types of
certifications.

Reports and Log Files
During the certification testing, you can view the reports or log files
generated by the certification process. Select a report or log file from the
pull-down menu and then click on the View File button. The screen
changes to display the selected report or log file. To return to the Review
Test Status screen, click the Back button on your browser.
After the certification test completes, the following additional buttons are
available to you on this screen:
Copying Test Results
After the certification process completes and you have passed all the
certification requirements, you need to copy the test results and submit
them to Sun for audit.
Click the Copy Test Results button.
On the Copy Test Results Screen, do one of the following actions:
Choose the output device from the device pull-down menu.
Type the path of the location on your system to which you would like
to copy the test results.
If the results are copied to a location on your system, you must supply a
full path for each test run.

Ensure that the Copy option is selected, not the Preview option.
Click the Process Report button.
Note - If you want to preview the test report before copying it,
select the Preview Test option and then click the Process Report button.
The screen changes to display the test just as it will appear when it is copied
and submitted to Sun for audit. Click the Back button to get back to the
Copy Test Results screen, where you can follow the procedure above to copy the
test results.
The HCTS will tar the logs and final reports into one compressed
tar archive file named CC.L#.summary.tar.z or
SC.L#.summary.tar.z. If you rerun the test suite without deleting this
file, the file for the second test run will overwrite the previous file.
The tar file format indicates the following information:
CC indicates a Controller Certification, and L#
indicates the level number that you chose.
SC indicates a Systems Certification, and L# indicates
the level number that you chose.
You must include the file from your final test run in the certification
package that you submit to Sun.
