### 3.22.1. The Test Result View

The Test Result View (Figure 3.30, “Test Result View”) tracks the test progress for each Test Suite, marking each Test Step as successful or unsuccessful.

When the test begins, the Test Steps to be executed appear in the Test Result View. As each Test Step is executed, it is marked with a question mark. If the Test Step is successful, it is marked with a green tick. Failed Test Steps are marked with red crosses. Test Steps which succeeded after retrying (Section 3.27, “Dealing with errors in tests: Event Handlers”) are marked differently to show that they were successful after retrying.
