### 3.22.3. Working with the Test Result Summary View

A test result summary and full details about the whole test are stored for each test run. Individual Test Suites within a Test Job are counted as one test run each.

You can see the test result summaries in the Reporting Perspective, in the Test Result Summary View.

#### 3.22.3.1. Re-opening the test result view for a test run

1. If the full details for a test run are still available (the column Details shows true), you can re-open the full test result by double-clicking on the entry in the Test Result Summary View or by clicking the button to open the report in the top right-hand corner of the view.

2. In the test result, you can navigate through the test results using the mouse or using the toolbar buttons to spring to the next or previous error. In this way, you can view any screenshots in the Image View and details about errors in the Properties View.

3. Each node in the Test Result View shows the amount of time taken to execute this node and any parameter values that were used at this node. You can turn these options off in the preferences (Section 3.29.12, “Label decoration preferences”).

| In the Project properties, you can specify how often the full reports should be automatically deleted from the database (Section 3.6.3.1, “Editing general Project properties”).
