Groups and tests states and execution statuses
The test is a set of SQL statements and parameters, which are arranged in a particular way to check if the converted objects work in the same way as the source objects.
The group is a set of logically connected tests, which are executed according to the scenario.
Test Scenario — defines a group of tests and says how tests will be executed:
- sequentially or in parallel,
- in one session or in several sessions,
- in a random or in a strict order.
Execution states
After the execution, each test and each group of tests gets the execution statuses, assigned depending on was the executions successful or not.
Use the Save data set in file option in the pop-up menu to save the result of test execution into a .csv file.
The tests return the result of comparison for the three types of outputs (one of them or a combination of two of them):
- scalar output values (procedure parameters, function return value, etc.)
- datasets (sys_refcursor, a result of a SELECT statement, etc.)
- affected objects (objects, which potentially could be affected during the programmability execution)
Group and test can have the following execution statuses:
- Passed: means that scalar result(s), dataset(s), or affected object(s) return, and these results are equal in the Source and the Target
- Failed: means that scalar result(s), dataset(s), or affected object(s) return, and these results are NOT equal in the Source and the Target
- Error: means that there is an error in the test (table or view does not exist, user-defined exception, arithmetic overflow error, etc.)
- Not executed: means that the test is new, imported, copied, moved, and not started yet
Test status is cumulative. It’s defined based on the results from the three test components:
- scalar output values,
- datasets,
- affected objects.
The test status defines the most severe result of these three components.
Group status is also cumulative. It’s defined based on the test statuses of both test results and test state. Group status is defined as the most severe test result/state.
The test results from the highest to the lowest severity:
- Error
- Failed
- Passed

Group and test states
The groups and tests can have the following states:
- Invalid — the high severity state that indicates that the test is corrupted (deleted from the file system but the record in the project file remains, the object is not in the metadata tree, the affected objects are missing or the name of the test object does not match from the * .js file and project file).
- Ignore — low severity state that means that the test(s) will not run within the GROUP but it can be started by itself – if you select it and press “Run” (“Ignore test” on the “Run Scenario” tab).
