# View the progress of automated tests

When an automated test is running, view its progress in the Run Test progress dialog.

## Before you begin

The system must be running a test.

Role required: atf\_test\_admin or atf\_test\_designer

## About this task

When you execute a test or test suite, the system automatically displays the Run Test progress dialog. If you close this dialog, you can re-display it from either the results list or the results page for the currently-running test or test suite.

## Procedure

1.  If necessary, navigate to the Test Results list or Test Results page for the currently-running test or test suite.

    -   If the system is currently running a test suite, navigate to **Automated Test Framework** > **Suite Results**. If desired, you can click the row for the running test suite to view the Suite Results page for that test suite.
    -   If the system is currently running a test that's not part of a test suite, navigate to **Automated Test Framework** > **Test Results**. If desired, you can click the row for the running test to view the Test Results page for that test.
2.  Display the Run Test dialog.

    -   If you are currently viewing the Test Results page or the Suite Results page, click **Show Progress** under Related Links.
    -   If you are currently viewing the Test Results list or Suite Results list, right-click the row for the running test or test suite, then click **Show Progress**.
