Verdicts: When to use which verdict?
Last Updated 9 years ago
There are five relevant verdicts with increasing priority from top to bottom (e.g. an error within a test will overwrite each other verdict --> the final result is „error“).
SUCCESS
- Default color: green
- Assigned by: FlashCedere, Testcase developer
- When to use: a test operation has finished successfully without mentionable abnormalities
WARNING
- Default color: yellow
- Assigned by: Testcase developer only
- When to use: something unusual happened and the user needs to be informed about this. However, that abnormal behavior should not be regarded as a failure.
FAILURE
- Default color: red
- Assigned by: FlashCedere, Testcase developer
- When to use: in case of a normal ECU failure. FlashCedere also uses this state to automatically highlight non-matching ECU responses.
- Typical examples: unexpected ECU responses, timeouts
ERROR
- Default color: reddish brown
- Assigned by: FlashCedere, Testcase developer
- When to use: a critical event that is related to the testing environment (e.g. FlashCedere, Interfaces, etc.).
- This status should not occur in a working environment.
- Examples: missing bus interface, uncaught exceptions in FlashCedere or testcase, syntax error in testcase
ABORTED
- Default color: red
- Assigned by: FlashCedere
- Any testcase that has been aborted preemptively will receive this verdict.
