Messages

There are three types of diagnostic messages. Click on an individual message to display the specific channel or DataMode in the web interface.

Informational message. These are friendly reminders or additional information to help configure setups. They have no impact on test runs.
Warning. This indicates a possible error. Warnings may or may not cause problems with the test engine. They may also indicate configuration inconsistencies or ambiguities. Users should investigate these warnings carefully and take any action if necessary. Depending on system preferences, a test run may or may not be started with warning level errors.
Error. These are errors that prevent a test run from being started.

Diagnostic messages are recalculated upon completion of individual values. For spreadsheet entries, validation takes place only after focus moves away from the cell. While the cell is considered to be in edit mode, no validations take place.

If the validation finds any errors or messages, appropriate cell or rows are highlighted and a message is added to the diagnostic messages list. If existing errors have been addressed, the highlighting and diagnostic message are removed.
