Summary Information

When you click the Summary tab, it displays the following information about the tests in a folder that are selected by the current configuration:

Field Description
Passed The number of tests in a folder and all of its subordinate folders that were run and passed
Failed The number of tests in a folder and all of its subordinate folders that were run and failed
Error The number of tests in a folder and all of its subordinate folders that were run but had errors
Not run The number of tests in a folder and all of its subordinate folders that have not been run and were not filtered out
Sub-Total The total number of tests that were selected to run
Filtered Out The total number of tests in a folder and all of its subordinate folders that were filtered out. Tests that were filtered out include tests that you omitted from the test run by using keywords, prior status, or exclude lists.
Total Total number of tests in a folder and its subordinate folders.

When using the Current Configuration view filter, the numbers are recalculated anytime you use the configuration editor to make a change that effects the view filter. Click the appropriate status information tab to identify the individual tests in a category.

The following test is a Note
The default view filter is Current Configuration. If you set Prior Status as a filter in the Current Configuration or are using a custom filter with "Prior Status" set as a filter, tests will "move" during test execution from their previous status (i.e. failed ) to the filtered out category, not to their new status (i.e. passed). This is the correct, expected behavior because the GUI only displays those tests that match your view filter setting.

Example:
If you choose to run only the failed tests, the tree and statistics show you only the tests currently in the failed state. When tests are no longer in the failed state, they move to the filtered out category. Consequently, when you choose to run only failed tests, as each test passes, it is moved to the filtered out category and the appropriate nodes in the tree turn grey.

To avoid this behavior and view all test results, you should use a different view filter:
