The goal of a test run is for the root test suite folder to become green signifying all tests in the test suite that are not filtered out have passed. Use the filters to specify tests or groups of tests whose results are displayed in the test tree. Using filters when browsing the tree makes it possible to easily monitor folders containing tests that have not passed.

When you click a folder icon in the test tree, the JavaTest harness displays its folder view in the Test Manager information area. The information in the folder view is changed by the view filter.
