Test Suite Dialog Box

When the JavaTest harness creates a new desktop it checks the following:

  1. Has it been started in a work directory or test suite?
  2. Has it been installed with a test suite?

If the JavaTest harness cannot locate and open a test suite when it creates a new desktop, it displays a dialog box that guides you through the process of opening a test suite or a work directory:

Button Function
Open Test Suite Click this button to locate and use a test suite.
Open Work Directory Click this button to use an existing work directory. When you open an existing work directory, the JavaTest harness also opens the test suite associated with it.

You can also use the Test Manager window to change test suites or work directories after the JavaTest GUI is running:

The following text is a Note
The next time you start the JavaTest harness it automatically opens the test suite and work directory for you without displaying the Welcome to JavaTest dialog box.

After you specify a work directory, you can use the Test Manager window to configure and run tests. Refer to Using the JavaTest Harness for a description of how to begin running tests.
