Performing a test list¶
An example test list is shown below. Details about all the features will given below but briefly, you can see all the tests completed and ready to be submitted. The shaded input boxes for the last two tests indicate that they are composite tests i.e. they are test values calculated based on the other 4 input values. Passing, tolerance and failing tests are displayed with a green, yellow or red status, respectively. Tests which have no reference or tolerance set for them are shown in blue.

Skipping a test¶
Occasionally it may be required to skip a test when performing a test list. To accomplish this, check off the skip checkbox next to the test and add a comment (required unless the user has the Can skip without comment permission) explaining why you are skipping the test.
Skipping a single test
Performing a subset of a test list¶
Some test lists may have tests from more than one category type. To selectively perform the tests from one or more categories, use the select box from the left hand drawer menu to choose the test categories you want to perform. Tests from categories that are not selected, will be hidden and marked as skipped with a comment explaining why.

Attaching Files to your session¶
When performing QA, you may attach arbitrary documents to the test list before submitting (e.g. a PDF report from some external software).
In order to do this, simply click the Browse button and select the files you want to attach.

These files will be saved and available for review later.
Keyboard Shortcuts¶
There are currently a limited number of keyboard shortcuts available when performing a test list:
- Use the up/down arrow keys to navigate between test input fields
- Hit Enter or Tab to cycle through the test input fields
More keyboard shortcuts will be made available in the future.
Saving a test list to complete it later¶
If for some reason you need to finish a test list at a later time, you can click the Mark this list as still in progress checkbox next to the Submit QA Results button. When this box is checked, the test list will not be considered complete and will not be marked for review.
