Main Description
| This artifact provides a detailed, typically time-based record that serves both as verification that a set of tests were
executed, and provides information relating to the success of those tests. The focus is creating an accurate record, which
enables a post-execution diagnosis of test results. This raw data will subsequently be analyzed to help determine the
results of some aspect of the test effort. |

| Representation Options |
Since this is a collection of raw data for subsequent analysis, it can be represented in a number of ways.
Some suggestions are:
-
For manual tests, log the actual results on a copy of the manual Test Script
-
For automated tests, direct the output to log files that you can trace back to the automated Test Script
-
Track raw results data in a test management tool.
