View test results
We can view test results in the Test Results view, which shows the results of the last test configuration run. We can filter or sort the test results that are displayed in the Test Results view.
About this task
The first time that you run tests against objects in IBM MQ Explorer, the Test Results view opens.
If you close the Test Results view, it reopens the next time you run a test. The view can be reopened manually at any time by clicking Window > Show View > MQ Explorer - Test Results.
Each row in the Test Results view represents a single test result. One test can generate one or more test results. To get more information about a test result, double-click the result. A new window opens to provide a brief explanation of why the test result was generated and whether we must take action.
The Test Results view always shows the test results of the last test configuration run. If you rerun an individual test, the original results of that test are replaced by the new results (or by nothing at all if the problems were resolved) but the rest of the original test results are retained.

We can filter and sort the test results to make it easier to find the information that we need. For more information see Filtering test results in the Test Results view and Sorting test results in the Test Results view.
- Filtering test results in the Test Results view
We can filter the test results that are displayed in the Test Results view so that we can, for example, limit the number of results that are shown at one time, filter the results to show only the errors, or show only results that contain a specific string. - Sorting test results in the Test Results view
We can sort the test results in the Test Results view by specifying which column to sort by and whether to display the results in ascending or descending order.
