- The passed count, failed count, and error count are displayed on the Test Editor page.
Click the Console tab to view information such as error messages, logs, and the test verdict.
You can then use this output to troubleshoot issues by reviewing details, such as session IDs and error messages.

At any point, you can stop the test manually by clicking the Stop playback icon . When stopped, the test status is displayed as Stopped by User on the progress bar and Inconclusive on the Results tab.
