Running tests
You can run any number and combination of tests from the current test set at the same time. However, it is a good idea to run a test on just one interview before starting more extensive tests as this will confirm that your tests work as expected. For example, you can look to see whether the sample table has been updated if the project uses sample management, and you can verify that case data has been written for the interview.
When a test is running, you can pause it and change the delay between pages on the Respondent tab. (Changing other parameters will produce undefined results.) When released, the test continues using the new setting. You can also stop a test if the results so far have provided all the information you need.
Note If you select more than one test at a time, the actions you can take depend on the current state of the selected tests, and only actions that are suitable for all tests are available. For example, if you select a test that is already running, the Run action will not be available even though it may be suitable for other tests in the group you have chosen.

2 Click the Run button .
The status column for those tests changes to show the Run symbol.
3 If you are running more than one test, select one of those tests in the Test frame and UNICOM Intelligence Load Tool displays details about the its progress in the rest of the window.
