Description Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2006-02-02 14:35:51 EST
[Usability] Test log viewer is difficult to use with long test suite names and large execution logs.

When viewing http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/test-results/platform/org.eclipse.hyades.logging.core.tests/junit_results/Windows_IA32/org.eclipse.hyades.logging.core.tests.junit.AllTests.Windows_IA32.execution?cvsroot=TPTP_Project, the following usability issues exist:

-Due to the long test suite names, the Common Properties, Detailed Properties and navigation toolbar sections are difficult to access (e.g. scrolling to the far right to access (horizontal orientation)).  Consider having the navigation toolbar at the top-left and allowing the user to adjust the divider between the Events section and the Common Properties and Detailed Properties sections (horizontal orientation)).  Finally, consider having a preference for displaying the test suite in the Events section (e.g. only display the test case/method name).

-Due to the large execution log, the Common Properties, Detailed Properties and navigation toolbar sections are difficult to access (e.g. scrolling to the top and far right to access (horizontal orientation)).  Consider using a fixed size (both width and height) for the view with only the Events section scrollable.

-Once one or more test execution events are expanded, the Events section displays a scrollbar forcing the user to manipulate both scrollbars to navigate the execution log. Consider using just one scrollbar in the Events section.

Driver :TPTP-4.3.0-200610090100.

As an example, check out the
test-results/monitor/org.eclipse.hyades.logging.core.tests,expanding a folder
under the junit_results. It takes around 2 minutes to expand it. Once I even
got an OutOfMemory exception.

Disregard comment #3 and comment #4.
Comment 6 Bianca Jiang CLA 2006-11-01 11:13:02 EST
This was fixed during 4.2. Both Overview and Events pages are presented without a horizontal scroll bar by default. Instead if the events tree section on Events page contains tree node that's too long to display, the tree section uses a horizontal scroll bar.  and the whole page layout is not affected by selection of individual event.
