Applying a Result Filter

There are two methods for applying a result filter. You can apply a filter to only the active Result window or you can apply a result filter to all opened Result windows.

  1. Open a result.
  2. To apply the result filter to only the active Result window, select a filter from the Filter Results By Type Selection list from the Result window toolbar. Silk Test Workbench applies the filter to the active Result window and updates the title bar with the name of the filter. For example: Silk Test Workbench - [Common - VisualTest1 (Result: Filter = Only Failed Verifications)]
  3. To apply a result filter to all open Result windows, perform the following steps.
    1. Open a result.
    2. Select the filter that you want to apply.
    3. Click Apply, and then click OK. Silk Test Workbench applies the filter to the active Result window and updates the title bar with the name of the filter. For example: Silk Test Workbench - [Common - VisualTest1 (Result: Filter = Only Failed Verifications)]
    After creating a result filter, it appears in the drop-down list immediately to the left of the Manage Filter toolbar button on the Result window toolbar. When you select a filter from this list, Silk Test Workbench applies it to all opened Result windows and updates the title bar with the name of the filter.
