The topics in this section explain the test activity, or functional test, that is performed when a test case is executed. The test activity is selected on the Test Configuration tab in the Test Case Settings window for the test case. Some tests are designed for a specific application or test case, and others are available in some or all test cases. The table below lists the test activities and the applications and test cases in which they are available.
