About the test process monitor

The test process monitor provides an integrated monitoring feature that helps project managers and test engineers obtain a statistical analysis of the progress of their development effort.

Each generated metric is stored in its own file and consists of one or more fields.

The test process monitor works by gathering the statistical data from these files and then generating a graphical chart based on each field.

The preexistence of a file is required before running the test process monitor. Files are created either by running a runtime analysis feature that generates test process data, or by creating and updating your own file.

Note Only the Code Coverage tool provides data for the test process monitor. You can, however, build your own files with the Test Process Monitor tool (tpmadd).
