Test Case ID
The test case is automatically assigned a Test Case ID number, although you can change this number, if desired. You can refer to this Test Case ID number when creating scoring overrides or looking at the Health Result Details Tab in the End-Systems tab.
Test Name
You can use this field to change or edit the test case name, if desired.
Mode
Use the drop-down list to select the test mode:
  • Match Any - A match with any of the Registry Key Test Cases will pass the test.
  • Match All - A match with all of the Registry Key Test Cases is required to pass the test.
Test Status
Use the Test Status drop-down list to specify a status for this test. The status determines how the score returned by the assessment test will be used.
  • Disabled - The test will not be run.
  • Informational - The test will be run and test score results will be reported, but are not applied towards a quarantine decision. No end-systems will be quarantined.
  • Warning - Test score results are only used to provide end user assessment warnings via the Notification portal web page. No end-systems will be quarantined unless a grace period (if specified) has expired.
  • Mandatory - Test score results will be included as part of the quarantine decision, and end-systems can be quarantined. If the status is Mandatory, the end-system will fail the test if the registry key is not found or if the registry key is found, but the value does not match. For the KEY EXIST and KEY NOT EXIST options, if the status is Mandatory, the end-system will fail the test if the registry is found or not found respectively.
The default scoring for agent-based tests is 0 for pass and 10 for fail. You can use scoring overrides if you wish to customize the default scoring.
Operating System(s)
Use the checkboxes in the drop-down list to select the operating systems that this test case will apply to. This list is automatically populated with all the operating systems on which this test can be performed.
Menu Button Use the configuration menu button to open the Manage Operating Systems window where you can add a new operating system for selection.
