20<p>The CTS test results are placed in the file:</p>
21<pre>
22$CTS_ROOT/android-cts/repository/results/&lt;start_time>.zip
23</pre>
24
25<p>If you have built the CTS yourself, <em>$CTS_ROOT</em> will resemble the
26path <em>out/host/linux-x86/cts</em> but differ by platform. This reflects the
27path where you have uncompressed the prebuilt official CTS <a
28href="{@docRoot}compatibility/downloads.html">downloaded</a> from this site.</p>
29
30<p>Inside the zip, the testResult.xml file contains the actual results—open
31this file in any web browser (HTML5 compatible browser recommended) to view the
32test results. It will resemble the following screenshots.</p>
33
34<p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> The results are provided to help you
35ensure the software remains compatible throughout the development process and
36act as a common format for communicating the compatibility status of your
37device with other parties.</p>

44<p>If testResult.xml displays a blank page when using the Chrome browser,
45<a href="https://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/run-chromium-with-flags">change
46your browser configuration</a> to enable the
47<em>--allow-file-access-from-files</em> command line flag.</p>

49<p>The Device Information section provides details about the device, firmware
50(make, model, firmware build, platform), and device hardware (screen
51resolution, keypad, screen type).  To access device information, click the link
52above Test Summary.</p>
53
54<p>The <em>Test Summary</em> section provides executed test plan details, like
55the CTS plan name and execution start and end times. It also presents an
56aggregate summary of the number of tests that passed, failed, timed out, or
57could not be executed.</p>
58<p>The next section also provides a summary of tests passed per package.</p>

65<p>This is followed by details of the the actual tests that were executed. The
66report lists the test package, test suite, test case, and the executed tests.
67It shows the result of the test execution—pass, fail, timed out, or not
68executed. In the event of a test failure details are provided to help diagnose
69the cause.</p>
70
71<p>Further, the stack trace of the failure is available in the XML file but is
72not included in the report to ensure brevity—viewing the XML file with a text
73editor should provide details of the test failure (search for the
74<em>&lt;Test&gt;</em> tag corresponding to the failed test and look within it
75for the <em>&lt;StackTrace&gt;</em> tag).</p>
