Tosca ExecutionLogs: How to Analyze Results

Tosca is a leading test automation tool known for its scriptless approach and powerful test case management features. One of its key capabilities is generating ExecutionLogs after test case execution. These logs provide valuable insights into test results, helping testers quickly identify issues and maintain software quality.

At iHub Talent Training Institute, we guide students through real-time scenarios in Tosca, including how to analyze ExecutionLogs effectively. This blog will walk you through the process step by step.


🧾 What Are Tosca ExecutionLogs?

ExecutionLogs in Tosca are detailed reports generated after a test case or test set is executed. They include:

  • Test steps executed
  • Expected vs. actual outcomes
  • Passed/Failed status
  • Errors or exceptions
  • Execution duration

These logs are crucial for debugging and maintaining test quality.


🔍 How to Access ExecutionLogs

After running a test case or execution list:

Go to the Execution section in Tosca Commander.

Locate the ExecutionList or ExecutionEntry that was just executed.

Right-click on the entry and select View ExecutionLog.

A new window will open, displaying the detailed log.


📊 Key Sections of ExecutionLogs

Summary View

Provides a high-level status: Passed, Failed, or Warning.

Displays total execution time and number of test steps executed.

Details View

Shows each test step with actual values, expected values, and results.

Useful for pinpointing exactly where a failure occurred.

Log Info

Contains system logs, execution timestamps, and any warnings or errors raised by the test engine.

Attachments

Includes screenshots or files captured during execution (if configured).


✅ How to Analyze Execution Results

Check Status Colors:

Green = Passed, Red = Failed, Yellow = Warning.

Compare Actual vs. Expected:

Look closely at the “Actual” and “Expected” columns to understand mismatches.

Use Filters:

Filter by status or test step type to focus on problem areas quickly.

Inspect Screenshots/Logs:

If your test includes screenshot verification, use them to confirm UI issues.


🎓 Final Thoughts

Understanding and analyzing ExecutionLogs is essential for effective test automation. It allows you to debug quickly, improve test case quality, and deliver reliable software.
