The Test Protocol Explorer lists all test protocols found inside the test protocol directory, see Test Reports. A selected test protocol can be displayed as a new register tab inside the Protocol Viewer. The Protocol Viewer lists all TestCases of the test protocol as a structured tree. Each TestCase for each TestContext displays its result, the execution time and the used memory. Multiple protocols of the same test can be compared, so that differenced can be found quickly. The following section describes the Test Protocol Explorer and the Test Protocol Viewer.

Note: If the window is not visible, it can bis switched on inside "Display" tab.

Control	Type	Description
Add to new protocol viewer	`Button`	The selected test protocol will be opened inside a new Protocol Viewer.

Delete	`Button`	The selected test protocol will be deleted.
Protocol Viewer Result	`Column`	The result of the `TestCase`. Possible values are `Passed`, `Failed`, `Ignored` or `Inconclusive`.

Protocol Viewer Message	`Column`	The optional description of a not passed `TestCase`. Multiple Reports: Concatenation of descriptions if multiple `TestCases` are not passed.

Note: If multiple reports are compared inside one Protocol Viewer, the name of the columns refers to the unique ID of the test report.
