Monitor the execution of TestEvents and ExecutionLists
Once you press Execute Now, Tosca Commander transfers your TestEvents to the Tosca Distribution Server. Use the Distributed Execution Monitor to monitor the execution of these TestEvents and the ExecutionLists that they contain.
Monitor TestEvents
To view the current status of your TestEvents on the server, open the Distributed Execution Monitor and navigate to the Event View.
The Event View contains the following information:
-
A status bar with summary information on the status of your TestEvents.
-
Columns with detailed information on the last 10 TestEvents.

The status bar indicates the total number of TestEvents that you have forwarded to be executed as well as the status of these TestEvents:
