Modify how often active client test runners report in to the system and how long the system retains records for inactive client test runners.

Before you begin

Role required: atf_test_admin

About this task

When you start a client test runner, the system registers that runner as active, meaning that it is either running a test or is available to run a test. While the runner is active, it reports in to the system at a specified interval. If the runner does not report in at the expected time, the system marks the runner as inactive. After a period of time the system deletes the runner. This task enables you to modify the Automated Test Framework properties that control these intervals.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to All > Automated Test Framework > Administration > Properties.
  2. Navigate to the Test Runner Properties section.
  3. To set the interval at which active client test runners report in to the system, enter the reporting interval in seconds in the Test runner heartbeat interval field.
  4. To set the period of time a test runner can remain inactive before the system deletes it, enter the period of time in seconds in the Test runner timeout field.
  5. Click Save.
