results_summary_view

results_summary_view

The results_summary_view view contains metadata for single-table constraints, table pairs, tests, and connections. The view also contains results of each test in each version of a single-table constraint or table pair.
For each single-table constraint, the *_a columns in the view contain information about the table on which the single-table constraint is based. The *_b columns are null for single-table constraints.
The following table describes the prefixes in the names of the view columns:
Column Prefix
Description
tp_
Single-table constraint or table pair information.
tc_
Test condition information.
tc_rs_
Test results information.
tr_
Run-time information for single-table or table-pair tests.
ti_
Test installation information. Test installation refers to the creation and installation of a PowerCenter mapping based on a single-table constraint or table pair.
conn_
Connection information for the table or file in a single-table constraint or table pair.
The following table describes the view columns that provide run-time information about each test in single-table constraints and table pairs:
