Adding a new Performance Rating Test

This page will appear when you click on the Add New Performance Rating Test button in the PERFORMANCE RATING TESTS page.

1. The Test tab page will then appear. Here, specify the name of the Performance Rating test that you wish to add in the Test display name text box.

2. Once the test name is specified, you need to provide a description of the test in the Description text box.

3. Select the component type to which you wish to associate your test from the Component type list.

   Note:

   The Component Type list will be populated only with the component types that are managed in your infrastructure.

4. Next, specify whether the Performance Rating test of your choice is descriptor based or not by selecting Yes or No against the Is this test a descriptor based test? flag. By default, this flag is set to No.

5. If the Is this a descriptor based test? flag is set to No, then, clicking the Add button will invoke the Measure tab page.

6. Alternately, if you want your Performance Rating test to derive its descriptors from a test associated with the chosen Component type, then, set the Is this a descriptor based test? flag to Yes. The Derive descriptors from the test list will then appear listing all the tests applicable to the chosen Component type.

7. Select a test from the Derive descriptors from the test list, and then click the Add button to add the new Performance Rating test.
