Quality Analyzer

The Quality Analyzer window indicates the overall quality of your project.

It identifies issues that may:

  • Affect the performance of Automation Studio during design-time, for example, having too many tabs open at once

  • Affect performance of your solution during run-time, for example, inclusion of unused screen elements

  • Prevent Automation Studio from working as expected, for example, if using a non-Chrome browser

The Quality Analyzer displays an overall project score which is calculated based on a weighted average of the scores of all the issues analyzed.

Many of the issues listed in the Quality Analyzer are addressed in the Automation Studio Best Practices.
