Results files
Customizing colors
You can modify the colors for these elements in the results file in the Editor
Colors dialog. For more information, see "Using color to indicate structure"
on page 56.
Multiple sets of results
By default, the results file displays the most current execution of the script,
suite, or testplan. However, by default, SilkTest saves the last five sets of
results for each script, suite, or testplan executed.
To change the default number of results sets that SilkTest keeps, edit the
History Size field in the Runtime Options dialog, described on page 487.
