Starting the Windows Bitmap Tool

You can now open existing bitmaps created in SilkTest or in the tool, or
you can capture new bitmaps:
From SilkTest results
file
When the verification of a bitmap fails in a testcase, SilkTest saves the actual
result in a bitmap file with the same name as the baseline bitmap but with the
extension .rmp. So, if the bitmap file testbase.bmp fails the comparison,
SilkTest names the result bitmap file testbase.rmp. It also logs an error
message in the results file, as shown in the following figure.
Note In some cases this error message does not reflect an actual
error. In particular, when SilkTest compares a bitmap it captured
with one captured in the bitmap tool, the comparison fails because
SilkTest stores footer information in its bitmap. The bitmaps might
in fact be identical in all ways except for this information.
