Information Shown for an Error Message
Test result messages are displayed in the right pane of the Test & Resolve view when a Package, Test
Category, or Message node is selected. For each error that is found, a message node is listed under the
appropriate Test Category node:

If one test finds more than one file or component in the package that produces an error, multiple message nodes,
sequentially numbered, are listed under the test category node. In the above example, the Null Component ID
test in the Windows Vista Logo Guidelines test category produced four errors.
Information Shown in Summary Listings
When a Package or Test Category node is selected, a summary listing of all of the errors found in that package
or test category is shown. For each error, the following information is displayed, explaining the cause of the error:
