Exclusions Tab

When a Deployment Test is run on a package, some of the tests related to Class IDs, Prog IDs, and Type Library

IDs fail because they refer to components which belong to the operating system rather than the software which is

being tested. These errors have no impact on the integrity of the software being tested, and cause confusion

among some users testing the software. Users need to be able to prevent error messages caused by files that are

not affecting the performance of the software package to be listed in the test results.

files to be excluded when any of the Class ID, Prog ID, or Type Library ID Deployment Tests are run. You can
