Each time you run a test, the automated test framework creates a record of the test
results. Use the Test Results module to view details about the results of individual tests and
individual steps within a test. If the test generated screenshots, they appear as attachments on
the test results record.
Each Test Results record displays detailed results information about one test execution,
and contains links to detailed step results and test logs. Step results records display
information about one step in a test result, while test log (test results item) records
contain detailed console logging and test execution information.

By default, the system deletes test and test suite results data 30 days after creation.
You can modify this default retention policy as needed in the Table Cleanup module.{#atf-test-results-module__b3y_nf2_5w}
