-snRun QualityMonitor silently without any user interaction and no progress display.
-sbRun QualityMonitor silently with a progress display. QualityMonitor displays the test names as they are executed and provides an option for the user to cancel.
-r <Report File>Generates a report file &lt;c:\\report\.htm&gt; with the test results. Works only when using either `‑sn` or `‑sb`.
-f <Project File>Save test results in this file. This is necessary when using either `‑sn` or `‑sb`. If this file does not exist, it will be created and then results will be saved.

-h or -?Help
note

When using any -sn or -sb command line options, you can specify the target product using the existing options /c or /f.

  • If you use the /f option to specify the product, the input file will be modified with the test results.
  • If you use /c to specify the target product, /f options must be used to specify the project file path which will have the test results.
  • If both /c and /f parameters are specified, then QualityMonitor gives preference to /c and operates with the product code specified by /c.
