View Scheduled Tasks
QMetry runs activities in the background as Scheduled Tasks, so you can continue with other work while it completes. The Scheduled Tasks screen shows the status of each job and lets you download error logs when a job fails.
The Schedule Tasks icon turns Orange in color whenever any of the following actions is initialized. The icon color changes to the original as soon as you click to view the task status.

Filtering Scheduled Tasks
You filter the task list to find specific activities. You filter on status, activity, project, and module, and you apply a date range to fetch records from a specific period.
Automation Result Import
When you import automation test results through the Automation API, the Scheduled Tasks screen shows the job status along with import details such as the framework, the request ID, and the test suite created by the import. The automation result import also uses the Not Started status for a process that is not yet initialized.
In addition to other statuses, the progress bar also shows the "Not Started" status for the import process which has not been initialized yet.
