# Statuses & results

> The outcomes TestPulse reads, how it picks the latest result, and how they reduce to an execution verdict.

TestPulse reports the **latest result** of each test and reduces them to a single **execution verdict**. Here is exactly how.

## Outcomes

| Outcome            | Meaning                                | Counts as |
| ------------------ | -------------------------------------- | --------- |
| **Passed**         | The test ran and passed.               | Passed    |
| **Failed**         | The test ran and failed.               | Not OK    |
| **Blocked**        | The test could not run (a blocker).    | Not Run   |
| **Not Applicable** | The test does not apply to this scope. | Not Run   |
| **Not Executed**   | Scheduled but not run yet.             | Not Run   |
| **None**           | No result at all for the point.        | Not Run   |

## The "latest result"

A test point can have a history of results. TestPulse takes the **most recent** one (by completion date) — that is the outcome and the *last run* date you see. Change the [scope](/en/work-item/test-coverage-tab) and the latest is recomputed for that plan, in memory, with no new read.

## From outcomes to a verdict

The execution verdict is a **pure reduction** with strict precedence:

1. Any **Failed** → **Not OK**
2. Otherwise any non-passed (Blocked, Not Applicable, Not Executed, None) → **Not Run**
3. Only 100% **Passed** → **Passed**
4. No linked test → **Not covered**

There is **no "partial"**: one failure is enough to make a story Not OK. The verdict always shows an **icon + label**, so it reads correctly in light or dark themes and for colour-blind users, and it **never recolours** the Coverage pill.

<Note>**None** vs **Not Executed**: *None* means the point has no result object at all; *Not Executed* means a result exists but the run hasn't happened. Both read as **Not Run**.</Note>
