[Salesforce] The Sobject Crusade: ApexTestResult

Source: ApexTestResult

After you execute a test class (ApexTestQueueItem), you'll get the test results of a given test method execution.

To query this information use the ApexTestResult object.

The object conveys the following fields:

• ApexClassId: the test class
• ApexLogId: the ApexLog object (if log is enabled)
• AsyncApexJobId: the main aync job (this is the same as ApexTestQueueItem.ParentJobId) to which the given test execution belongs
• Message: the exception message, only if an exception occurs
• MethodName: the test method name of the given log
• Outcome: the result of the test method execution (Fail, Pass, CompileFail)
• QueueItemId: lookup to the ApexTestQueueItem the result belogs to
• StackTrace: exception stack trace (if any)
• TestTimestamp: test execution date/time

To launch a test, see the instructions on the ApexTestQueueItem object page.

Now you can query for the results:

Select Id, ApexClass.Name, MethodName, ApexLogId, Outcome, TestTimestamp, AsyncApexJobId, QueueItemId From ApexTestResult order by TestTimestamp DESC

Given this failing test class:

@isTest
private class ExceptionTestClass {
    
    private static testmethod void failMethod(){
     update new Case(Subject = 'Test');
    }
}

The execution will lead to a test error:
