Dashboard
The Dashboard screen provides a graphical summary of the results generated by the following apps and workflows:
The Dashboard screen allows you to access several LiveCompare features, including the apps user interface. LiveCompare displays the Dashboard screen when a user with Editor or Consumer permissions signs in. You can also access it by selecting the 
button in the studio.
Dashboard charts
The Dashboard home page displays the charts listed below. A scheduled task named Tricentis LiveCompare Dashboard runs each night on the LiveCompare server to update the charts with the latest impact analysis results.
Hover over a node or column in a chart to display its numerical value. Select Export to PNG underneath each chart to export the chart to a .png file, or Show as table to display the chart’s data in a Data Grid.
Test Coverage by Pipeline
For each Pipeline LiveCompare uses for impact analysis, this column chart shows the number of most-at-risk objects that matched a test in the Pipeline’s Most-at-risk Search Test Repositories. The dates indicate the year and month when LiveCompare ran the impact analysis app or workflow.
Most-at-risk by Pipeline
For each Pipeline LiveCompare uses for impact analysis, this column chart shows the number of objects that LiveCompare identified as Most-at-risk. LiveCompare recommends these objects for testing. The dates indicate the year and month when LiveCompare ran the impact analysis app or workflow.
Test Gaps by Pipeline
For each Pipeline LiveCompare uses for impact analysis, this line chart shows the number of most-at-risk objects that didn’t match a test in the Pipeline’s Most-at-risk Search Test Repositories. The dates indicate the year and month when LiveCompare ran the impact analysis app or workflow.
Used by Pipeline
For each Pipeline LiveCompare uses for impact analysis, this column chart shows the number of used objects retrieved for the Pipeline’s Usage System in its PHD tab. The dates indicate the year and month when LiveCompare ran the impact analysis app or workflow.
Demonstration data
If a LiveCompare Administrator sets the DashboardDemoData field to X in the Configuration - General screen, the Dashboard screen’s charts will include demonstration data for two pipelines named __Demo Pipeline 1__ and __Demo Pipeline 2__. You can use the data to demonstrate the Dashboard screen’s charts without running any impact analyses.
LiveCompare adds the demonstration data to the charts when the Task Scheduler next runs the Tricentis LiveCompare Dashboard task on the LiveCompare server.
