This section shows you how to work the ATC Results Browser view in ABAP Development Tools (ADT).

Browsing ATC Results

The ATC Result Browser allows you to browse through the ATC results for each ABAP Project (representing a connection to an ABAP system) created in your ADT Workspace. On the top level, the view displays the active ATC result replicated from the central quality system. In addition, the user can display the results of their own local ATC check runs executed in the connected system, or browse the ATC check results from other users.

Remember The ATC findings in the active result may be outdated if the code in the development system has been corrected in the meantime.
