Abstract

Disclosed are various methods of presenting result visualizations for test results. The visualization may include a timeline, a test label area, a test parameter indicator, and a test value representation. The test label area includes a test label associated with the test. The test parameter indicator is associated with the test provided at a location corresponding with the test label of the test label area and with a location corresponding to a test time of the timeline, including a first test parameter indicator end associated with the upper test parameter threshold and a second test parameter indicator end associated with a lower test parameter threshold. The test value representation of a test value extends away from the test parameter indicator and proportionally represents the test value relative to an upper test limit and the test value to a lower test limit.

First claim

What is claimed:

1. A system for displaying test results, the system comprising:
at least one processor;
and one or more computer readable storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
access a test result comprising a test value, the test result being associated with a test comprising an upper test parameter threshold and a lower test parameter threshold;
render a graphical user interface (GUI) comprising:
a timeline extending in a first direction of the GUI;
a test label area comprising a test label associated with the test, the test label area extending in a second direction of the GUI, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction;
a first test parameter indicator associated with the test provided at a location corresponding with the test label of the test label area, and with a location corresponding to a test time of the timeline, the first test parameter indicator extending in the second direction from a first test parameter indicator end associated with the upper test parameter threshold to a second test parameter indicator end associated with the lower test parameter threshold;
a second test parameter indicator parallel to and spaced apart from the first test parameter indicator;
and a test value representation of the test value beginning at the first test parameter indicator and extending in the first direction towards the second test parameter indicator, wherein in response to the test value being at or between the upper test parameter threshold and the lower test parameter threshold:
the test value representation being displayed as intersecting the first test parameter indicator at or between the first test parameter indicator end and the second test parameter indicator end, wherein an intersection location proportionally represents the test value relative to the upper test parameter threshold and the test value relative to the lower test parameter threshold, and the test value representation extending towards but not connecting with the second test parameter indicator to visually represent a threshold not being exceeded;
and wherein in response to the test value exceeding the upper test parameter threshold or the lower test parameter threshold:
the test value representation being displayed as intersecting the first test parameter indicator at an intersection location at the first test parameter indicator end or at the second test parameter indicator end, and the test value representation extending to connect with the second test parameter indicator to visually represent a threshold being exceeded;
and provide the rendered GUI for display at a display of a computing device.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system is configured to, in response to the test value representation intersecting the first test parameter indicator at the first test parameter indicator end based on the test value exceeding the upper test parameter threshold, display the test value representation having a test value representation width measured in the second direction that is greater than a test parameter indicator width, of the first test parameter indicator, measured in the first direction.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system is configured to, in response to the test value representation intersecting the first test parameter indicator at the second test parameter indicator end based on the test value exceeding the lower test parameter threshold, display the test value representation having a test value representation width measured in the second direction that is greater than a test parameter indicator width, of the first test parameter indicator, as measured in the first direction.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the GUI further comprises a numerical value associated with the test value adjacent to the first test parameter indicator, and wherein the at least one processor is further caused to:
receive a compressing input;
modify a first scale of the timeline to a second scale of the timeline, the second scale of the timeline comprising a greater timespan than the first scale; and
based on the modification from the first scale to the second scale of the timeline, remove the numerical value associated with the test value.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further caused to:
receive a compressing input; and
based on the compressing input, modify a first length of the test value representation to a second length of the test value representation, the second length being less than the first length, and the first length and the second length being measured in the first direction.

6. One or more computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to generate a graphical user interface (GUI) for displaying test results at a computing device, the GUI comprising:
a timeline extending in a first direction of the GUI;
a test label area comprising a test label associated with a test, the test label area extending in a second direction of the GUI, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the test is associated with an upper test parameter threshold and a lower test parameter threshold, and wherein the test is associated with a test result comprising a test value;
a first test parameter indicator associated with the test provided at a location corresponding with the test label of the test label area, and with a location corresponding to a test time of the timeline, the first test parameter indicator extending in the second direction from a first test parameter indicator end associated with the upper test parameter threshold to a second test parameter indicator end associated with the lower test parameter threshold;
a second test parameter indicator parallel to and spaced apart from the first test parameter indicator;
and a test value representation of the test value beginning at the first test parameter indicator and extending in the first direction towards the second text parameter indicator, wherein in response to the test value being at or between the upper test parameter threshold and the lower test parameter threshold:
the test value representation intersecting the first test parameter indicator at or between the first test parameter indicator end and the second test parameter indicator end, wherein an intersection location proportionally represents the test value relative to the upper test parameter threshold and the test value relative to the lower test parameter threshold, and the test value representation extending towards but not connecting with the second test parameter indicator to visually represent a threshold not being exceeded;
and wherein in response to the test value exceeding the upper test parameter threshold or the lower test parameter threshold:
the test value representation being displayed as intersecting the first test parameter indicator at an intersection location at the first test parameter indicator end or at the second test parameter indicator end, and extending to connect with the second test parameter indicator to visually represent a threshold being exceeded.

7. The media of claim 6 , wherein in response to the test value exceeding the upper test parameter threshold, the test value representation is displayed having a test value representation width measured in the second direction that is greater than a test parameter indicator width, of the first test parameter indicator, measured in the first direction.

8. The media of claim 7 , wherein the test value representation width is greater than a second test parameter indicator width of the seco
