We run tests in Verify mode to test your application. Each time WinRunner encounters a checkpoint in the test script, it compares the current data of the application being tested to the expected data captured earlier. If any mismatches are found, WinRunner captures them as actual results.

The test result contains information about the steps which are pass and failed due to defect in the AUT. If there is any mismatch in the checkpoints it is also reported as fail in the result. Based on this we can report the defects to QA manager through mail or report the defects in Quality Center.
