Main test:

Maintest calls the all scripts which are written for different modules including user defined functions and compiled modules. Briefly complete scripts called it is as maintest. ( some times we call startup script as maintest, because from where we call all other test scripts using Call statement)

Compiled Module:

when ever we are frequently using same function repeatedly, we can that function as common function that means just we write scrit once, place in common pool and reuse (call that function) where ever you need to perform same function again.
Now if you use load or reload to load any common function into memory then we call that loaded function as compiled module. The advantage with compiled module is one time it will compile and load it in to memory, so that if you call again, it will directly call from memory without compiling again, this increases performance.

Sorry if there are any spelling mistakes
