# Compare Test Cases

The Test Manager allows you to compare the expected and actual responses of a test case. To do this, select a test case. The system displays the list of previous runs in the *Run Details* section. Select any row in the section and click ***Show Details***.

The system displays a comparison screen that shows the last execution status of the test case with the expected and actual responses. If there is no difference between the two the system shows a message saying the expected response is the same as the actual response.

If a test case fails, you can view the list of differences to identify the problem. The system displays the expected and actual results. Click a difference and the editor moves to the line number where a difference was identified. This is highlighted in red.

To download the expected and the actual response, click the arrow next to the heading. The system downloads the file in .txt format and stores it in your default download folder. You can also copy the content from the screen and copy and paste it into another comparison tool.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://community-test.logicnets.com/release-9/platform-documentation/test-manager/compare-test-cases.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
