Running QA Checks

When you have finished translating, you can run QA checks on your document. These checks verify, for example, that all segments have been translated and the correct terminology was used.

Procedure

  1. Click Run QA Checks .

  2. In the Run QA Checks window, select which QA checks you want to run.
    • Format Paint/Tags - this checks that the target text contains all format paint that is present in the source and fails if any tags are missing or incomplete.

      • Require same order - This checks that the tags are in the same order as they appear in the source.
    • Terminology - this checks that the target text contains any term hits from the configured terminology sequence and fails if any of the target terms are not present.
    • All Segments Confirmed - this checks that all segments for the current task have been confirmed and fails if any of the segments are not confirmed.
    • All Segments Translated - this checks whether the target text is different from the source text and fails if the translation is the same as the source text.
    • Numbers - this checks that the numbers in the source text are in the correct format for the target country.
    • Number Separators - this checks how the thousands and decimals in the source text should differ from the target thousands and decimal characters.
  3. Select if you want to exclude certain classes of segments from the QA checks. You may want to do this for segments that do not need further verification.
    • 100% matches
    • Autopropagated Segments
    • Locked Segments
  4. Click Verify. The results are displayed in the QA Check Results window.

    This symbol indicates if a QA check found no errors.

    This symbol indicates that there were errors found and lists the segment numbers containing the errors.

  5. If an error was found, click the segment number to go to that segment and correct the error.
  6. After you have fixed all of the errors, run the QA checks again.
