## Presenter Confidence Test

The Presenter Confidence test requires user interaction. You must press one of three keys to continue or abort each test: `p` for test passed, `f` for test failed, or `Esc` to abort the Confidence tests. Some tests prompt you to press `t` to toggle the display. There are a total of 17 tests, all of which display text output on the lower half of the screen. This text provides information on what you should expect to see, and what options are available to select when the tests are complete.

Once the test is passed, press `p`, (pass); if failed, press `f` (fail) or `Esc` (abort). If you press `p` or `f`, the Presenter Confidence test continues. At the end of the test, a notifier displays the number of failures and indicates which tests were failed. If you press `Esc` to abort the tests, a notifier informs you that the tests were aborted and also reports any failures that were encountered during the current test session.
