Reading these Results
Published evidence and test coverage answer different questions.
Which scenarios have a Result?
A published Result is public evidence for this tool on one scenario. “No published result” does not say whether testing has taken place.
What does each Result cover?
Assessed includes Pass, Fail and Not gradable. Gradable includes Pass and Fail. Both use the pinned test count in that published Result.
Out of 10 scenarios
The summary counts each of the 10 scenarios once. A scenario fails when any of its published test cases failed. “No published Result yet” means nothing is public for that scenario; it does not say whether Perplexity Sonar was tested on it.
