# Configure Menu

Use the Configure menu to load, create, modify, and view configuration data used for a test run. The following table describes the default menu items in the Configure menu. Because this menu can be customized you might see additional options defined in the current test suite.

The template menu options listed in the following table are only available when template usage is enabled.

Menu Item | Description
--- | ---
Edit Configuration | Opens the Configuration Editor and loads the current configuration. The harness uses the Configuration Editor to change configuration values required to run a test suite. See Editing a Configuration for detailed information.
Edit Template | Opens the Template Editor and loads the template on which the current configuration is based. If the test suite disables the template feature, this and all other template menu items are not displayed. This menu item is also disabled when the test suite only enables users to load but not edit templates. Use the Template Editor to change configuration values in the template and to propagate the changes to the current configuration. See Editing a Template for detailed information.
Edit Quick Set | Opens an additional menu containing Tests to Run, Exclude List (optional), Keywords (optional), Environment (optional), Prior Status, Concurrency, and Timeout Factor menu items that you can use to change specific configuration values. See Editing Quick Set Values for detailed information.
New Configuration | Opens the Configuration Editor and loads an empty configuration. The harness uses the Configuration Editor to create configuration data containing the test environment and standard values required to run a test suite. See Creating a Configuration for detailed information.
