> Test the current query parameters.

> When you test a query, you are testing only the query parameters associated with the subscription, not the destination and schedule controls.

> The console are executes the query parameters against the data in the Event Repository, and displays the results in XML. The query will return successfully. You must look at the XML results and decide whether they are what you expect to see given the query parameters you have added to the query. If the results are not what you want, modify the parameters and values until you are satisfied.
