Starting an NQA Test Instance

Context

After completing the configuration of an NQA test instance, start the NQA test instance in following modes:

Start the NQA test instance immediately.
Start the NQA test instance at a specified time.
Start the NQA test instance after a delay.

If the test fails, restart the NQA test instance in the next time period.

If the number of running test instances reaches the maximum value defined by the system, the start command is invalid.
For the same test instance, the start now command can be used again only when the previous test is complete.
The specified time to start a test instance must be later than the current time of the device.
