This read-only enumerated value reports the current status of a connectivity/delay test triggered via ausmChanTestType, cycling from notinprogress (default/idle) to inprogress once a test is selected, and finally to passed or failed once the test completes. Admins poll this field after initiating a test to determine the outcome, since the test itself completes in roughly a couple of seconds per the related object's description. For example, after setting ausmChanTestType to testcon, an admin would poll ausmChanTestState until it reports passed or failed to learn whether the connection has end-to-end continuity.
