Error description
When running 'test connection' on a device, you get a popup that does not clearly state "connection to the device was successful" or "connection to the device failed". instead you get a message that says 'task completed' or 'task failed'. this is unclear and leaves the user wondering whether the task itself succeeded or failed, or the actual connection test.
