Pull Request for Issue #36453

Summary of Changes

This PR updates the wording from "Run Test" to "Run Task" for both the button and modal title in the Task Scheduler interface. The update provides clearer language, as the task being executed may not be a test but an actual scheduled or one-time operation.

Issue #36453 pointed out that the term “Run Test” could be misleading. Another PR (#36725) attempted a broader solution but appears abandoned and unnecessarily complex. This PR keeps the fix simple and focused.

Testing Instructions

  1. Navigate to the Task Scheduler where tasks can be run manually.
  2. Confirm that the “Run Test” button and modal now read “Run Task” instead.
  3. Check that the functionality remains unchanged — only the language is updated.
  4. Optionally test in different languages if language files are affected.

Actual result BEFORE applying this Pull Request

  • Button label says: Run Test
  • Modal heading says: Run Test

This can be misleading when executing non-test tasks.

Expected result AFTER applying this Pull Request

  • Button label says: Run Task
  • Modal heading says: Run Task

Improves clarity for users manually running tasks.

Thanks for the heads up! I missed that #45313 already addressed this more completely. Closing this one in favor of the more complete solution. It’s still great practice and learning. If you'd like, I can help you pick another good first issue in Joomla to work on.
