Default ran/run or a just wrong

We removed this result from the procedure. It was information from a test that is no longer ran.

We removed this result from the procedure. It was information from a test that is no longer run.

We removed this result from the procedure. It was information from test that isn't ran/run anymore.

Are any of these sentences correct?

If not, can someone tell me how to say this?

Say it is no longer run or it isn't run anymore.

Examples:
  • He ran it.
    He has run it.
    He doesn't run it anymore.

Does that help?

:)

In your examples, it is the passive, which uses the past participle (run), not the past tense (ran).
