If a test case is created through UI or imported from Excel, then it is identified as a manual test case. Test Cases that are created through Automation APIs are identified as Automated test cases. The Testing Type field remains read-only.

  • User Defined Fields: If UDFs are added for the test case module, then they are displayed on the Create Test Case screen and Test Case Details screen.

Archiving a Test Case

All the versions of the test case should be archived to delete that particular test case.

Archiving Entire Test Case

...

To delete a test case, first you need to archive it. All the versions of the test case should be archived to delete that particular test case.

It is a two step process:

...

Deleting Entire Test Case

All the versions of the test case should be archived to delete that particular test case.

A. From Test Case detail page

...

Once the test case is archived, it looks like below.

If requirements from other project are linked, then the requirements show Entity Key of the corresponding project.

Linking Test Suites to Test Cases

...

Open the Test Executions tab and Click on the Link Test Suites button. It opens Link Test Suites pop-up.

...

Image Added

If you want to link test suites from multiple projects, then first select one project. Search records and link them before moving to other projects. For example, User A is in Project 1 and searches for some records and link them before moving to Project 2. Else, all the selection of Project 1 will be wiped off.

A. Linking a Single Test Suite: Click on the Link icon to link the individual test suite to the test case.

...

An execution/test run is archived when either Platform/Release/Cycle/Test Suite is archived. When a test suite, platform or Release/Cycle is archived, the test executions having such test suite/platform/release/cycles associated with them will be hidden on the Test Executions tab of the test case.

The Show Test Runs with Archived Platform(s)/Release(s)/Cycle(s)/Test Suite(s)Archived Records check box is provided on the Test Executions tab. To view the test runs which are archived either due to platforms/release/cycles, select the check box in the filter.

While import any change in the status of such archived test case executions will be ignored.

...

Image Added

If test suites from other project are linked, then the test suites show Entity Key of the corresponding project.

...

  • Test Suites key will be ignored if relevant test suite with that key is not found.

  • If a single key is mentioned multiple times, it will be linked only once.

  • Archived test suites will be skipped from linking. Only unarchived version of entities will be linked.

  • Skip Duplicate Linkage is "On": If the test case is already linked with a test suite, then the linked test suite will be skipped. Only those test suites will be linked which are not yet linked with the test case version from where the linking is being performed.

  • Skip Duplicate Linkage is "Off": The test case version from where the test suite is being linked, that version will get linked to all the test suites.

Steps

1. Go to the Test Executions tab of the test case.

2. Click on the Link Test Suites By Entity Key button.

Calculation of Execution Time of a test suite:

The Execution Time of a test suite is calculated based on the Estimate Time of all the test cases in that test suite.

...

Once the test suite is executed, the Remaining Time Is calculated of for all “Not Run” test cases. Any test case with “Failed” or “Blocked” status will also be considered as the work still remains on it.

...

The following example shows the calculation of both – Execution Time and Remaining Time.

...

Once the test case is added, the user wants to add it to a particular Scope - release and cycle. For the this reason, they edit the test case and associate new release and cycle to it.

  1. Click on the Add New button to associate release and cycle with the test case. The drop-downs are enabled on the by clicking on the Add New button.

  2. Select the release(s); the cycle list is prompted for the selected release.
