Create Test Suites from Requirements/Folders

Create Test Suites from Requirements/Folders

Introduction

Create a test suite directly from a requirement/folder by copying the common fields from the requirement to the test suite and linking associated test cases to the test suite. User should have proper role rights related to the Test Suite module, which are assigned from Customization > Roles.

This feature is useful –

  • when users have ready requirements with relevant test cases linked with them.

  • when users want to directly jump onto the test suite execution as soon as the requirement is added.

  • when users want to track execution of requirements with the same name as test suites and with the same values for common fields.

Pre-requisites

  • The folder must contain at least one requirement.

  • You must have ​Create​​ rights for the test suite module.

  • The requirements must have linked test cases.

The ​Create Test Suite from Folder​​ option becomes available only when the mentioned pre-requisites are fulfilled.

Create Test Suite from Requirement Folder

Test Suite is created with the requirement folder name. The test suite will link all the test cases associated with the requirements in the folder.

To create a test suite, perform the following steps:

  1. Right-click on the requirement folder.

  2. Select ​Create Test Suite from Folder​​ option.

    Creating a test suite from a requirement folder, associates all the test cases with the requirements within that folder.

Create Test Suite from Requirement

Pre-requisites:

  • You must have the “Create” rights for the Test Suite module

  • Requirements should have test cases linked to them.

  • The existing requirement or its version must be in unarchived state.

     

The “Create Test Suite from Requirement” option will only be available if the mentioned pre-requisites are fulfilled.

  • On the ​Requirement list view​​, click the inline cog icon for the requirement and select the ​Create Test Suite from Requirement​​ option.

  • On the ​Requirement detail page​​, click the cog icon at the top right corner and select the ​Create Test Suite from Requirement​​ option.

  • Test Suite Name and common fields are automatically filled in from the requirement it was created from. You can make changes if needed.

  • Associated Releases and Cycles are automatically selected during Test Suite creation.

  • You can create another Test Suite from the same requirement by adding more test cases later.

  • Once the test suite is created, link platforms to the test suite if not linked.​

  • The user can then assign testers and track test execution history.​

  • The test suite created from a requirement remains as an independent entity. Any changes to the requirement do not affect the test suite created from that requirement.

Requirements Imported from Jira

To create a test suite from the requirements folder that contains requirements imported from Jira, perform the following steps:

  • Right-click on the folder which contains the external entities.​

  • Select ​Create Test Suite from Folder​​.

Test Suites are created with all the test cases that are linked with the requirements in the folder.
