Execution Status

Introduction

QTM Configuration allows you to create execution status of your choice. In addition to the system defined statuses – Fail, Blocked, Not Executed, Work In Progress and Pass, you can add customized execution status that suit your organization. You can also edit such status if you need so.

The execution status is maintained at project level. In other words, the user defined execution status could be varied across different projects.
