Project Settings

Automation Preferences


  • When creating new Test scenario/Test case in Project, Automation Attributes Features

The Automation Attributes panel will be displayed on the details page only when the Automation Attributes Features is enabled under QMetry > Configuration > Project Settings.

The automation attributes are displayed on the test case details page.


  • Automation Summary file attachment for selected project

An option is provided to disable the display of automation summary attachments within issues imported via automation API. By default, the option remains "enabled" and users will see attachments for issues imported through Automation API.

Once the option is disabled for the project, the attachments are not displayed at the bottom of the automation issues.


Execution Preferences

  • Automatically propagate Test Step Execution result to Test Case: 


Users can set preference to update test case execution result based on its test step execution result.

Use Case: Testers want to auto update the test case execution status based on test step execution status. For example, if a test steps is failed, then the test case should also be failed.

If the option is enabled

  • when the user executes a test case step, the execution result of test case will be changed according to the priority of execution result set from Execution Results (QMetry Configurations > Execution Results).
  • when the user executes a test case, the execution result of all underlying test steps will be also changed same as test case status.

If the option is disabled, then the functionality will work as it was working previously - on changing the test case status, test step status will not change and vice versa.


Import Utility and Automation: Test Case execution result will be changed according to test case step status. If the user changes test case status, then test step status will not be changed.


Note:

  • Default priority of Execution Result is - Blocked, Fail, Work in Progress, Not Executed, Pass.
  • Users can change Priority of only custom statuses. Priority of default statuses cannot be changed.


  • Configure Execution Result shortcut buttons

You can customize the view of Execution Result buttons displayed on the execution screen. Open the drop-down, select Execution Results on the list and click Save. The Execution Status buttons will be displayed accordingly. You can also select custom execution status to display as buttons. Custom Execution Results are added from Execution Results section under Configuration.
