Introduction
A test suite contains a set of test cases organized in a specific order to be executed. It is usually created to test a complete end-to-end test case scenario. A test suite may also be created to test a complete set of test cases by type like a BVT, smoke test, regression, etc.
In QMetry, test suites are part of a specific cycle; however, you can copy test suites from one cycle to the next. This allows QA groups to plan out testing for a specific development cycle. Test Suites are executed against a platform that provides any needed environmental or configuration information. This is to help QA understand not just what functions were tested, but against what hardware and/or software it was tested.
Test Suites Module UI
The Test Suite module screen has the following UI.
Test Suite List View
Test Suite List View allows you to select columns to display/hide on the screen except for some mandatory columns.
Total Test Case Executions and Total Unassigned Executions are added on the list view and you can filter test suites based on these fields.
Use Case: QA Manger wants to quickly view the details of Total Test Case Executions and Total Unassigned Test Case Executions on Test Suite Screen.
Icons on Test Suite List View:
Column Icon | Column Name |
|---|---|
| Linked Platform(s) Count |
| Linked Test Case(s) Count |
| Total Test Case Executions |
| Total Unassigned Test Case Executions |
| Total Remaining Execution Time (mins) |
| Total Execution Time (mins) |
Manage Grid Columns
All grids within Requirements, Test Cases, Test Suites, and Issues module have Arrange Columns option that allows users to create a customized view of their test assets.
The view is saved for future use.
The following customization can be applied:
Show More Columns: The ability to add columns in view. If there are other columns that you think important to display on the module grid apart from the default view, then you can just select those columns to add them to the view.
Hide Columns: The ability to remove a column from view. If you do not want to include columns of less important on the module grid view, then remove column selection to hide those columns on the view.
Re-arrange: The ability to arrange the columns in a different order through drag and drop functionality.
You can search for a specific column through the search box.
Options to select all columns, clear all selected columns and restore default column selection are provided on the Arrange Columns menu.
Resize Columns: The ability to expand and reduce column width. If you want to display the full content of the column, then you may want to change the column width. To change the width of one column, just place cursor in between the columns and drag the boundary on the right side of the column heading until the column gains the width that you want.
