Create Test Suite from Test Case
The feature allows users to quickly create a test suite directly from a test case by copying common fields from the test case to the test suite. Users with “Create” rights for Test Suite can create a test suite from a test case.
The feature is useful when –
Users have ready test cases.
Users want to directly go to the test suite execution as soon as a test case is added.
QA Manager wants to track the execution of test cases with the same name as test suites and with the same values for common fields.
Test Suite details for Name and other common fields are auto-populated from the test case from which the test suite is created. You can make the required changes in the details afterward.
A test suite created from a test case remains as an independent entity. Any updates in the test case do not affect the test suite created from that test case.
eSignature: If the e-Signature feature is enabled for the project, you can create test suites only from "Approved" test cases.
Shareable Test Case: Test suites can not be created from a shareable test case.
The Create Test Suite from Test Case option is available at the following places:
On the Test Case list view, click the inline settings icon provided for individual test cases
On the Test Case detail page, click the settings icon at the top right corner
Pre-requisites:
User should have the “Create” rights for the Test Suite module
Do not archive existing test cases or any versions of them.
The “Create Test Suite from Test Case” option will only be available if the prerequisites are fulfilled.
On the test suite detail page, the test case will be displayed as linked to the test suite under the Test Cases section.
Create Test Suite from Test Case folder
The Test Suite is created with the test case folder name, which can be modified as required. All the test cases under the folder are linked to the test suite being created. The linked test case count is displayed while creating the test suite.
When creating a test suite directly from a test case folder, test cases are linked in the exact order as sequenced in the folder. This ensures the test suite follows the custom arrangement set by the user, improving organization and execution flow.
Right-click the test case folder and select Create Test Suite from Folder.
Pre-requisites:
Users should have “Create” rights for the Test Suite module.
The folder should have test cases in it. If the folder has no test cases, then the test suite will not be created out of the folder.
The “Create Test Suite from Folder” option will only be available if the prerequisites are fulfilled.
Shareable test case: Shareable test cases will not be linked with the test suite.
