Worksoft Integration
Introduction
Users can initiate the Worksoft CTM suite from QTM. Worksoft executes the tests (processes) that are part of the suite. QTM monitors the progress of the execution and after completion, imports the results of the test (processes) and associates them with the test cases that are part of the test suite.
Note: Only test case level status will be imported into QTM. The test step-level execution results will not be imported.
A new test suite gets created in QMetry on each event of fetching the results from Worksoft CTM.
Required Permissions:
Users should have the Project Admin rights to configure Worksoft with the QMetry project.
The following table shows the relevant permissions required to carry out further operations.

Trigger a New Worksoft Suite
A new test suite gets created in QMetry on each event of fetching the results from Worksoft CTM.
The test suites and test cases without steps are created. To reuse the existing test cases, the Summary of test cases will be matched. The created/reused test cases will be linked to the test suites.
The test case level execution status and execution time will be imported after execution. The test step level status will be skipped.
If there is a failure in execution, the error details will be added to the test case level.
Steps:
1. Go to Integration > Worksoft CTM Suite.
2. Trigger the new Worksoft Suite by clicking on the Trigger Worksoft Suite button.
(A) If you are executing the Worksoft Suite for the very first time, you will see the blank Worksoft CTM Suite screen.
Click on the Trigger New Worksoft Suite button either in the center of the page or at the top right corner of the screen.
(B) If you have triggered the executions before you can see the list of Worksoft Suite names on the screen.
Click on the Trigger New Worksoft Suite button at the top right corner of the screen.
The next screen shows the list of suites created in Worksoft on the screen.
You can filter the records by applying different Filters provided on the panel at left.
3. Click on the Execute button for the Suite that you want to execute in Worksoft.
4. Test Suite Fields and Test Case Fields
Once the execution is triggered, the test suite and test cases will be auto-created. These test suites and test cases will require inputs during creation.
Enter the details in the test suite field values. The test suite will be created with the field values you provided here.
This is because after the execution is triggered, the test suite and the test cases that will be auto-created will need inputs.
The Select Suite Fields and Select Case Fields screen displays the layout of fields as per the set Layout Management for that project.
5. Click on the Next button.
6. Enter the values for the Test Case system fields and custom fields.
