The results of manual testing are recorded as test reports consisting of tests. You can view testing results at a high level as test reports, which usually correspond to test plans. The tests themselves can be viewed as part of a test report, or in the "Tests" module, where they can be filtered by the required criterion, for example by tester, regardless of which report the test belongs to.
A test contains a copy of the text of the linked test scenario. This makes it possible to fill in, in parallel, different test reports created from the same scenario, that is, to test on different environments at the same time. You can store and analyze the history of previously completed reports, and in parallel continue revising the test documentation, for example for a new feature, while filling in test reports during testing of previously implemented functionality (the Kanban process).
Test reports are created based on:
- Test plans. To do this, open the test plan and click the green "+ Start testing" button.
- A set of test scenarios. Open the list of test scenarios and filter them by the required criterion. Mark the scenarios with checkboxes and, in bulk operations, choose the "Start testing" action.
- A set of enhancements. Open the list of enhancements filtered, for example, by release or iteration. Mark the scenarios with checkboxes and, in bulk operations, choose the "Start testing" action.
- A set of requirements. Open the list of requirements filtered, for example, by release or iteration. Mark the scenarios with checkboxes and, in bulk operations, choose the "Start testing" action.
- Tasks. If a task is linked to test documentation, a test report for that test documentation can be created quickly. The task itself is also linked to the report, for example in order to plan work among testers, log effort, and so on.
- Functions. To do this, link test scenarios to the system functions for which they were created. From the function tree it is easy to go to the test set and schedule testing.
- Manually, for example during exploratory testing. Open the "Test Reports" module and click the "Add" button. You can create new scenarios and include them in the report, or add previously created scenarios to the report.
Because the system lets you configure the lifecycle of test documentation, you can control the status in which testing can be started. To specify the state of a test scenario (or test plan) in which a test report can be created, use the "Artifacts" setting on the "Advanced" tab of the state.
