ALM: User Guide

Using custom actions, you can configure a manual launch of the required automated tests. The example below shows what such a custom action can look like for a specific product build (version).

When the "Run regression" menu item is selected, a webhook runs that starts a job on the build server, within which:

• a test environment is created;
• the specified automated test is started, for example a regression test;

You can create a custom action for a specific test plan or test scenario. To do this, create custom attributes on the scenario that store the data required to launch the automated test, for example the automated test class name and the method name. Then, in the URL of the custom action, you can refer to the scenario attributes.

In this example:

• ClassName — a custom scenario attribute containing the automated test class name;
• MethodName — a custom scenario attribute containing the automated test method name.
