Enforcing an execution order

You can set a specific execution sequence for test cases within a test set or a test execution. This sequence determines the order in which the test cases run initially. However, any changes to the order within a test execution do not affect the order in the test set. So, the sequences you set within a test set and a test execution operate independently of each other.

Note: You can enforce a specific execution order only for statically assigned test cases, with dynamically assigned ones following in a random order only after the static ones have been completed.

Steps

Determine where you want to reorder the test cases within your project:
- Within a test set.
- Within a test execution.
Enable the Enforce Execution Order toggle.
- Go to Test Sets, and then to the Configuration tab, and select the Enforce Execution Order toggle.
- Alternatively, if you want to reorder within a test execution, go to Execution, and then to the Settings tab, and enable the Enforce Execution Order toggle.
After you've enabled the execution order, return to the tab where you see the test cases. Depending on where you've activated the enforcement, follow these steps:
- If you're within Test Sets, return to Test Cases and select Reorder.
- If you're within Execution, return to Results and select Reorder.
This opens the Reorder test cases view where you can arrange the order of test case executions.
Drag and drop test cases to reorder them in the test set or test execution.
When you finish reordering the test cases, select Save.
