Test Manager user guide
If you re-execute a test execution the old execution results are deleted and replaced with the new results. If you don't want to replace a test execution result, then run the test set again. This will generate new test execution results, independent from the previous ones.
The pre-defined user roles that can perform re-executions are: Test Manager, Test Executor and Manual Tester.
Re-executing test set executions
Re-run an existing test set execution, replacing the previous results with the new ones, which is useful when you want to update the outcome of a test execution rather than produce a separate record.
- Go to Execution and choose one of the following:
- Select More Options for the test execution that you want to redo.
- Open the test execution and select Tasks.
- Select one of the following:
- Execute Manually
- Execute Automated
- Execute the manual steps or wait for the automated test set to finish.
Note:
Re-executing test set executions does not display the activity coverage anymore.
Re-executing test case executions
You can re-execute one or more test case executions. For data-driven test cases, you can only re-execute one test case execution at a time. You cannot re-execute data-driven test case executions in bulk.
Even if you publish a newer version of the test case, the version that you re-execute is the same version that is recorded in the test execution.
- Go to Execution and open a test set execution.
- Select the checkboxes for one or more test case executions and then select Execute.
- Select one of the following:
- Manually
- Automated
- Execute the manual steps or wait for the automated test case to finish.
Result
The previous execution results are replaced by the new results. The updated results are available in the Execution section of the project.
