Executing tests
Manual and automated test execution options in Test Manager, and when to use each.
In Test Manager, you have the option to execute tests manually or using automations. Manual test executions are performed directly in Test Manager, while automated executions are initiated through Test Manager and carried out via Orchestrator. Before executing test cases, it is necessary to create a test set, which is used for the execution.
Context
Automated execution refers to test sets created in Test Manager with linked test cases from Studio. Before executing automated tests in Test Manager, the test sets must already be created in Orchestrator.
You can execute all test sets using the Execute Automated option. Orchestrator is invoked for test cases linked to Test Manager. To execute test sets linked from Orchestrator, the test sets must be created in Orchestrator first.
Manual execution applies to test sets created in Test Manager, including test cases with manual steps. Manual execution can be performed for both Test Manager test sets and linked test sets from Orchestrator.
