A test suite which is interrupted in its execution can be continued later. The test suite execution starts with the test case that was not fully executed.
The Continue a Test Run page lists all test suites runs of a project that have not been finished. To get a better overview about the available interrupted test suite runs, the sorting and searching functionality of the Filter / Sort panel can be used.
It is possible to search for interrupted test suite runs and sort the results of the search with the filtering and sorting options. The filtering and sorting options become visible by opening the Filter / Sort panel. The Filter / Sort panel contains two tables. The table on the left contains the filtering parameters, while the table on the right contains the sorting parameters.
Below the two tables are two buttons:
|
|
The button applies the filter and sorting criteria specified in the two tables above and presents the filtered and sorted result in the table below. |
|
|
The button clears the tables with the filter and sorting criteria and displays all projects. |
Each line in the filter table represents a criterion that restricts the result set that is displayed in the table below, i.e. the set of all interrupted test suite runs is filtered for the conjunction of all criteria listed in the filtering table.
By
clicking the
button, a new and empty row for a filter criterion is appended to the table. The
table with the
filtering criteria has
four columns:
The Field column denotes the field in the table that the criterion is filtering for. The fields which can be filtered in the Filter / Sort panel of the continue test run page page are ID, Description, Last Executor, Operating System, Version and Timestamp , as well as any user-defined properties. The process of maintaining the user-defined properties is described in section Section 6.1.1.8, “Editing the user-defined properties of a project” . User-defined properties are only available in Klaros-Testmanagement Enterprise Edition.
The Type column denotes the operator that is used for the criterion. The following operators are available on the continue test run page page:
|
Equals |
Only the items that exactly match the value of the criterion are shown. |
|
Not equals |
The items that do not equal the value of the criterion are shown in the result table. |
|
Greater than or equals |
Items that are greater than or equal the value of the criterion are shown. |
|
Less than or equals |
Items that are less than or equal the value of the criterion are shown. |
|
Greater than |
Items that are greater than the value of the criterion are shown. |
|
Less than |
Items that are less than the value of the criterion are shown. |
|
Like |
Items that have a part that matches value of the criterion are shown. |
The Value column defines the value for the filtering criterion.
The
Action
column contains a button (
)
for deleting the criterion in the current line.
The table that contains the list of interrupted test suite runs can be sorted. The criteria for the sorting are specified in the right table in the Filter / Sort panel. It is possible to specify more than one sorting option. If there is more than one sorting option, the uppermost row in the sorting criterion table has the highest priority and the lowest row has the lowest priority.
When the
;
button is clicked, a new empty row for a sorting criterion is appended at the
bottom
of the
sorting options table. Each row in the sorting options table has in
the
Action
column a
button (
).
By pressing this button the row with the sorting criterion
can be removed.
The sorting options table contains three columns:
The Order By column denotes the field in the results table that the sorting applies to. The fields that can be sorted for on the continue test run page page are ID, Description, Last Executor, Operating System, Version and Timestamp , as well as any user-defined properties. The process of maintaining the user-defined properties is described in section Section 6.1.1.8, “Editing the user-defined properties of a project” . User-defined properties are only available in Klaros-Testmanagement Enterprise Edition.
The Type column defines the direction of the sorting sequence, i.e. descending or ascending.
The Action column contains a button for deleting the sorting criterion.
Sometimes a test suite run has to be suspended due to working hours or external conditions which prevent further test executions. A tester may stop executing a test suite at any time without losing the previously logged test results. Only the result of executed steps in the current test case are lost.
To continue the execution of a stopped/suspended test suite click on the
Action
icon of the test suite (
Figure 8.11
). To delete a suspended test suite click on the
icon in the action column.
For each test case in the test suite the actions described in
Section 8.1.1, “
Run Single Test Case
”
can be applied to execute the test suite. The new test results are merged
automatically with the suspended test suite run results.
