The Epic Comparison section of the dashboard facilitates comparing multiple epics for quality and complexity by 2 ratios:
- Epic Comparison by AC / Test Case
- Epic Comparison by AC / Defects
Data in this section is available only if there are any Qualitia projects integrated with Qualitia Design Studio.
Important Notes
- Dashboard data is available for duration mentioned above the date selector. You can select dates from that duration to view expected results in the dashboard.
- Use the clear (
) button to remove all the selections for that filter. Clicking this option selects all the available options for the corresponding filter. - To select multiple options for any filter:
- If you are using Microsoft Excel 2013, press and hold the Ctrl key and select required options from the list.
- If you are using Microsoft Excel 2016,
- either press and hold the Ctrl key and select required options from the list or
- use the multi-select (
) icon and then select required options from the list.
- If there is no data present for the selected filter criteria, dashboard are displayed empty.
- To view the detailed information about any bar/line from the chart, hover your mouse pointer over that bar/line.
- If a test case is executed multiple times in a selected time frame, multiple occurrences are counted while loading the metrics and charts.
- Based on the selection of items from lower filters (for example, Suite/Browser/Operating System, if applicable), Qualitia alters the project's list depending on the data availability. This condition is not applicable if any particular chart or matrix works only on the project selection.
- By default, the dashboard Excel file opens in a full screen mode due to which you may not see the menu options. However, you can continue using standard Excel shortcuts as usual, such as CTRL + P to print, CTRL + S to save and so forth.
- For charts with radio buttons, after changing any filters, reselect the radio buttons to view the expected data. Due to limited event handling procedures in Excel, you may not see refreshed data immediately after changing the filters.
- Date:
The date selector allows you to filter results based on the date of the test case execution. You can select either a single date or a date range using this date selector. You can select tenure from the available list. Available options are Days, Months, Quarters, and Years.
Dashboard data is available for duration mentioned above. You can select dates from this duration to view expected results in the dashboard.
- Project:
You can filter the results displayed on dashboard using this project selector if you want to view results for a specific project or a group of projects from all the available list of projects.
The background colors of the filter options indicate different states of these options:
- Blue background indicates that this option is selected.
- Grey background indicates that this option is not selected but the data exists for that option.
- White background indicates that this option is not selected and data does not exist for that option.
Epic Comparison by AC / Test Case Ratio
This clustered column chart gives a view on the size and complexity of an epic by calculating the ratio between the number of Acceptance Criteria containing the number of Test Cases in the epic displayed on the x-axis.
You can choose between top 5/10 or bottom 5/10 epics to be considered by selecting an appropriate option.
Epic Comparison by AC / Defects Ratio
This clustered column chart gives a view on the quality of an epic by calculating the ratio between the number of acceptance criteria and defects found when executing test cases for these acceptance criteria for the epic displayed on the x-axis.
You can choose between top 5/10 or bottom 5/10 epics to be considered by selecting an appropriate option.
