Working with test suites is crucial for ensuring that applications function as intended. A test suite contains a sequence of test cases that you want to run, and this guide will help you understand how to create, execute, and manage them efficiently.

Understanding Test Suites

When testing a new feature, you want to ensure this feature works as expected without breaking existing functionalities. A test suite helps you group related test cases to validate this.

  1. A test suite is a set of test cases you want to execute in sequence.

  2. You can see the results of your test suite runs in the Real Time Reporting portal.

  3. Test suites can be used for regression, smoke, and functional testing of your application.

Managing Test Cases in a Suite

Your application has multiple modules. While some are stable, others are frequently updated. You may want to exclude stable modules from daily testing to save time. You have the following options:

  1. Mark a test case: This includes the test case in the suite's execution.

  2. Unmark a test case: This skips the test case during the suite's execution.

Your markings are saved in Qualitia Automation Studio for your reference.

📚Prerequisites:

  • Familiarity with the application you're testing.

  • Access to Qualitia Automation Studio Client.

  • Basic understanding of test cases.

  • Availability of existing test cases

  • Privileges to execute Tests.

  • Ensure test cases are published in the Ready for Execution tab before marking or unmarking in the suite.

Procedural Steps

In this section, you can find step-by-step walk through Create a Test Suite, Execute a Test Suite, View Test Suite Execution Report, Editing a Test Suite, and Removing a Test Suite.
