Dry Run a Test Case
A dry run is a trial execution to verify whether a test case is created as per the test requirement.
The dry run test case execution results are not displayed in the Reports and Dashboard portal. A dry run covers all the task iterations and test case iterations as per the set of values defined in the associated Test Data explorer.
Before you dry run a test case, ensure that you have configured the settings in the System Execution Profile as per the requirements.

You can dry run a test case on a local environment only.
In the System Execution Profile, you can select the Keep Dry Run Reports checkbox to save the test case dry run report without overwriting the previous dry run reports.

Click the Dry Run button ( ) to dry run the test case.
If you want to stop the test execution at any step, click Stop.
