Article Summary

When testing has been completed using the Run & Document process, converting either a selection or an entire cycle into a Quick Test is possible. The Quick Test script will enable users who do not have the relevant business knowledge to understand the entire test (i.e., all of the steps combined) to execute more efficiently the next time, e.g., in a regression testing cycle.

We have a new Player! Watch it here.

This article is about converting a completed test to a Quick Test.
If you wish to create a new Quick Test, click here.



Converting to Quick Tests

From within a Project - 

  1. Hover over the Tests tab and select Test Tree
  2. Right-click on a cycle, folder, business process, or a single test and select Convert toQuick Test.
  3. Select where you would like the converted test to be placed in the tree.
    The Keep the folder structure option will retain the tree structure within the destination cycle.
  4. Click Convert.
    Depending on your conversion request, you will either be able to view the converted tests immediately, or you will be able to track the status of your request by clicking on the Request Status icon. We will also notify you via email once your request is complete.

      
 Good to Know!
 Quick Tests appear in the tree view with this icon.

 
The newly generated test(s) includes three additional tabs that will help the user with the test - the Script, Planned Runs, and the Data Sets.

 

The Script Tab

The Script tab provides all steps combined in one script, broken into the different steps that were initially documented as part of the Run & Document process. This script can be exported to Word, Excel, or PDF, and depending on the need, can be edited using the functions within the steps.
To view a screenshot of the recorded step, click on the Screen icon.

The Planned Runs Tab

The Planned Runs tab will automatically include an execution activity for the entire test, based on the converted combined steps.
You can set planned runs for different script variants such as different plants, locations, permission sets, etc.
Planned Runs can be executed using the player by executing a Quick Run or using the Run & Document option.



The Data Sets Tab

Data Sets enable you to define a range of data used when executing the test. Click here to learn more about Data Sets.
