#Test Cases FAQs - Management Questions

#What is a test case?

A test case is a detailed specification of what to test, how to test it, and what results to expect. It includes steps, expected results, prerequisites, and other relevant information.

#How do I create a test case?

To create a test case:

1. Navigate to the Repository page
2. Click “Add” in the sidebar header
3. Select “Add Testcase”
4. Fill in the test case form (title, description, steps, etc.)
5. Select a parent folder
6. Click “Create”

See the Creating Test Cases guide for detailed instructions.

#What are the required fields for a test case?

The only required field is the Title. However, it’s recommended to include:

• Description
• Test steps
• Expected results
• Prerequisites (if applicable)

#Can I edit a test case after creating it?

Yes, you can edit test cases if you have the necessary permissions. Click on a test case to open it, then click “Edit” to make changes.

#What is the difference between a test case and a test suite?

• Test Case: A specific test with steps and expected results
• Test Suite: A collection or folder that organizes multiple test cases

Test suites help organize test cases by feature, functionality, or test type.

#How do I organize test cases?

You can organize test cases using:

• Folders: Create a hierarchical folder structure in the repository
• Test Suites: Group related test cases together
• Tags: Add tags for categorization and filtering

See Best Practices for organization strategies.

#Can I import test cases from Excel?

Yes, you can import test cases from Excel files. Navigate to the Repository page and use the import functionality. Make sure your Excel file follows the required format.

See the Import & Export guide for details.

#What are shared steps?

Shared steps are reusable test steps that can be used across multiple test cases. This helps maintain consistency and reduces duplication when the same steps are used in different test cases.

#Can I duplicate or copy a test case?

Yes, you can duplicate test cases. This is useful when creating similar test cases with minor variations. Use the duplicate or copy functionality in the test case menu.
