Create Test Suites
Create a test suite when you want to reuse the same group of test cases in testruns, executions, or release validation.
Open The Create Test Suite Window
To create a test suite:
- Open a project.
- Select Test Suites.
- Click Create Test Suite.
If the project has no test suites yet, the empty page also shows Create Test Suite.
Test Suite Fields
Title
Required. Use a clear name that explains the purpose of the suite.
Description
Optional. Add a short summary for when the suite should be used.
The Create button is available only after the title is filled in.
Add Test Cases Manually
Manual selection lets you choose exact test cases.
- Click Add / Update Manual Selection.
- Select the test cases.
- Confirm the selection.
Manually selected test cases stay in the suite until you remove them.
Add Test Cases By Filter
Filter-based selection includes test cases that match your rules.
- Click Add by Filter.
- Choose filter criteria.
- Apply the filter.
Filter-based selections update as matching test cases change in the repository.
Current filter areas include:
- Priority
- Severity
- Test case type
- Automation status
- Requirements
- Labels
- Created date
- Folder location
- Dropdown custom fields
Review The Selection
The create view shows selected test cases on the right side.
Selections are grouped as:
- Manual
- Filter-Based Selection
The summary table shows each source, its count, and the Total Test Cases count. If the same test case appears in both manual and filter-based selections, Hawzu counts it once in the total.
Canceling
Click Cancel to leave the create view. If you have changed the title, description, or manual selection, Hawzu protects against leaving before you confirm what to do with those changes.
Permissions
Creating test suites depends on your project access. If you do not have permission to create test suites, the Create Test Suite action is not available.
