Rational TestManager - Executing the Test Script

Running the Test Suite

•       To run the test suite, click on the toolbar button that looks like a running man.

 

•       The following window opens:

 

•       Click the “Options” button

•       Make sure the options are set according to the following screen-shot

 

•       Click “OK” on the Options window and on the Test Suite window to begin running the suite

Running the Manual Test

•       This brings up the first ManualTest script.


•       Normally, we would perform each step with the program to be tested, marking each verification as pass or failed, but for our tutorial, let us simple pretend we have actually done each step

•       On the First ManualTest script, mark each step with a check mark under results, and the verification point as Pass as shown and click done.

•       On the Second ManualTest script, mark each step with a check mark under results, but mark the verification point as Fail as shown.

•       Under Result Details, fill out a detail like “The order history did not match the order”. Click “Done”

 

•       This will bring up the Test Log with the results displayed.


Analyzing Test Results

•       The Test Log with the result of the test will come up.

•       Since one of our tests passed and the other failed, this will be reflected in the Test Log

•       Even if a single verification point fails in a test, the entire test will reflect as Failed.

 

•       Click the Details tab at the bottom of the Log.

•       You can expand the test cases to see the steps and exactly which Verification point failed.

•       You can also right click on a failed verification point and click properties to see the failure details.

 

 

•       After reviewing the test results, click the “Test case Results” tab at the bottom of the Log.

•       We can now promote the results for reporting. To do this check the “Promoted” check boxes.

 

•       Close the Test Log, and when prompted to save the test case results, select “Yes”.

Report & Monitor Test Progress


Predefined Reports

•      TestManager has several predefined reports that can be run to keep track of testing progress and results.
•      To see a list of predefined reports available, click the Analysis tab on the Left Pane

 

Test Distribution Report

•       Expand the folder called “Test Case Distribution”

•       These reports provide information on test progress against test inputs or the test plan.

•       Right click on the report titled “Test Input Development Coverage” and select Run

 

•       This will bring up the window shown on the bottom right.

•       This report shows the requirements we wrote earlier along with the number of Test Cases for each requirement and the number of these that have been implemented, ie have a Test Script associated with it.

 

Test Case Results Report

•       Expand the folder called “Test Case Results Distribution”

•       These reports provide information on results of the Test Cases we defined.

•       Right click on the report titled “Test Plan Execution Coverage” and select Run

 

•       In the Select Test Logs window, expand until you see our Test Suite “Classics Online Test Suite” and move it to the Selected Test Logs group.


Test Case Results Report: 

The following report will be generated for you.



•       This report shows you the number of Test Cases implemented in the particular suite as well as whether the passed or failed

•       You can also create custom reports to generate reports according to the requirements of your specific project
