Test run groups

Learn how to group related test runs logically to improve tracking and efficiency.

Organize related test runs into logical sets called Test Run Groups. Grouping test runs helps you manage and track your testing efforts more efficiently, especially for large projects like regression suites, feature-specific tests, or release candidates and so on.

By grouping test runs, you can:

• Visually organize your test runs list.
• Perform bulk actions, such as assigning all runs in a group to a specific tester.
• Link an entire group of runs to a Test Plan in a single action.

Create a test run group

You can create a run group in two ways:

• By grouping existing test runs from the list view, or
• By creating a new group when you create/edit a test run.

From the test runs list view

Use this method to group existing test runs.

1. Navigate to the Test Runs list view from the left navigation bar.
2. Select the checkboxes next to the test runs you want to include in the group.

3. Click Add to Run Group button that appears at the top of the list.

   

4. In the Link to Run Group dialog, select an existing group or choose Create Run Group to create a new one.

   

5. If you are creating a new group, provide a Name and an optional Description.

6. Click Create and then Link(or Link if using an existing group).

   

You have now created a new run group and associated the selected test runs with it.

Create or edit a test run

You can assign a test run to a new or existing group directly from the Create New Test Run window.

1. Navigate to the Test Runs list view from the left navigation bar.
2. Create a new test run or edit an existing test run.

3. Locate the Run Group field on the form.

   

4. Select an existing run group from the dropdown or select Create Run Group.

5. If creating a new group, enter a Name and Description in the dialog.

   

6. Complete the remaining of the test run details and click Create.

Your new test run is now created and automatically placed within the specified run group.

View grouped test runs

By default, the test runs list view displays an ungrouped list. You can switch to a grouped view to see test runs organized by their assigned group.

1. On the test runs list view, click the Display Settings icon (grid icon) located beside the search bar.

   

2. In the Display Settings panel, click the dropdown for Group test runs by.

   

3. Select Run Group from the list.
4. Click Confirm.

The test run list view now displays your runs in collapsible sections, with each section representing a Run Group. Test runs that are not part of any group will appear under a default heading like “Ungrouped”.

Perform bulk actions on a test run group

Once your view is grouped, you can perform actions on all test runs within a group simultaneously.

Add all test runs in a group to a test plan

Link all test runs in a group to a specific test plan to consolidate reporting and tracking.

1. Make sure the test runs list view is in grouped view based on run groups.

2. Click the more options (⋮) menu next to the run group header.

   

3. Select Add Runs to Test Plan.

4. In the Add to Test Plan dialog, select the desired Test Plan from the dropdown.

   

5. Click Save.

Edit a run group

You can change the name or description of a Run Group at any time.

1. From the grouped test runs list view, find the group you want to modify.

2. Click the more options (⋮) menu on the group’s header and select Edit Group.

   

3. In the Edit Run Group dialog, update the Name or Description.

   

4. Click Update.

The run group’s details are now updated.

Delete a run group

If a run group is no longer needed, you can delete it.

1. From the grouped test runs view, find the group you want to delete.

   

2. Click the more options (⋮) menu on the group’s header and select Delete.
3. Confirm the action in the confirmation dialog.
