Selecting individual Test Cases to define a Test Run is a very tedious task. Mass Association functionality provides a more intelligent mechanism to map Test Cases to Test Runs by using the existing relationships, already defined in the system.
Broadly, we have many existing relationships like
- Release <> Requirements <> Test Cases
- Baselines <> Requirements <> Test Cases
- Requirements <> Test Cases
These can be used to quickly map a set of Test Cases to a Test Run. For example, by clicking on Associate Button on the Test Run Screen, we get the following screen:
Selecting one of the Releases, would select all the corresponding Requirements as well as Test Cases. Later, the user can go to these tabs and unselect the ones which are not required.
Similarly we can also select Baselines OR Requirements to choose the corresponding Test Cases.
