Monitor your progress
As you create and execute tests against each successive build of your application, you will want to keep track of your progress. The reports provided in Rational TestManager allow you to track the progress of defining test cases for your requirements, creating and associating test scripts with your test cases, and executing your test cases. In this section you will run two reports that will provide information about the progress of testing.
Rational TestManager has several predefined reports that you can run to track test development progress and results.
If you look at the Analysis tab, you will see a list of all the reports available. You will be working with the reports in the group called Test Case reports.
Running a test case distribution report
One predefined report provides information about your progress on creating and implementing test cases.
- Click on Analysis in the lower left corner.
-
Expand the folder labeled
Test Case Distribution.
These reports provide information on test progress against test inputs (requirements) or against the test plan (test cases). The last two reports in this group are used to provide information about test cases that are affected by modified requirements. You can use the reports out of the box, modify them, or create your own. For this tutorial, you will use the predefined reports.
- Right-click on the report titled Test Input Development Coverage and select Run.
When the report displays you will see a list of test requirements (from either RequisitePro or Microsoft Excel) in the first column of the report, similar to the one that follows.
(Note: If you do not see the information as shown here, close then reopen your Test Inputs and Test Plan windows and select Refresh All.)
The second column displays the number of test cases planned for each input. The third column contains "Implemented Test Cases", which refers to test cases that have manual or automated test scripts associated with them. You should see a "1" next to "Automatic employee notification of orientation" and "Manual employee notification of orientation". In the final column is the percentage of inputs implemented. The two inputs that have test cases and test scripts should show 100%. This number then rolls up to the top level group of inputs.
Running a test case results report
The next report that you will generate will report on test results rather than test planning and development.
- Expand the folder Test Case Results Distribution. You should see two reports.
- Right-click on the report Test Plan Execution Coverage.
- In the Select Test Logs window expand Build 1 then the Default folder.
- Click on the test log then click the > button to move it to the selected Test Logs groups.
- The following report will display.
- Expand the folder Orientation Notification.
You will see test case results in the following report.
The results of two test cases display in this report. One test case passed and the second test case failed. This is one example of the many pre-built reports available to assist you in monitoring and evaluating the testing progress. You may also create custom reports to generate the information that will meet your team's reporting and data collection standards.
