Can a tester execute test case assigned to another tester?

Post by jptest »

I thought one tester can execute a test case assigned to another tester.
I vaguely recall this in 1.7.x Now in 1.9.1 it does not seem so. Did I miss
some configuration?

add to custom_config.inc.php:

$tlCfg->exec_cfg->view_mode->tester='all';
$tlCfg->exec_cfg->exec_mode->tester='all';

We were also looking for a way for testers to see test cases assigned to others. We will be trying this config.

Previously, we used user roles for this (i.e. we assigned higher roles to all testers such as Senior Testers, even Admin). I think the solution above is more appropriate.

$tlCfg->exec_cfg->view_mode->tester='assigned_to_me_or_free';
$tlCfg->exec_cfg->exec_mode->tester='assigned_to_me_or_free';
DOES NOT WORK!!!
i did a new PLAN an a new BUILD with 7 testcases without any assign.
my role is "tester" and i do not see the 7 cases.
if i change my role to "senior tester", i can see all 7 cases.
if i change the two parameters in the custom.config.inc.php to "all", i can see 7 testcases.
'assigned_to_me_or_free' and 'assigned_to_me' has got the same result.
can anybody help me please?!
i just want, that cases not assigned to a single tester can be seen by all "tester".
assigned cases should be seen by the user they were assigned to plus all "free" cases.

thanx
