Test Case Id is not in sequence

Post by prabhat »

When ever we create test castes the ID which is automatically generated is not in sequence.
For one test case it comes 6 and for other it comes 9.

It should be in proper sequence like 6,7,8,9......

I will try to explain you why this happen:

We are using one and only one field to get internal id for the vast majority of objects: the id on node_hierarchy table.

That's the reason why you see numbers change in some random way.
Pleas be patiente
