keywords not available during test execution (in tests case)

Post by Cyrille »

Hello,

i'm new in the forum.

I use Testlink 1.7 in my company for the 1rst time.
My Test Plan begins today !

My users (senior tester role) don't see any keyword in the content of test case.
The keyword is in the navigation filter but not in the description of test case.

Do you see any reason for this ?

Have a look in:
"User administration"->"View Roles"->"senior tester"(or any other)!

There you have an overview over all rights given to this very specific user.
By default you'll have sth like this:

Keyword rights:

[V] Keyword view (read only access)
[ ] Keyword management

So the senior tester hasn't the rights to manage sth concerning keywords. Maybe you'll need to give him this rights?!

I hadn't time to have a closer look on this topoc so i maybe wrong

Regards

Tom

yes test cases are well assigned to these specific keywords.

By the way, the admin has also same problem, so it is not a profile problem.

I have found the same thing -

I can see a test case's keywords in the 'edit test case' section, but while executing I can't see them!

Filtering by the keywords is helpful but it would be even better to see the keywords assigned to the test case during test execution.

Any ideas how to get that option available?!
