get back 1.6.x behaviour of saving results?

Post by jsm »

Hi,

in 1.6.3 there was a different behaviour of result handling during test execution:
if the whole test plan was selected in execution tree there where only 'save results'-buttons above and below of all testcases. It was possible to add results to some of the testcases and by pressing the save-button, all those results have been saved while the remaining testcases stayed unchanged.
If a single testcase was selected, the save touched only the results belonging to it.

In 1.7.1 I see only save-bottons in each testcase. If I enter results to a number of testcases I have to come back to the page, where I wrote them, and save the results one by one.
Is there a configuration which bring back the possibility to confirm several changes in one action. Of course the state of the other testcases in test plan should stay untouched.

On 1.6.3 was possible because the NOT RUN Status was present
On 1.7.x this status has been removed.

Just try using config paramenters con cfg/const*

where you can select what status must be present at UI level.

Try and let us know

I added "not_run" to $g_tc_status_for_ui and changed $g_tc_status_for_ui_default from "blocked" to "not_run" in cfg\const.inc.php.

The state is correctly shown in the UI, but button 'save results' still only affects the testcase it belongs to.

Is there a way to enable a kind of 'save all results' button (for example besides 'print' and 'show complete history' in the header - like it was shown in 1.6.3)?
Or is it possible to change the behaviour of the existing buttons in a way like 'if only one testcase is shown save it's results; if several tc are shown (i.e. all belonging to the selected suite), save results of all those testcases?
