how to you organize your tests directory tree ?

Post by djazz »

Hi everybody,

i actually consider moving my whole test plan (actually in openoffice files) to testlink (really nice job by the way ! Thanks for that.).
I actually structure my tests cases by functionnalities or software component, for example, we have :
- COM/NETWORK/TST-NETWORK.odt for network tests
- COM/ADSL/TST-ADSL.odt for adsl tests
and so on ...

We are thinking about the different ways we could structure our tests.

What are yours ?

Thanks !

Structure according features and kind of tests are the most common. Users can define and assign keywords to get another views on a Test specification.

We do the following:
All testcases are grouped into Test suites.
There is a basic testplan that works as a basic cataloque for testing.
The basic testplan contains all testcases / testsuites that are agreed standard test cases
For each maintanance release we create a new testplan out of the basic and eventually add or remove some testcases for new features

Bugs will be tracked in JIRA. Each created JIRA ticket is linked at the related testcase.
