TestLink

Hi everyone,
I am currently evaluating some TestCase Management softwares for the company I am working for and TestLink is so far one of my favorite. But I have some difficulties in finding a way to assign one Test Case to more than one tester.

Do you know if there is a method for me to assign the same Test Case to more than one tester?

Thank you for your help, it is much appreciated,
Jonathan

I'm afraid that such feature is not implemented yet. However you can find it already in tracker as feature request.

Thanks for the quick reply, it is much appreciated.

If this feature is not implemented yet, is there a way for me to make all the testers seeing the Test Cases of the whole project without promoting them to an administration or project manager status?

Hi everyone,

Vorpal, did you find a way to solve your problem ?

Because I'm looking for the same thing…

Thanks

Hi Vorpal,

the two following parameters (in config_inc.php):

$tlCfg->exec_cfg->view_mode->tester
$tlCfg->exec_cfg->exec_mode->tester

can have the values:

all
assigned_to_me
assigned_to_me_or_free

using it you have a sort of control on which tests your testers can see and execute.

First of all go to "Test Result Update after login, you will see some menu items (depending on your role). You need to go to "Test Result Update" (Item #2, if you have SQA role only)
Select the Build number in the next screen you will see a list of build numbers you have tests assigned for. In most cases you should only see one or two builds. Follow the link in column "Build Number" for the build you are going to test.
Select the assigned test scenario you will now see all of your assigned tests for the selected build. Do not click on the assignment id (although this seems obvious, it is wrong). Follow the link in column "Assign by" instead.

While writing the Test Case the Test engineer must have to
refer the Requirement document. Also can to refer the Use
Case (developed by the Development team) but not mandatory,
its is as per company process.Test case scenarios are the only way to track the testing
and test the application functionality.Coverage is determined by the no. of test case corresponding to the requirement.

I am generally against the idea of assigning something to more than one person. If you assign anything to more than one person than shifting responsibility becomes easier. Better not assign anything to anyone if you want to assign to multiple people.

I had the same issue. To bypass the problem I created two different test plans for each of the testers (tester groups) and assigned the same test case for both plans.
