Quick Help - Computing Times using Custom Fields
Two custom fields with special name are managed by TestLink to compute times:
CF_ESTIMATED_EXEC_TIME
used by TEST PLAN designers, during Test Case Assignment to test plan, to give testers
an indication about time (IN MINUTES) needed to execute test case.
CF_EXEC_TIME
used by testers while executing test cases, to indicate time (IN MINUTES) used to run test case.
Test Link will do sum() on values present on these custom fields while creating reports
Using following SQL you can configure these Custom Fields
/*Data for the table `custom_fields` */
insert into custom_fields
(name,label,type,possible_values,default_value,valid_regexp,length_min,length_max,
show_on_design,enable_on_design,show_on_execution,enable_on_execution,
show_on_testplan_design,enable_on_testplan_design)
values ('CF_ESTIMATED_EXEC_TIME','Estimated Exec time (minutes)',2,'','','',0,0,1,1,1,0,0,0);
insert into custom_fields
(name,label,type,possible_values,default_value,valid_regexp,length_min,length_max,
show_on_design,enable_on_design,show_on_execution,enable_on_execution,
show_on_testplan_design,enable_on_testplan_design)
values ('CF_EXEC_TIME','Time used to execute test (min)',2,'','','',0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0);
/*Data for the table `cfield_node_types` */
insert into cfield_node_types (field_id,node_type_id)
values ( (SELECT id FROM custom_fields WHERE name='CF_ESTIMATED_EXEC_TIME') ,3);
insert into cfield_node_types (field_id,node_type_id)
values ( (SELECT id FROM custom_fields WHERE name='CF_EXEC_TIME') ,3);
