How to display the reused test cases execution result

[Wei Hu]

Hi,

I use xray to manage my test case. I have 147 test cases. I put these cases to 3 test executions(I need to execute them on Android and iOS, and for different countries).  Then I put the 3 test executions to the same test plan. I'd like to see 147x3=441 test cases and their result as a overall result, but when i open the test plan I can only see 147 results. Is there a way I can achieve that?

Hi @Wei Hu

I once replied to a question here that might be similar to your point here. I´ll copy my answer and the link to the original question below:

"From my point of view:

The testcase itself is "just" a description of "which steps needs to be done" to test a special feature/functionality.

The test execution is then an abstraction of the testcase for a special setting (eg. version --> I execute the steps from a testcase with application in version 1). The testcase then reports the "current" status. 

So if the test execution with version 1 passes the testcase would say "green - passed". After deploying version 2 of the application, creating and executing a new test execution for version 2 that fails the test case will say "red - failed" because the current state is that this feature is (obviously) not working with the current version (2) proved by the test execution. "

Hi @Wei Hu 

I would suggest taking a look at the Xray's Test Environments feature. Please read this documentation page: https://docs.getxray.app/display/XRAYCLOUD/Working+with+Test+Environments

The general idea is to execute the Tests for given environments (Android, iOS, etc.). Later, you can use reports to analyze the results based on specific Test Environments or all together.

Please check the documentation above and make a small test to see if this approach suits your needs.

If you have any additional questions, please contact Xray Support (http://Xraysupport.getXray.app); we would gladly assist you.

Thank you.

Hi @Wei Hu 

Welcome to the Community!!

I guess you will still have 147 test cases when you create a test plan

What you can do is bulk import issues of those 147 test cases with iOS and the different one. Have it in test sets, and then create a plan

https://docs.getxray.app/display/XRAY/Test+Plan#TestPlan-CreateTestPlan

Let me know if you any queries

Thanks,

Thanks @Pramodh M .

Understand your answer. But if we can have a "deep copy" mode to clone the test execution and all the test execution's test, that would be better for me. I think there maybe someelse like me want to manage tests for iOS and Android easily

Thanks
