Merging testplan results sets
Results files consist of a series of results sets--one set for each testplan run.
You can merge different results sets in a results file. Merging results sets is
useful when:
·
Sections of the testplan are run separately (either by one person or by
several people) and you need to create a single report on the testing
process. That is, you want one results set that includes the different runs.
·
The testplan is updated with new tests or subplans and you want a single
results set to reflect the execution of the additional tests or subplans.
Procedure To merge two results sets in a results file:
1
Open the results file.
2
Use Results/Select to open the results set into which you want to merge
another results set.
3
Select Results/Merge.
The Merge Results dialog is displayed. All the results sets in the current
file are listed, except the set that is currently open.
4
Select the results set you want to merge into the currently opened results
set and click OK.
What happens
QA Organizer combines the two results sets by merging the results set you
selected in the Merge Results dialog into the currently open results set. The
open results set is altered; no additional results set is created. The date and
time of the altered results set reflect the more recent test run.
