Documenting manual tests in the testplan
Documenting manual tests in the testplan
Your QA department might do some of its testing manually. You can
document the manual testing in the testplan. In this way, the planning,
organization, and reporting of all your testing can be centralized in one place.
To indicate that a test description in the testplan is implemented with a
manual test, use the value
manual
in the testcase statement, as in:
testcase: manual
For example, the following testplan indicates that the case-insensitive tests
are manual:
Tracking manual tests
You can describe the state of each of your manual tests in a dialog in SilkTest.
This information is used in reports.
Procedure To describe the state of a manual test:
1
Open a testplan containing manual tests.
2
Select Testplan/Manual Tests.
The Update Manual Tests dialog is displayed. It lists all manual tests in
the current testplan.
