About Suites
A suite shows a hierarchical representation of the tasks that you want to test. It shows
such items as the computers that run the test, the test scripts that run, and how many
times each test script runs.
Through a suite, you can:
s
Assign test cases to computers and rerun the test cases without having to reassign
them.
s
Run test scripts and test cases on the next available computer, thus speeding up
your testing process.
