Test case scenario
Scenario is a set of steps that either a manual QA engineer or your test framework need to follow to check if the software is working as expected.
Manual test cases
In the Test cases section, select a test case.
On the Overview tab, go to the Scenario section.
Type the step description into the text box and press Enter to add the next step. Drag and drop steps to change the order or create substeps. To add an extra line to the description, press Shift + Enter.
Clicking on
⠿
will display a list of actions. Using it, you can:- Add tables, text snippets, and files to a scenario.
- Add steps with expected result.
- Add shared steps.
- Convert steps to sub-steps and vice versa.
- Move steps up and down.
Some of these actions can also be performed using keyboard shortcuts.
Using keyboard hotkeys when editing scenario steps
This is effective starting from Allure Testops ver. 4.23.0 and onwards
We've added new mechanics of selecting steps In Allure Testops 4.23.0.
When end users edit a step and they want step to be deleted without using mouse, such step need to be selected. To select a step end users need to press Esc key; step edit field then looses the focus and step becomes selected (you could see similar behaviour when using Jupyter notebooks). Then step can be deleted using the keyboard shortcuts, which can be found in the step context menu as per image above.
The keyboard shortcut Delete will work only for selected step.
Automated test cases
An automated test case in Allure Testops is the outcome of an automated test results processing. Allure Testops generates test cases based on the information received from the test results, and enriches these test cases results with the meta information provided by your test framework and Allure Framework integration.
You can get the most from your test results by using Allure Framework.
Scenario of an automated test is created in your code. To have the split of the actions in your test cases code into steps in the test cases, you need to use Allure Framework.
The concept of a step in the test case's scenario is described in the documentation of Allure Framework here.
