Adding a Case Version to a Cycle

AIO Tests allows you to add your desired version of a test case to a Cycle with ease. With this feature, you can not only add the most up-to-date case version to the Cycle but also add an older case version to the Cycle. 

In this documentation, you’ll understand:

Steps to Add a Case Version to a Cycle

Step 1: To add a case version to a cycle, simply click on the Create option in the top bar menu and select Cycle from the drop-down list.

Open

Step 2: Once you click on the Cycle option, the Create Cycle modal window will appear on the screen where you need to enter the below details under the Details tab. 

• Title: It is a mandatory field where the user needs to give a relevant name to the Cycle.

• Objective: In this field, the user needs to enter the motive/reason for creating the Cycle.

• Folder: Cycles can be organized in Folders, just like Cases.

• Owner: The user can select the name of the person who is responsible for getting this Cycle executed. 

• Component: With AIO Tests, Components that were created in the Jira project become available while creating a Cycle. This feature helps to categorize and organize Cycles.

• Release: With AIO Tests, Releases that were created in the Jira project become available while creating a Cycle. This feature offers flexibility to the user. 

• Start Date and End Date: It gives the user the privilege to enter the start and end date of the testing process. You can also remove the Start and End Date individually. The system doesn’t allow the selection of the start date after the end date if the end date is already specified, and if the start date has been assigned, a user can’t select an end date before the start date.

• Tags: Tags are keywords that let you classify your Cycle in a more flexible and informal manner. They help you in searching. 

• Jira Tasks: Cycles can be linked with Jira issues that can track the work being done in a cycle.

• Attachments: Any Cycle-level attachments, like reports or documents to be used for testing, can be uploaded here.

Open

Step 3: Click on the Add Cases option at the top right corner of the Create Cycle modal window. 

Step 4: On the Cases tab, select the version of the case that you want to add to the Cycle by clicking on the version drop-down and tick the check box for it. 

Step 5: Click on the Assign Users button to assign testers to the added cases.

Step 6: On the Assignee section, select the desired cases that you want to assign to a particular user and bulk assignment can be done for the selected cases. Users can click on Go to Executions option to start executing the cycle. 

Once you click the Go to Executions option, you will be navigated to the Cycle Details screen.
