Linking ATF tests into Test Management

[Charlotte10]

Hi all! Does anyone know if it's possible to link ATF tests into the Test Management module?

Greetings Charlotte,

 In what manner would you like them linked? Certainly you could link them, but it really depends on what level of linking you wish to have. Do you wish it to be a test step - running an ATF suite - and roll those results back into the test step? I have not seen anyone do this, but it seems possible. I have more often seen it tied to stories than test management.

Hi Andrew - thanks for getting back to me, that's great to know!

Yes this is what we were thinking! Essentially, we'd like to create a sort of all encompassing "Testing repository".

Mainly so that our users have a central dashboard area where they can view and run their ATF steps, suites and result, but also store evidence of manual testing (for those areas that ATF does not currently cover).

It'd be a big help for managing large platform upgrades and patches which is why I was wondering if anyone had similar experience.

Hi, I'm looking to do something very similar. I tried to add a reference between a Test Management > Test Case and the ATF tables are not available! 

Seems to me that the logical flow is 

    Project > Test Management / Test Case development > ATF regression test development 

It would be really good to be able to roll up results. 

Any thoughts on the mechanism to create such a link?

I agree the test management test steps should come first and then transition select steps into a new test in ATF
