Hi,

What is the copied_from field in sys_atf_step table. I have implemented the test cases in dev instance and when I am tried to move to the test instance then  Could not find a record in sys_atf_step for column copied_from referenced in this update I am getting the same error. In dev instance when I am creating the tests I have created one dummy test case and when implementing remaining test cases I have copied from that test case. After completion of my test cases I have deleted that test case. So What I should do for these errors. And what is the main cause for getting this error. IF I have done skip remote update for these errors, will it affect the tests in the test instance.

If that is causing you problems, run a fix script on your dev instance to clear that field before moving that to the test instance.

It is just a reference to that copy test record which doesn't exists anymore.

A few extra tips:

IF I have skipped/accepted those errors, will it impact on the test cases in test instance. And should I have to skip/accept those updates.

If you accept those changes, it will work OK as it will just clear that field

Thanks for your reply.
