Reduce time in creating tests by copying
an entire test suite. Rename and modify the test suite after copying. The
Copy Test Suite button on the Test Suite form copies
all the nested tests and child test suites within the test suite.
Before you begin
Role required: atf_test_admin or atf_test_designer
Procedure
Navigate to All > Automated Test Framework > Suites.
Select the row containing the test suite that you want to copy.
The Test Suite form opens.
Near the top-right corner of the Test Suite form, click Copy Test
Suite.
A progress tracker appears to confirm the status. If you click
Go to Copy, the system displays a new test suite
record identical to the copied record, except for the
Name.
Note:
If you apply filter conditions, copied
tests are added to the test suite if the conditions are met.
If any
tests or child test suites fail to copy, they are skipped and copying of the
remaining tests and child test suites continues. A warning message showing a
partial success appears below the progress bar.
Note:
You can copy a test suite
only when its in the same scope as the current scope. The Copy Test
Suite button appears only when the test suite is in the same scope.
The scopes of the tests in a suite are preserved when copying a test suite.
See Application
Scope for more
information.
If the copy operation fails, an error message appears below the progress
bar.
In the Name field, enter the name that you want to
assign to this new test suite.
Edit the tests and test suites within the copied test suite.
When you are finished making changes, click
Update.
Result
A copy of the test suite along with all the nested tests and
child test suites is created.
