Creating Test Case Templates from test results

This option gives you possibility of enabling the creation of Test Case Templates in the selected project. The Test Case Templates are created together with Test Cases which are based on automated tests. The benefits of this approach are:

• Created Test Case Templates can be reused - you can only add selected Test Case Templates to the Test Plan so you can limit which test results are to be imported.
• Test Case Templates and their executions in Test Cases can be linked with Requirements and tracked in TestFLO Reports.

To enable creation of Test Case Templates select the Create in current project or Create in another project. Available options:

• Don’t create - Test Case Templates will not be created. This option is marked as default.
• Create in current project - Test Case Templates will be created in the current project.
• Create in another project - Test Case Templates will be created in selected the project from the list.

After you set the creation, when you run automated tests, the Test Case Templates will be created along with the Test Cases. If the Test Case Template has already been created from the source Test Case, they will not be created again if the Run automated tests operation is used again.

Cucumber step status mapping

In this option, you can map the statuses that TestFLO receives in the Cucumber test results file to the statuses in the Steps field on the Test Case. There are three statuses from Cucumber to map Passed, Failed, and Skipped. You can assign each of these statuses a corresponding status in the Steps field. If you do not assign any status then when you import the test results TestFLO will assign the default steps status.
