Check a Test Case Out and In

 

Overview

 

Test cases are normally embedded in the Solution document. There are some situations where it is advantageous to separate one out into a separate document. Because they are semi-structured with bookmarks and tables, it is unsafe to separate them out manually.

 

This page describes the use of a DoxRunner operation to extract a test case out into a separate document and, if necessary, checking it back in.

Check out

 

Follow the steps here to extract a test case from the Solution document into its own document. The test case remains in the Solution document unchanged.

 

1. Open the Solution document and initiate DoxRunner from the Quick Access toolbar.

2. Select the test case you want to check out.

3. Press the Test Case Operations button.

 

CheckOut

 

4. Select Check out.

5. Press the Apply button.

 

The test case is extracted and placed in the same folder as the Solution document.

 

The name of the document is the same as its name in the Solution document.

 

A bookmark is added to the top of the Solution document. It is used to warn the user that the test case was checked out and that version may have been updated, making the version in the Solution document out of date. The bookmark is deleted when the test case is checked back in. It can also be manually deleted.

 

Check in

 

Checking in a test case is only needed if it was changed since it was checked out.

 

Follow the steps here to replace the version in the Solution document with the external version. The name of the external version must be the same as its name in the Performance Test Support document.

 

1. Open the Solution document and initiate DoxRunner from the Quick Access toolbar.

2. Select the test case you want to check in.

3. Press the Test Case Operations button.

 

CheckIn

 

4. Select Check in.

5. Press the Apply button.

 

The test case replaces the version in the Solution document.

 

 

 

The Solution document is not automatically saved - you must check it and save it, otherwise the old version will remain.
