Reports of the Preparation phase

Requirement Reports

You can generate requirement reports in PDF and Word formats.

Info

To generate PDF requirement reports, install the PDF requirements report plugin.

They can contain:

  • all the requirements of one or multiple projects;
  • one or multiple requirements from one or multiple projects;
  • the requirements associated to a milestone.

They can also contain additional information such as:

  • the test cases verifying the requirements;
  • the links with ohter requirements;
  • the requirements folders' information.

It is possible to select the order in which items are displayed in the report: alphabetical or positional.

Create requirement report

Info

For the report Requirement Report (PDF format), the printing options Print associated test cases, Print attached requirements, Print folder information are not available.

Focus

  • You can only select projects or requirements when you have selected one of these options. Otherwise, by default, Squash will display all the requirements of the first selected project;
  • If the option Print last requirement version only is checked, only the last version of the requirement will be in the report. Otherwise, all versions of the requirement will be in the report;
  • In MS Word, the summary and index of the requirements must be manually updated. For this, select them and press F9.

Test Case Reports

You can generate Test case reports in PDF and Word formats.

Info

To generate PDF Test case reports, install the PDF report plugin.

They can contain:

  • all the test cases of one or multiple projects;
  • one or multiple test cases of one or multiple projects;
  • the test cases associated to a milestone;
  • the test cases associated to a "tag" custom field.

They can also contain additional information such as:

  • the test steps;
  • the custom fields associated to the test steps;
  • the requirements linked to the test steps;
  • the number of attachments linked to the test steps;
  • the test steps of the called test cases;
  • the parameters and datasets;
  • the associated requirements;
  • the test cases folders' information.

It is possible to select the order in which items are displayed in the report: alphabetical or positional.

Create test case report (PDF)

Info

For the report Test Case Report (PDF format), the printing options Print the step's linked requirements, Print attachments steps and Print folder information are not available.

Focus

  • You can only select projects or test cases if you have selected one of these options. Otherwise, by default, Squash will display all the test cases of the first selected project;
  • The printing options are checked by default, but their sub-options are not;
  • In Word, the summary and requirement index must be manually updated. For this, select them and press F9.

Requirement Coverage Report

The Requirement coverage by tests report is a dashboard to monitor the test cases' functional coverage of the requirements.

This report is generated from the perimeter of one or multiple projects or one of a milestone. You can choose one of two monitoring dashboards:

  • the requirements coverage table;
  • the project's requirements list.

Requirement coverage

The Requirement coverage dashboard contains the total number of requirements by project and their distribution by criticality and by status. You can see the requirements coverage percentage by at least one test case for each category. At the end of the document, in the blue part, there is the total coverage of all the selected projects.

The Project requirement list displays the version and criticality of each requirement as well as the number of test cases covering them.

Info

You can export the generated reports in different formats:

  • The Requirement coverage dashboard can be exported in the formats: .pdf and .html;
  • The Project requirement list can be exported in the formats: .xsl, .csv, .pdf, and .html.

Reports of the Execution phase

Execution Progress

The Execution progress report is a dashboard to monitor test executions. On the Report selection page, when you click on Execution progress, the blocks Information and Criteria appears. The Criteria enables you to determine the campaign perimeter for the report:

  • Report perimeter: You can select, one, several, or all campaigns to generate the execution progress report;
  • Schedule: You can enter the start and end dates (actual or scheduled dates). These fields are optional;

  • Campaign status:

    • All (default value);
    • Ongoing: campaigns with at least an iteration and a test case with the status "Ready" or "Running";
    • Over: campaigns with no iteration containing a test case with the status "Ready" or "Running".

For this report, two tables are generated: The Campaign monitoring dashboard contains the campaigns' schedule and the details of the test cases' execution statuses by test suite.

Campaign monitoring

The Test case list by campaign displays a detailed list of the test cases by campaign, iteration, and test suite, along with their execution status.

List of test cases

Info

To export Execution progress reports, follow the same procedure as for Requirement coverage by tests reports.

Qualitative Progress

The Qualitative progress report enables you to get a quick overview of the requirements covered by the executed tests, and those who are not. You can generate this report from the perimeter of one or multiple projects.

For this report, two tables are generated: The Qualitative Coverage Dashboard gives you the number of requirements that were tested and validated in the campaigns, iterations, and test suites the project contains.

Qualitative Progress

The Requirements list with associated execution status is detailed, with the requirements and the execution status of their test cases by campaign, iteration, and test suite.

Campaign Report

Warning

This report is available with Squash Premium, Ultimate, or SaaS license.

The Campaign Report enables you to generate an editable report with these campaign details: details of the requirements and tested test cases in the campaign's iterations, requirements coverage rates, issues details with bugtrackers Gitlab, Jira, Redmine, Azure, Mantis, and Bugzilla. It is generated in Word format to enable you to edit it.

It contains, for only one campaign of a project and its iterations, the following information:

  • the campaign's information;
  • its iterations;
  • its schedule (if provided) and that of its iterations;
  • its number of test cases by execution status and that of each iteration;
  • its total number test cases and that of each iteration;
  • its execution progress percentage and that of each iteration;
  • its requirement functional coverage according to their criticality;
  • the requirement functional coverage according to their criticality for each iteration 1;
  • the campaign's number of issues by criticality and status according to their type 2;
  • the list of all its issues 2;
  • the requirement and test case details according to their criticality or weight for each of its iterations 3.

Focus

  • To retrieve the details of GitLab, Jira, or Redmine issues, you must provide your login credentials for the bugtracker in the Bugtrackers workspace. This option does not work for other bugtrackers;
  • In Word, the summary must be manually updated. For this, press F9.
  • In the Campaign report, you must manually complete the text highlighted in yellow.
  • This Campaign report is only useful if your campaign has iterations.

Iteration Report

Like the Campaign report, the Iteration report enables you to generate an editable report with these iteration details: details of the requirements and tested test cases in the iteration, requirements coverage rate, issues details with bugtrackers Gitlab, Jira, Redmine, Azure, Mantis, and Bugzilla. It is also generated in format Word to enable you to edit it.

It contains, for only one iteration of a project and its test suites, the following information:

  • the iteration's information;
  • its test suites;
  • its schedule;
  • its number of test cases by execution status and that of each test suite;
  • its total number of test cases and that of each test suite;
  • its execution progress percentage and that of each test suite;
  • its requirement functional coverage according to their criticality;
  • the requirement functional coverage according to their criticality for every test suite 4;
