When executing with a Squash TF automated runtime server such as Jenkins, if it is configured to let you decide on the execution server, a pop-up allowing you to select the server before the execution starts.

Once the test execution is complete, the execution statuses are automatically updated in the execution plan and an automated suite is created.

Automated test suites

An automated suite is systematically created after each automated test execution. The suite is generated at the iteration and test suite level. From this automated suite, it is possible to check :

  • the overall execution status of the automated suite (depending on status of the associated executions)
  • the details of the executions
  • the reports of all executions of the automated suite
