Adding run-time test variant values

Test variants are variable attributes of a tested application, such as operating systems, databases, or client types. In test runs, you can add additional variant values to indicate areas covered during testing that were not already indicated.

For example, you are testing a Windows application that supports multiple languages. The project includes two test variants: Operating System and Language. A test run is generated based on the Windows value in the Operating System test variant. No values are selected for the Language test variant. To indicate that you only tested the English version of the application, you can add the English value as a run-time variant to the test run.

Note:  Additional test runs are not created when you add test variant values to a test run.
