Attaching automated test scripts to test cases

You can attach scripts from other tools to test cases so they are automatically copied to test runs. You can add existing file or source file attachments as scripts or browse for files to attach as scripts.

1. Click the Files tab when you are adding or editing a test case.

2. Click Scripts.

3. Attach or select the script file.

  • To attach a new file, click Attach. Browse to the file and click Open.
  • To use existing attachments as scripts, click Add Existing as Scripts. Select the files and click Add.

Note:  Script files are also displayed on the Attachments tab. Script files under source control are also displayed on the Source Files tab.

4. To reorder the scripts, click the Top button, the Move Up button, the Move Down button and the Bottom button.

Scripts are run in this order when confirming that automated tests work and run in the Helix ALM desktop client.

5. Save the test case.

  • Click Save to save the changes.
  • Click Apply to save and continue working on the test case.
