Resolving test run generation errors

Errors are displayed if test runs cannot be generated or regenerated. Errors may occur if the test case is open for editing, the test case syntax is incorrect, file attachments are not found, the test case is not in a workflow state that allows test runs to be generated, and other reasons. You must correct any errors in the test cases before generating test runs.

1. The Test Run Generation Failures dialog box opens when generating or regenerating test runs.

The test case number that test runs could not be generated for and the problem are displayed.

2. Click Copy error list to view the problem text and copy it to the clipboard. You can select text for individual errors or click the check box in the column header to select all error text.

3. Click Open Test Run Suite to open the test run suite if the test runs were generated from a test case suite.

4. Select a problem and click Correct and Retry to automatically fix the test case errors or Edit to manually fix them. This option is not available when generating test run suites.

You must manually correct errors if Helix ALM cannot automatically correct them. Generate test runs again after correcting the test case. See Generating test runs.

5. Click Close when you finish.
