Entering manual test results in text view

Manual test runs displayed in text view include steps and expected results as text. Markup codes indicate the type of text line.

If issues occur during the test, you can enter problem statements to indicate how the actual results are different from expected results. Problem statements, which are used when creating issues from manual test runs, should be specific so other users can reproduce the issue. For example, if you perform a step to log in to the tested application and the login fails, you can enter the error displayed or other behavior that occurs.

The Editing Manual Test Run page opens.

2. Click the Steps tab.

3. Perform each step in the manual test run. Make sure the actual results match any expected results provided.

Markup codes indicate the type of text in each line, such as steps and expected results. See Test case and manual test run markup codes.
