Domain = `RBMS` 

Project = `Test_Scripts`

To reach the system, click connect. 

My role is tester (not requirements author)

# Modules (in dashboard)

'MY WORK' is overview of testing statistics (defects assigned to me, active defects, runs assigned to me, tests assigned to me)

## Under Testing 

- Test Resource (automation)  
- Test Plan (repo of all manuals and automated tests)  
- Test Lab (from where we start the test script execution)  
- Test run 
    - Shows a list of test runs (during different executions)

## Defects 

- opening defects 
    - closing with review

Create new folder

Create new test

No one does it this way, it's done in Excel.

Refresh gets used a lot. People developing in parallel

Modify approval for approval status.

Screen recorder (use this to record process)

Training videos (to replace manuals, which are sent in email)

## Example test script

Chech approval, can't be executed in '*draft*' status. The next step from '*draft*' is '*approved for routing*'

Approved

All approved test scripts have signatures

### Design steps

Three steps: *Step Name*, *Description*, *Expected*

## Test Lab

In the test lab, the test scripts are listed from the test plan module:

These tests have been routed for execution:

Check Details tab for approval

Manual Runner opens: 

![](https://i.imgur.com/GhSGTwF.png)

**Never cancel or exit!**

Only click 'End Run'. Database already created a RUNID, but will be created in database. This creates a gap in the system (missing run), and auditors will wonder what happened to the missing RUNID. 

### Manual Runner 

![](https://i.imgur.com/fKC4UR6.png)

Execution date and time tells me when I executed the run. Don't have executions run over the weekend. Automated test scripts are ok overnight, but not over weekend. 

Must enter text into *Actual*

![](https://i.imgur.com/5YkBHCn.png)

This should contain the expected result. Copy + paste expected and change tense. Don't use one-word ("done", "completed", etc.)

Failed test:

## Evidence 

Attach with paperclip icon: 

![](https://i.imgur.com/eJ1q68f.png)

Attachments can be for a single step, or for the entire run: 

![](https://i.imgur.com/85fz0Sp.png)

All test runs need evidence (screenshot)

## Defects 

![](https://i.imgur.com/QDoj3pV.png)


Linked defect (existing defect) or new defect 

### New defect 

![](https://i.imgur.com/rxNjbpJ.png)

Summary of defect (include CR, other information from Test Lab), Workflow (Type 1: typo, minor, etc., Type 2, **Type 3:** use this one because validation will check this)

This creates a new defect ID. 

END RUN, and enter BioMarin ID

If we pause execution, do not resume from Test Lab. Only resume from Test Run.
