Creating Pre and Post Execution Reports
Execution reports are crucial for validating test execution and conducting analysis.
Opkey now includes a new advanced feature: Pre & Post Test Execution Report. This feature enables the export of both Pre and Post execution reports for Test Cases and Suites.
Getting Started with the Pre-Execution Report
Login to Opkey Web and switch to the Opkey Admin Panel, by clicking the Profile button and selecting Settings from the options.
Go to Project Management.
Click on Report Management from the options.
Click on the Upload Template icon to upload a new report template if you have an existing one.
Select the template and click on Open. Only a single template can be uploaded in one go.
Otherwise, you can download a sample Validation report by clicking on the Download sample template icon.
You can download sample templates either in Doc or in Excel format.
You can update, export, and delete uploaded templates, as required.
Within your project, establish custom field tags under the "Custom Fields" tab. Upon saving these tags, their linked field names will be automatically standardized. Subsequently, employ these custom fields to access test data in exported or post-execution reports.
Note: Map the System Fields (e.g., Test Script ID, Test Script Name, etc.) in the Test Procedures table of the uploaded sample template to insert test data into the exported report.
Click on the Add Tags icon to add a new tag.
The Critical Parameter feature creates a detailed Excel Execution Report for Test Cases, showing parameter information from Function Libraries, including names, values, test case description, status, and timing.
Select the crucial parameters for inclusion in the report. In the XML file, specify the names of both Input and Output Parameters to be uploaded to the Critical Parameter tab.
Uploading data again will replace and update existing data in the tab, removing the old information.
