Test Asset Workflow

Silk Central 20.6 provides a number of improvements for the test asset workflow:

  • Silk Central now offers a dedicated permission that allows users to approve tests.
  • You can now declare a test obsolete from all workflow states. Previously this was only possible from the workflow state approved.
  • The workflow state of a test is now visible in the Assigned Tests grid of an execution plan.
  • If not approved tests are assigned, a warning now displays on the Run dialog and when clicking Start Testing Cycle.
  • When a test is started or synchronized, a message is added to the result documenting the workflow state.

Linked fields

Attributes based on global lists can be grouped, which can be used to define depending fields, where the available values of one list depend on the selection in the other list.

User list attributes

Silk Central 20.6 provides the new attribute type User List. The values of User List attributes are defined from system values according to the users assigned to a project.

Tests grid enhancements

The tests grid now displays information about the used source control profile and it allows you to filter for it.

Multi-edit in the tests tree

Silk Central now allows you to edit multiple objects in the tests tree through the context-menu. You can edit the property values and attributes values for several tests at once.
