This topic relates to the legacy Test Cases screen that provided basic test management functionality and was replaced with Test Management. Starting from release 9.7.0, this functionality is obsolete and is supported only for backward compatibility. |
A TestCase object represents a test case in QAComplete. Using QAComplete SOAP API, you can add, enumerate, update, and delete test cases.
Some string property values (for example, StatusCode) are based on choice lists defined in your QAComplete project. You can find these values in Test Management > Test Cases > Actions > Manage Choice Lists.
| Note: | The choice list of the StatusCode property requires the Passed and Failed values. |
Requirements
To manage test cases, the web service user must be in a security group that has the corresponding privileges – Read, Add, Update, or Delete – for Test Cases. You can view or set these privileges in > Setup > Security > Security Groups > Manage Security Rights > select user group.
