Tags Setting Guidance

Tags: 

When it comes to managing and distinguishing test cases and test runs, tags play a crucial role. We primarily provide two types of tags: 

a. Test cases tags 

b. Test Run Tags

Both categories of tags enable teams to efficiently organize, filter, and analyze their testing efforts.

Following are some information about how to use the tags and the way to add tags:

1. Test Case Tags:

Test case tags are used to categorize and identify specific test cases. This allows teams to group related test cases together, making it easier to locate and execute them when needed. For example, you can tag test cases with "regression," "functional," "performance," or "security" to indicate their type or purpose. These tags enable the team to quickly identify and run the appropriate set of test cases based on the current testing needs.

2. Test Run Tags

Test run tags, on the other hand, are used to categorize and distinguish different executions of test cases. The tags are typically associated with a specific test run or testing session. For example, a team may tag a test run with "sprint1", "production", "smoke", or "sanity" to indicate the context or purpose of that particular test run.

In summary, tags for test cases and test runs provide a powerful tool for teams to manage and distinguish their testing efforts. By leveraging these tags, teams can efficiently organize, filter, and analyze their test cases and test runs, ultimately leading to more effective and efficient testing practices.
