Editing Acceptance Test Details

This article explains how to edit Accept Test Details in Agility.

Overview

Acceptance Tests represent acceptance criteria and are typically created during the Product Planning phase, and then further refined during Sprint or Iteration Planning. Acceptance tests are called "tests" and define the required behavior of a completed item. Tests can be added to any of the following items: backlog items, defects, portfolio items, test sets, story templates, and defect templates.

Tests can be tracked in any of the following ways:

  • by Status to view the current status of the test.
  • by Time (or remaining effort estimates) directly against the tests themselves or against tasks.
  • by Results from test execution so a history of all test runs is built.

Editing Test Details

  1. Anywhere within the system, click on a backlog item title or ID.
  2. On the Story Details page, click on the Tests link at the top of the page, scroll to the Tests grid, and then click the Edit button next to the test you want to change.
  3. Modify the test details as needed, and then click Save.

Closing a Test

  1. Closing a test after it has been completed and approved, removes it from the default tracking pages and indicates that the work is complete.
