TestLink Tutorial

Link Defects to Test Cases in TestLink

Overview

This is a step-by-step guide to link defects to test case execution results in TestLink. We can attach relevant bugs to the Failed Test Case execution reports in the TestLink tool.

To link relevant defects we need to integrate the bug tracking tool with TestLink. TestLink can be integrated with several Bug tracking tools like Jira, MantisBT, etc.

Bug Tracking Integration

Jira Integration :

MantisBT Integration:

Link Defects

In this post, we will link the MantisBT bug to test case execution reports in TestLink.

Let’s assume a defect is logged in MantisBT with the following information:

Bug ID: 0000001

Bug Summary: Login page not working.

MantisBT Defect View Issue Page

We will link this defect to the failed test case execution report in the TestLink tool.

Test Execution

Navigate to the Execute Tests page.

Let’s assume that the Login page test case is failing. We need to attach the above relevant defect to the report.

Select the Test Case from the Left navigator tree. Mark the test case as Failed.

 

Mark Test Case Fail TestLink

Click on the green bug “Link Existent Issue” icon.

Failed Test Case Reports

That’s it. We have successfully linked the existing relevant defect to the test case execution.
