How to run a Scenario Test
« on: January 13, 2021, 07:43:40 pm »
I have recently started exploring the testing capabilities that EA offers. More specifically, I am interested in Scenario and System testing.
However, all the examples I have found online as well as the official EA User Guide, only refer to how a test can be created and how to generate related documentation,
but they do not show if/how such test can actually be run from within EA.

I have created a Scenario test and I want to execute it from the EA interface, but there are no instructions on how to do so. I see in examples that people fill in the 'Result', 'Run by', etc. fields. Where are we supposed to find this information from?
There is some documentation about how JUnit tests can be executed, but I believe this is not what I need at the moment.

Thus I would like to know if it is possible to execute a Scenario test and if there are any examples on how this can be achieved.

Thank you

I believe the NUnit and JUnit stuff is the only part that supports actually executing tests.
https://www.sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/15.2/visual_execution_analysis/xunit_testing.html

The rest is to simply record the results of the (manual or automated) tests.

I have used EA before to manage the test definitions (based on use case scenarios), but never to store the results of the test execution.
We used other tools to manage the test execution.
