How to Use Approval Workflow for Test Cases

Heather Brooks

A lot of our customers and ourselves are using approval workflow for test cases that is designed to mimic GitHub workflow for test cases.

The process is the following:

1. You need to have at least 2 test suites for every project:
   1. Development version where the test cases are created and being debugged
   2. Always green version where only approved, ready-to-use versions reside
2. You can also setup access:
   1. Everyone have write access to always green test suite
   2. Only people who are authorized to approve test cases have access to always green test suite and can promote test cases there

Then the workflow will be as follows:

1. QA Engineer builds test case in development test suite
2. QA Lead reviews the test case and if everything is alright – click “copy” button to promote this test case to always green test suite
