Editing Test Cycle deletes existing Test Runs

  • 1.  Editing Test Cycle deletes existing Test Runs

    Hi -
    I wanted to change the name of a Test Cycle so I opened it for editing. Afterward saving the change I noticed that the Test Run (there was only 1 in my cycle) had a different ID, all the custom fields I had filled out were cleared, and the relationships I had created between the Test Run and custom item types had been removed. I'm guessing this is expected behavior, but it would be nice to receive a warning before any test data is deleted. Has such behavior already been requested?

    Thanks,

    Theresa,

    actually I would absolutely NOT expect this to happen... I checked the use case on our installation (On Premise, 8.25.1) and was luckily not able to reproduce this.
    It is a common user case for us to edit test cycles after their corresponding test runs have been executed and I would always expect the testruns, which are contained, to remain untouched.

    On which version of Jama are you on?

    I edited test cycles to change the name and extraneous test cases entered the 2nd and 3rd test cycles.

    Hi Anna -
    Thanks for checking in.
    I'm using 8.25.
    Other details to note
        - the Test Run status was "Not Run." (We're just starting to use Jama and so I'm experimenting with a lot of sample data).
        - the Test Run was not locked.

    When you edit your Test Cycles, what's the run and lock status of your Test Runs?

    Thanks,

    Hi Anna -
    I just re-read your post and I missed some key details (you edit the Test Cycle after the Test Runs have been executed) - sorry.
    I experimented and it looks like the Test Runs are only deleted if the status is "Not Run". So no execution data is lost.

    Thanks,
