HP Quality Center - Introduction

HP Quality Center is a test management tool.

It offers an organized framework for testing applications.

It is a web based application which manages all aspects of testing process which otherwise is a time consuming activity.

It helps maintain a project database of tests that cover all aspects of application functionality.

It can be attached to our email system so that the information about the defect can be supplied to all people concerned. For example Developers, persons in customer support and quality assurance personnel.

This can be integrated with automated tools like Winrunner, QTP, Load runner so that we can get a fully automated application testing.

Graphs and reports can be generated to analyze the information.

HP Quality Center - Introduction

Why Quality Center

• One stop shop for all testing related tasks.

• Coherence of different tasks.

• Better analysis and management.

• Easier to track

Test Management Process

Specify Requirements

Plan/Create Tests

Execute Tests

Analysis

Report and Graph Generation

Quality Center Modules

The quality center has following basic modules.

Releases Requirements Test Plan Test Lab Defects

Additional modules

Business components Dash board

Quality Center Add- ins

At times Quality center responds slow due to the client server nature of application. The response depends on many parameters like network configurations, geographical locations of testing team, load on system etc.

To overcome the network problems test wares can be first created in Microsoft word or Excel and then uploaded in QC.

To upload MS word document QC needs Microsoft word add-in

To upload Excel document QC needs Microsoft Excel add-in

To connect to QTP, needs QTP Add-in.

Release Management Module

HP Quality Center – Release Management

The application testing process begins by defining a release tree in Releases module. Here is the release management work flow.

Assign Defects

Define Releases and Cycles

Assign Requirements

Assign and run Test sets

Analyze Releases and Cycles

The foundation of the release module is the Release Tree.

Release Tree enables the modeling of the upcoming releases within a hierarchical tree structure.

A project manager starts by defining a release folder along with its releases. A release represents a group of changes in one or more applications that will be available for distribution at the same time.

After defining the release, a QA manager defines cycles. A cycle is a set of development and quality assurance efforts performed to achieve a common goal based on the release timeline.

Defining Releases and Cycles

For example, suppose you are defining upcoming releases for the sample Mercury Tours application. The Mercury Tours Application folder contains Release 10.5. This release includes four cycles. You might define the releases and cycles in the releases tree as follows:

QA manager also can assign Start date and End date for each cycle.

Assigning Requirements

After defining the releases and cycles, the QA manager assigns the Requirements from requirement module to Releases and Cycles.

Enter the details of Target Cycle and Target Release.

Assigning Requirements

Assigning and Running Tests

Once requirements are assigned, Each Test set folder from

Test Lab module is assigned to each cycle.

Once Test set folders are assigned to cycles, Test sets

are run under these folders.

Assigning and Running Tests

If an application flaw is detected while running a test set, the QA

engineer can submit a defect. Quality Center automatically creates

a link between the test run, associated release and cycle, and the

new defect.

Assigning Defects

• Following test runs, the QA manager reviews the test progress to determine how well it meets the release goals.

• The QA manager can also determine how many defects were resolved, and how many still remain open. The results can be analyzed at a release or at a cycle level.

• It also helps track the progress of the testing process in real time by analyzing the releases tree and ensuring that it matches the release goals.

Defect Management

Defect Management using QC

Locating and repairing defects is an essential phase in testing. Analyzing defects and issues is what helps managers make the “go/no-go” decision about application deployment. Quality Center helps tracking application defects and enabling you to monitor defects closely from initial detection until resolution.

Defects gives a snapshot of the application under test and tell exactly how many defects you currently have, their status, severity, priority, age, etc.

Defect Management using QC

The following things can be done in the defects module of Quality Center: Tracking defects (stages) Adding Defects Reviewing Defects Matching Defects Updating Defects Mailing Defects Linking Defects Filtering/Sorting Defects Creating/Viewing Favorite views

Tracking defects

When you submit a defect to a Quality Center project, it is tracked through these stages: New, Open, Fixed and Closed. A defect may also be Rejected or it may be Reopened after it is fixed.

When you initially report the status of the defect is New by default.

The Defects Toolbar

New Defect entry

Selecting “New Defect” button in Defect section creates a new bug. All fields marked by (*) or in red are required.

Description should have steps to recreate and test data.

Attachments and screenshots can be added.

Defect is submitted for tracking.

Reviewing open defects

Various ways to search defects in Quality center (using columns, search, or favorites).

Double click activity to review in detail, change status, or add comments.

Matching Defects

Matching defects enables you to eliminate duplicate or similar defects in your project. Each time you add a new defect, QC stores lists of keywords from the Summary and Description fields. When you search for similar defects, keywords in these fields are matched against other defects.

This filter can be set on the defects by using the "Find similar defects" button.

The results are stored in the similar defects dialog box, sorted by the percentage of detected similarity.

Updating Defect in Quality Center

When a defect needs updated go to Defect Details page.

Change appropriate fields.

Add comments.

Save by selecting OK.

Mailing Defects

On the Defect Details page click on the send email button.

Send email dialog opens. Enter valid To address, Add comments and click on Send button to send email.

You can also include the attachments and history of that particular defect..

Linking Defects

• A Defect can be linked directly or indirectly to an entity.

• When you add a defect from a test step a QC adds direct link to the step and indirect link to its run, test instance and requirement if the case is covered by the requirement.

Filter / Sort Defects

In the Defect module you can set filter to view defects with some condition. For ex: Defects detected by an user.

Click on the Set Filter/sort button

The Filter dialog opens. Select the Detected By field and click on the browse button.

Filter / Sort Defects

The filter condition dialog opens with list of all users in the QC. Select the username and click ok to apply the filter condition. Similarly you can select status as “Not closed”. Defects grid displays defects detected by selected user and whose status is Not closed (lists all defect status other than closed).

Creating Favorite views for defects

On the Defects module, select “Add favorite” from the Favorites Menu (available in the Header links).

In the Name field type “My detected defects” (for the above filtered defects).

This favorites can be added to public or private folder. Views in public folder is accessible by all users. Views in private can be accessed by the person who created them.

Select private for your defects list and click on OK to add the view name to the Favorite list.

Viewing Favorite views for defects

On the Defects module, select the list saved as favorites from the “Favorite” dropdown. The defects detected by you with status other than closed will be displayed.
