Events
Test Run Assigned
The aim of this event is to notify a user (or users) that a Test Run has been assigned, so the tester can proceed with testing.
...
- Whenever a specific Test Run is individualy assigned to some user (e.g. in the Test Execution screen), the "Test Run Assigned" event is triggered;
- Whenever a Test Execution is created, all Test Runs are assigned by default to the Test Execution assignee. In this case, the "Test Run Assigned" event is not triggered (possibly, the user will be already notified because of issue created event);
Whenever several Test Runs are assigned to some user using the bulk operation, in the Test Execution screen, the user is asked if email should be sent (i.e. if the event should be triggered).
Info title Please note The "Send mail" option is only available if there is a notification assigned to the "Test Runs Assigned" event.
