Running Tests

Manual test execution in TMS ONE is organised around Test Suites — a named collection of test cases you want to run together. This guide covers creating a test suite, executing tests, recording results, and viewing the final run report.

​

Overview

The manual execution workflow has three stages:

1. Create a Test Suite — select which test cases to run
2. Execute — go through each test case, record outcomes and evidence
3. Review Results — view the completed run report with pass/fail summary

---

​

Stage 1: Create a Test Suite

​

1. Navigate to Execute

From the left sidebar, click Execute under your project.

​

2. Create a new test suite

Click the + Create Test Suite button in the left panel.

​

3. Save the test suite

Click Save. Your test suite will appear in the left sidebar, ready to execute.

​

Stage 2: Execute Tests

​

1. Start the run

Click on your test suite in the left sidebar to preview it. You’ll see a table listing all the included test cases. Click Execute to begin.

​

2. Work through each test case

The execution screen shows one test case at a time with:

• The test case identifier (e.g. TC-001)
• The test steps to follow
• The expected outcome
• A progress bar showing how many cases you’ve completed

For each test case: a. Perform the test steps
Follow the steps listed and compare what happens against the expected outcome. b. Record the outcome Select one of the following results from the Outcome dropdown: c. Add a comment (optional)
Use the comment field to describe what you observed, especially for failures. d. Attach evidence (optional)
Upload screenshots or screen recordings (JPG, PNG, MP4, WebM — max 2 files, 100MB each). e. Log a defect if the test fails
When you select Fail as the outcome, a Create Defect button appears. Click it to log a defect directly from the failed test case. f. Move to the next test case
Click Save & Next to save your result and move on.

​

3. Complete the run

When you reach the last test case, the button changes to Complete Execution. Click it to finalise the run and generate the results report.

Re-running tests

TMS ONE doesn’t have a “re-run failed tests only” option. To re-run a suite:

Looking to automate your tests?

Once you have manual tests running, you can use the Test Builder to generate Playwright automation scripts from your test cases — no coding required.
