Overview
Regression testing facilitates bulk test script execution (entire suite
can be executed through regression) from a remote/local host. It provides
the option to execute Web Functional, Web Performance, Web Service Functional
and Web Service Performance test scripts in the regression mode.
Executing Test Suites from Regression
To run test suites from regression, you need to perform the following
steps:
Configure regression details as explained in Configuring Regression. If you want to
execute regression tests from a remote host, follow the instructions given
below:
Download the WebTestRegression
zip file from the Command Line
Toolkit page in Regression screen.
To view the Regression screen, click the Regression tab in any test type
screen.
Extract the downloaded WebTestRegression
zip file which will list the CommandLineWebTest.bat/.sh
files, setEnv.bat/.sh files and
the CommandLineConfigurator.html
file.
Regression execution will be invoked by QEngine at the time configured
while regression scheduling. You can also invoke the regression testing
manually.
Execute the CommandLineWebTest.bat/sh
file to execute the specified suite. This file has to be invoked by passing
the necessary arguments as shown below:
| CommandLineWebTest.bat/sh
<Path to regression home> <Server_host_name> <Server_port>
<browser> <browser_version> <Schedule_Name> <test_type>
where
Path
to regression home is the location from where the CommandLineWebTest.bat/sh
is invoked
Server_host_name
is the machine name where QEngine server is running
Server_port
is the
QEngine port to be used for connection
browser
is the browser with which the regression should be executed
browser_version
is the version of the browser with which the regression testing
should be executed
Schedule_Name
is the
ID of the configured regression details
test_type
is either
WFT / WPT / WSFT / WSPT |
Executing this command will display a screen indicating the execution
status.
