Edit a test cycle

You can edit test cycle details, such as the name, description, and start and end date.

Alternatively, you can edit the cycle details and scope. When you edit the scope, you can select which test cases are associated with the cycle. Associating additional test cases to the cycle creates additional runs, while removing associations to test cases in a cycle deletes the corresponding runs. However, you can't delete runs with data, such as "Assignee" or test run results, while editing a cycle.

To edit a test cycle:

  1. Select a Test Plan from the Test Plan tree.

    Image shows Test Runs tab selected in top toolbar, and cycle with the small black arrow highlighted on the left side of the center panel.
  2. In the toolbar of the test plan, select Test Runs.

    The screen displays the most recently created cycle and all associated test runs.
