In list screens in Testersuite it is possible to make mass changes. This functionality is available for all components in Testersuite (users, Test cycles, products, requirements, test cases, test scenarios, test runs and defects).
For example, it may be convenient to close or assign a number of defects to a handler at once. Or to reassign a number of test cases linked to a requirement to the parent product in one go. And maybe as an administrator you want to set a number of users to (in)active in one go.
Users with the role Test Coordinator, Master List Administrator or Administrator have the authority to make mass changes. It works as follows:
In all list screens for the items listed above is the Change Mass button.
In this list screen, select the defects to be changed (by checking the checkboxes for these defects ). Clicking the Mass Modify button opens the following light-box:
Select the fields for which a change is to be made (by checking the checkboxes for these fields). In the example above, three fields are selected. Choose the values to be entered in the selected fields. Then when Run is clicked the changes will be made for the selected defects.
If a selected field has no value then the field is emptied. In the example above, if you select the Handler field but do not enter a value then the Handler field is cleared for all selected defects .
