Test case design

Test case design helps you build a better test suite.

This topic explains what makes test case design so important. The Get Started section helps you put everything into action.

Why test case design matters

With test case design in Tosca Cloud, you'll work smarter, not harder:

  • Define your test structure once and then generate test cases from it. This helps you to create better test cases, faster.

  • Define inputs in a structured way, so that your tests cover all important scenarios. This improves your coverage.

  • Prevent duplicate or overlapping test cases with a more structured approach to creating tests. This helps you cut cost and effort for redundancies.

  • Update the structure instead of each individual test case. This simplifies maintenance.

  • Reuse your test structure for other features or versions. This helps you scale easily and reliably.

Get started

Get started with these simple steps:

  1. Check out key concepts. They'll help you understand your tasks.

  2. Create a test case. This will become your template, so make sure it covers the scenario you want to test.

  3. Create a test sheet. Specify the variations of values you want to input into your application.

  4. Create your template from your test case and link it to your test sheet. Then generate your test cases.
