The Create Test view enables users to create Tests from one or more Test Specifications in a Test Scope. A Test represents one execution of the System Under Test (SUT) as part of a Test System according to a Test Specification.  The Create Test view itself is not configurable. It is hard-coded to use the SystemWeaver Test solution's meta model. 

However, users may want to use the Create a variant of an original test specification option which enables them to select a subset of Test Cases in a specification rather than including all of them, and also creates a variant of the original test specification instead of using the original in the Test when they create a Test. There is sometimes a need to remove a Test Case after a Test is created. If the option to create a variant is not used, a Test Case removed from a Test will be removed from the original Test Specification as well which may or may not be what you intended. The option uses a TestConfig which is configurable. This article describes how to configure the Test Feature. 

Prerequisites

• SystemWeaver's Test meta model for Test Development and Test Execution
• SystemWeaver's Feature Model and Variability model for test (see Test - Feature Model Meta Model in Feature Model and Variability)
• An installation of the SystemWeaver Explorer client (swExplorer)
• Assignment of the SW Architect role in the server

Configuring the Test Feature

1. Go to File > Configure the explorer. 
2. On the Features tab, select the Test option.
   
3. Click View example XML and copy the script as a starting point for your configuration. 
4. Click Edit configuration and paste the script in the Edit XML window.
5. Modify the configuration to meet the needs of the use case. (See the explanation of available elements below.)
6. Click Save or OK to save your changes.

Example Configuration

<TestConfig>
  <TestCaseVariantPartSIDs>ITXF;10VB</TestCaseVariantPartSIDs>
  <TestSystemVariantPartSID>10IFE</TestSystemVariantPartSID>
  <TestSystemVariantContainerPartSID>ITST</TestSystemVariantContainerPartSID>    
  <TestSpecificationVariantPartSID>TSVA</TestSpecificationVariantPartSID>
</TestConfig>

<TestSpecificationVariantPartSID> indicates the part SID for the test specification variant container, e.g., Variant of (TSVA)
