Analysis|Project Report|Test with Design Steps - is not showing the information of selected folder

Rodrigo Medina

When I select a folder in the HP ALM Test Plan and click on Analysis -> Project Report ->Test with Design Steps, the information generated on the report is not from the folder I selected (it shows information from other folders)

I'm using ALM version 17.0.1, but this problem is there since previous versions.

    Hello Rodrigo,

    Please check the default filter set in the following way:

    Go to Analysis View > Analysis Menus > Test Plan Analysis Menu > Test with Design Steps > Configuration tab > Tests > Filter section > Filter State

    The options for this filter are: Custom, Context, Selected and Current Entity Based.

    I recommend playing with the options until you get the desired behaviour.

    More information about each of them is found on the online help and pasted below:

    Filter State

    Available from: Analysis Menus tab. You must have the required administrator permissions to view this tab.

    Enables you to set filter conditions for reports that are generated from within the Analysis menu in specific modules.

    • Custom. Enables you define a customized filter in the Analysis Menus tab.

    • Special filters. The following predefined filtering options are provided:

      When adding sections to a report that lists a different entity type to the module from which the report is generated, you must use the Custom filter type. Selecting a special filter results in the section being excluded from the report. For example, if you add a Defects section to the Standard Requirement Report, and select the Context filtering option, the added section will not appear in the generated report.

      • Context. Filters information according to the filter that is currently selected in the module.

      • Selected. Includes information for the currently selected entity in the module only.

        In the Test Lab module, the selected entity is the selected test run instance, and not the selected test set.

      • Selected with Children. For hierarchical entities, includes information for the selected parent entity as well as child entities.

      • Current Entity Based. Includes information for the currently focused item in the module. You use this option to generate a report in the Test Lab module on the test set level.

    Thanks,

    Claudio Ureña
