Question

Is it important to have Test Step in Test Case in Codebeamer?

I have to migrate RV&S data to Codebeamer, In RV&S we were not using Test Step and entering Expected Result in a custom field. In Codebeamer, I created a custom field called Expected Result, but it doesnt get displayed in Test Run Wizard.

Hi @PJ_11165848 

You will need to use the test steps to view the expected results in the Test Run Wizard. I recommend creating a single test step and using it to house the expected results, rather than a custom field, if you want to view that information during a test run.

 

 Please let me know if you have any further questions.

So, in a sense Test Step is a kind of necessary field in Test Case, if we need Expected Result, as without Expected Result Test Case doesnt make much of a sense by itself?

Generally, that is true. From a technical perspective, a test case without expected results can still be marked as passed or failed; however, from a practical standpoint, it is more sensible to have expected results to avoid ambiguity about what was being validated.
