Bug Fest Instructions for Product Owners 

Test Rail Warning - If you need to add a test case to test run

Problem: While adding test cases to the existing Test Run original test case assignments are being reset.

Solution: The actual issue here is if the full test run was assigned to a user, when it is edited again in the future the assign to field will default to that user being selected in the dropdown, and when saved will re-assign all tests within to that user. The trick to prevent that from occurring would be to make sure that the "assign to" field is not set to that user's name, but instead it should be set to the blank entry at the top of the selection. This will keep all assignments to current users in tact when the edits are completed and saved.

  1. Throughout the day, monitor failed test cases in your areas.
  2. For each failed test case Product Owner reviews the problem, creates a Jira bug and links it to TestRail
    1. To link Jira bug to test case: 
      1. Select test case
      2. Click "Add Result" button
      3. Enter Jira ID into Defects field (for example, UIU-999).  Don't use URL format.
      4. Click "Save" button
    2. Use mandatory label bugfest_r1.2021 for all logged defects.
    3. Use label regression if functionality was working in prior release
    4. Set Release  filed to  "R1 2021 Bug Fix" if bug must be fixed before Q3 2020 GA deadline.
    5. Use the following Jira statuses to track bug progress:
